Drinks & Nightlife
24hourlondon. This is an app. It's for when you're out, it's late and you don't want to go home. It locates you and tells you what's open late nearby: bars, restaurants, pubs and clubs. Free to download from iTunes and Google Play and there are also free drinks to be had: check the geolocator for Horatio's head. Visitors to London are often shocked that so many places close at 11pm: this helps you navigate the night-time economy.
The food here is so good that it's in a couple of restaurant guides. Nice beer and atmosphere. Closes at 11pm most nights and 10.30pm on Sunday. (See the Coborn Arms.) Food served until 9pm.

The giant police horses live here and if you would like to visit I know someone who might show you around. The horses stroll through the area making an old-fashioned noise with their hooves.

Living near this is one of End End life's great pleasures. There's a new Chinese pagoda set next to the lake and a great coffee shop and restaurant on a jetty.

Food Scene
Interesting food and drink selection. And once, on a hot summer's day, I saw a bunch of people spontaneously go swimming in the (ornamental) lake from here.

They do amazing croquettes, as well as lots of other lovely things. Apparently the secret with the croquettes is that they put béchamel sauce in them. Nom.
