Da Polpo is bringing that New York City cool back into London. Think hip Italian joint with fabulous food, but with a cheaper price tag than you’d expect.
This place is always busy. A fantastic mix of English greasy spoon caf and cheap Thai. Both in the best possible way.
One of the cheapest cinemas in London, with amazing rates if you're a member and cult film-a-thons. Love the kitsch red leather seats.

Walking up all the stairs might get you crazy but do it for the view which is incredible!

This landmark of the Shoreditch bar scene is characterised by its funky, cosmopolitan feel and touch of class. Mehr erfahren.
Truly one of my favourite pubs in London. Great beers on offer, lovely setting, and regular events.
Located next to the Boundary in Shoreditch, this pastry palace must not be missed. Their breakfast sandwiches are collosal, and homemade scones outrageously scrumptous. Takeaway never tasted better.
Fish and chips the way it should be. Not at the right price though, could be a little cheaper Mehr erfahren.
Fancy a guided walk? This takes you through London's vibrant east end, taking in some excellent street art whilst you're at it.

Be sure to swing by the latest addition to Shoreditch's family. Almost every night run there is guaranteed to be fun.
Missed breakfast? Never fear, the Breakfast Club - as it's name suggests - won't let you down, because "it's always breakfast-time somewhere in the world" Mehr erfahren.
