One of our favourite pubs. Good range of beers here. As its a basement bar, we would probably prefer the Stockbridge Tap during the summer.

Essentials

We are lucky to have a Waitrose as the closet supermarket to our flat. Like Whole Foods in the USA, but more affordable.

Shopping

The charity Shelter has a second hand bookshop next to one of its traditional charity stores (which also has a good CD section).

Instead of buying from iTunes, buy your CDs here and the money goes to charity (instead of Steve Jobs). I have picked up some great CDs here.

Branch of the Napiers Pharmacy. Good for nice smelling gifts and natural remedies. (The icon on the map is a bit wrong. It is a bit further up the street from the Library, at the next intersection)

Arts & Culture

The Modern Art and Dean Galleries are a short walk from the flat. A nice shortcut is through the Dean Cemetery. Good cafes at both galleries.
