LOCAL AREA
Outside of lockdown, the buzz of City workers during the week transforms in the evenings and weekends to a highly desirable and unique London destination with Brick Lane, Spitalfields Market, Columbia Road Flower Market and Shoreditch High Street right on your doorstep. Add in art galleries and some of London’s best boutiques and you have one of the world’s most vibrant and exciting places to live.
Here's some of the top places that will be worth checking out nearby:
👚 – located in the heart of Spitalfields, you’ll find a premier indoor market open seven days a week. Discover pop-up stalls alongside boutique fashion, design and lifestyle stores, plus independent bars, coffee shops and restaurants.
🍣 – located on the 38th and 39th floors at 110 Bishopsgate, this fusion restaurant features the highest outdoor dining terrace in Europe, offering 360 degree views of London. Find a unique blend of Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian culture and cuisine at this world-famous restaurant.
🛍️ – venture down the cobbled back streets and find London’s hub of eye-popping street art, pop-up markets, vintage boutiques, quirky designers and the largest Indian food district in the capital. The perfect excuse for a vintage shopping spree or a late-night curry.
⛳ – the home of crazy (literally) golf, weird cocktails and all things junk. This underground junkyard features four 9-hole crazy golf courses created from scrapyard items with pop-up beverage stands around each course.
💃 – a bar, a club and an art gallery all mixed into one and open every night of the year. As well as the quirky interiors, you’ll also find a stunning rooftop garden complete with a BBQ kitchen, bars, garden shed bathrooms and panoramic views over the City of London.
