London: recommended spots

A day out on foot exploring Shoreditch, from someone who has lived in East London for >5 years.

Shoreditch is the new place to be in East London! It’s also known as the “Brooklyn of London”, where you can explore so many different aspects that make London so unique. From wall graffiti and vintage stores to the famous Brick Lane curries and lots of new (and good) restaurants popping up, Shoreditch is definitely the place to explore.

I hope you enjoy this guide.

Any tips would be appreciated 😊

London & Amsterdam

I am SO excited to share with you my favourite things to do in London! I've had the privilege of going to London 3 times and I've curated an itinerary of all my favourite places just for you! 

Of course complete with the classic must-see tourist attractions that London offers, plus some incredibly unique things to do you wont find in any other itinerary, secret speakeasies and movie theatres, and everything Harry Potter. Of course, some great food suggested by locals and a few additional links that helped me have some incredibly unique experiences in London! 

This itinerary can be done in 3 days, however they are quite full days. For a more relaxing experience, take 4 or 5 and explore even more. 

Off the beaten path guide to LONDON! 

Discount Suit Company

From the outside, this place looks exactly like what it says on the tin -- a decrepit tailor -- thanks to a sign that is holding on to the brick work for dear life. But take a chance and head down the dodgy-looking side door into a low-ceilinged, exposed-brickwork, raw-light-bulbed den. You’ll soon find yourself with a delicious adult beverage in your hand. 

Hidden beneath the streets of East London, you'll find Discount Suit Company, a former suit tailor's store room turned cosy cocktail bar.
One of London's quirkiest drinking spots, guests can enjoy bespoke cocktails from a menu that refreshes every 6 months and regular DJ sets.

This is a speakeasy-style bar. It's behind an unmarked black door so it feels a little unintuitive to find but well worth visiting! The cocktails are all traditional themed using primarily old fashioned liquors. 

Hidden bar suggestion from Kayla Ketner. Small food menu, £11.50 cheese board.
