Lovely, contemporary pizzeria which has awesome stone-baked pizzas (including Gluten Free). Outdoors seating in the summer months so you can watch the world go by. Good for brunch/lunch/dinner or treat yourself to a takeaway to eat back at home.

This intimate coffee shop is just a few minutes walk away. It is by far the best brew in the area and its tiny proportions means you often end up falling into conversation with others in the cafe sitting nearby. In fact, I've spent so many hours here that the owner Peter is now a friend..

The footpath by the side of the canal makes for a lovely walk - or running route. Turn left and left onto Southgate Road, then walk straight and you’ll hit the canal in ten minutes. On a sunny day you can sit out by the water at one of the many waterfront cafes/bars.

Take a walk up Regents Canal and you’ll soon find Broadway Market: a quirky street full of small independent shops, galleries, cafes, pubs and restaurants. On a Saturday you’ll discover the market that gives the street its name. Great for vintage clothing, food delicacies, and good coffee. Take a moment to pause where the street meets the canal and you’ll see the majestic outline of the two old gas tower structures - an iconic East London view.
