Cyclist coffee shop. Very cool, great coffee. Quiche+salads is a great deal—it's a huge dish! Free wi-fi.

One always needs a reliable Chinese restaurant for late night takeaways. East House does a pretty good job. Be aware, though: no credit/debit cards accepted!

Goswell Road Coffee is my least favourite coffee shop in the area. It doesn't provide high-quality blends and extractions that other places do, but it is very convivial. Free wi-fi.

Workshop is a bit farther away, but it's ambience and selection of food and coffee is quite worth the 5min walk. But it disappoints in not providing free wi-fi.

Busaba is a trendy Thai restaurant. Old street and Soho stores (on Floral St) have the chain's most disputed seats. It can be a life-saver in other parts of town (Westfield Stratford).

Shopping

One New Change is the most complete shopping centre close to the flat, carrying many high street brands such as H&M, Topshop, Banana Republic—without the fuss of Oxford Street, especially on weekends!

Sightseeing

It is unnecessary to describe a landmark such as St Paul's. The cathedral looming over the City and the river is just a short walk from the flat, as the shopping district around it.
