Food Scene
My personal absolute favourite spot for top quality coffee, great music and vibes, with super friendly owners/baristas. Delicious homemade treats, healthy porridge and best ever cheese toasties. Enjoy, and tell Federico and Valentine I say hello! :)

Absolute favourite if the weather's good, you can walk along the canal from the flat. The restaurant uses reclaimed storage units along the canal with some sheltered seating, but mostly uncovered. Inventive seasonal menu using local ingredients.

Entertainment & Activities
Great local cutting edge comedy in an intimate venue with a bar. More than one show nearly every night, with newcomers and seasoned pros, even occasional big names! 'Free shows' every night, donations encouraged, go early for a drink to get seats.

Shopping
The Antiques market is off Camden Passage, a cobbled alley way, lined with more antiques, vintage clothing, Scandi interiors, a Japanese print dealer, cafés (including the popular 'Breakfast Club', but I prefer Elk in the Woods next door.)

Arts & Culture

Award winning venue with incredibly reverberating acoustics and beautiful architecture and stained glass windows. Still a working church, but gigs nearly every night. Most Saturdays, 12-2pm, is Daylight Music, a pay-what-you-can gig (£5 suggested), showcasing an incredibly diverse programme of artists and music from every imaginable genre, with tea/coffee and homemade cakes/quiches/pastries from the Margins Café.

The Margins Café serves dinner before evening gigs, all profits going to The Margins Project for homeless and people in crisis.
