Matchbox-sized with a rhubarb-red facade, Jolene Redchurch is the kind of spot that looks like it was dipped in jam and dusted with flour. Inside, it’s all stripped-back wood, golden pastries, and a gentle hum of weekend chatter. Croissants are crisp, bread is chewy, and morning buns seem to vanish as soon as they’re shelved. Claim one of the tiny benches outside if you can – a front-row perch for Shoreditch people-watching with a coffee and something sugar-slicked in hand. 

Another one to add to the list of Soho House's incredibly cosy stays. Redchurch Townhouse is not only in a prime location, that's before even mentioning Cecconi's just downstairs, but it also oozes with comfort and luxury. 

Get ready to get psyched and London’s very best spinning studio. With locations all around London – we’re partial to Shoreditch or Oxford Street – the team at Psycle gets your heart rate up no matter where you are. Interested in chilling out as well as getting amped up? They also have yoga and barre. 

The United States does not have exclusive rights to great bagels, whatever they may tell you. Head down to Brick Lane to scoop up some seriously good bagels (or beigels depending upon whom you ask) and great schmear. Beigel Bake is a serious London icon that’s not to be missed!
