LOCAL AREA INFORMATION

Full Property Address 85 Farleigh Road N167TD

Nearest Transport Links & junction Directions to the Property Hackney Downs

Nearest grocery shops & Supermarkets pharmacy Whole Foods 32-40 Church St, London N16 0LU Harvest Organic groceries, epicerie, cafe. There are two of these pretty much equidistant North and South on the high street. Harvest N16 172-, 174 Stoke Newington High St, London N16 7JL Harvest E8 130-132 Kingsland High St, London E8 2NS Sainsbury Located INSIDE the shopping centre just next to Ridley Road Market. Kingsland Shopping Centre, Dalston Cross Shopping Centre, London E8 2LX

Recommended local Pubs and Bars restaurants, cafes or places Rose and Crown to go out A Stoke Newington favourite. Serves classic Sunday Roast. 199 Stoke Newington Church St, London N16 9ES

The Shakespeare Charming old school pub that avoids the contemporary gastropub proliferation. Order pizza next door and eat it in the back garden. 57 Allen Rd, London N16 8RY

Ridley Market Bar After the market has ended, the Ridley Market Bar starts up around 6pm. Red Stripe beer, cocktails, good beats. This bar heats up after around 9pm and by 10 you won’t get in. Go early to catch a booth. Usually has very good DJ’s and the dance floor starts to bump. Bar is in the middle of Ridley Road Market. Walking from the high street entrance, find the bar around half way down on the left. Cafe Oto This is a true gem. During the day Oto is a rather dark laptop cafe serving the more arty oriented local community. In the evening’s Oto is a cutting edge live music venue specialising in Jazz and the experimental side of things. Go there and check it out. 18-22 Ashwin St, London E8 3DL

Cafes and Brunch Lazy Social Hipster laptop cafe. The lazy social seems to operate as the local office for a lot of people. Good coffee. Good brunch. The place to laptop. 101 Stoke Newington High St, London N16 0PH

Mouse & de Lotz low key laptop cafe. Very good cakes. 103 Shacklewell Lane London E8 2EB

Fingers Crossed

Makes good coffee, has the internet, very good food. Proper Italian restaurant in the costume of a laptop cafe. 247 Amhurst Rd, London N16 7UN

The Russet (or cafe cart replacement) The Russet is the hallmark restaurant cafe of this little hipster pocket near Hackney Downs Park. However it’s closed for renovation. But just in front they’ve stuck a really good coffee truck from Floyd’s, so you can get coffee and some cakes there while they renovate. 17 Amhurst Terrace, London E8 2BT

Clissold House Cafe Very nice place to drink coffee. Large old manor house with a view over the park. In Clissold Park

Newington Table Great food and coffee, amazing baked stuff with French master baker obsessing over his sourdough. Operates as a serious laptop cafe with real dinner in the evening. Incredible brunch. 20 , London N16 9PU Lunch and Dinner

Lardo bebé Pizza. Heard it’s really good, haven’t tried it. Sandringham Rd, London E8 2AF

Floyds Good restaurant. Been there once. Apparently it’s great as a cocktail lounge at night. 89 Shacklewell Ln, London E8 2EB

Sutton and Sons Best fish and chips in London. Hands down. Also serves grilled fish with salad if you don’t like fried fish with fried potatoes. Check out lunch specials. 90 Stoke Newington High St, London N16 7NY

Blue Legume Despite the name this is NOT a vegan cafe, although they do have vegan options. Very wide range of salads, smoothies, burgers, sandwiches, specials. This is your go to location if you need to please everyone. 101 Stoke Newington Church St, London N16 0UD

The Garden Cafe Cafe / Restaurant in the back of a flower shop. Nice place to sit, decent food. 113 Stoke Newington Church St, London N16 0UD

Franco Manca Latest iteration of popular hipster pizza chain. It’s good, it’s ok, the crust is a bit doughy, but it’s still good. If you like a less hipster pizza, go have a beer at the Shakespeare and order pizza next door. 176 Stoke Newington High St, London N16 7JL

Mangal 1 There are a million Turkish bbq joints around here. There are 25 Mangals, This is #1, This is the best. On a Friday night you’ll find the world down here. Bring your own alcohol. 10 Arcola St, London E8 2DJ

Ridley Road Market In the market there are always great places to eat. Jerk Chicken at the end, Pakistani food at the beginning (near the high street). Ask them if they’ve got the Haleem… it’s a kind of lentil stew with lamb. Really good. You’ll find it if you want it.

Ban Mi Etc. I recently went on a Ban Mi craze. I ate every Ban Mi in London and this is the best one, I’m not joking. Three diligent women produce the freshest Vietnamese sandwiches and Summer rolls. Highlights also include their noodle salad and the bubble tea.. Get it to go and eat it in Clissold park. 37 Stoke Newington Church St, London N16 0NX

Trangallan Incredible Spanish restaurant. Lunch specials on Fridays. Otherwise it’s a dinner scene. Booking is usually a good idea, particularly on the weekends. 61 Newington Green, London N16 9PX http://www.trangallan.com/ 020 7359 4988

Parks and Walking Clissold Park Stately park in the originally gentrified part of Hackney. It’s beautiful. Tennis courts (book online) and the cafe is great too.

Hackney Downs Our local. Perfectly usable as a park. It’s not Clissold though.

Lea Valley Go a little further out and you can spend an entire day in the Lea Valley area. Very cool mix of urban and rural views. Also has an ice skating centre, tennis, and horse riding. Google it.

Regent’s Canal A bit to the south of us, the Regent’s Canal snakes across the whole of London. Walk it East to the Victoria park, or West over to Angel. Nice surprises along the way.

Victoria park Incredible park. Recently redone. Large, classic, East London paradise. Take a walk there via Regent’s canal, or just get lost on the way. Lot’s of things to run into between here and there.

Markets Organic Farmer’s Market (Saturdays) in Stoke Newington Amazing local and organic market every saturday morning. http://www.growingcommunities.org/market/ St Pauls Church, Stoke Newington High St, London N16 7UY

Ridley Road Market (Every day except Sunday) NOT organic. Extremely colourful market at the heart of Dalston. Hundreds of stalls of fruits and vegetables, meat, and fish, Fresh Nan and Dahls. This is a busy daily market that is an entire ecosystem of its own. Fix your watch, buy Jamaican salt fish, and then go into the Kingsland shopping centre for out of control kitsch and baubles, or just the Sainsbury’s supermarket for no-nonsense shopping.

Broadway Market (Saturdays) in London Fields is the height of hipster foodie-ism. This is a wild scene. Get there before noon if you don’t like crowds, otherwise just surf it both ways.

Bakeries Gozde Bakery Our closest bakery does really good bread, and excellent Turkish specialties. 110 Stoke Newington High St, London N16 7NY Newington Table If you’re a total sourdough snob you’ll go here. Amazing pain au chocolate and pain au raisin as well. You might just get sucked into staying for a while and chatting with the Australians. 20 Newington Green, London N16 9PU Cinema The Rio Cinema Hackney’s independent Cinema. Go there. Support it. Usually a good selection. Not the most comfortable seats in the world so don’t say i didn’t tell you. 107 Kingsland High St, London E8 2PB Hackney Picture House Gentrified cinema chain shows a selection of good films and the usual. 270 Mare St, London E8 1HE
