Shoreditch & Southwark
Flour & Grape
This bustling spot delivers precisely what its name promises: flour in the form of delectable fresh bread and handmade pasta, and grapes in the form of stellar Italian wines. flourandgrape.com
Boxpark Shoreditch
Eat, drink and shop at this fun modern pop-up mall that’s constructed from retrofitted shipping containers and features independent local brands. boxpark.co.uk
The Hoxton Shoreditch
Even if you don’t stay here, come to work or just chill. I loved The Hoxton’s stylish spaces, plush seating and all-around cool vibes. thehoxton.com
Labour and Wait
Even the cleaning supplies – workaday pails, hand-forged gardening tools and Downton
Abbey- esque feather dusters – are beautiful at this quaint shop, which sells functional household essentials, books, stationery and sartorial items. labourandwait.co.uk
