This bowling chain has an outpost on Bricklane – just grab something to eat pre or post bowling as the food here isn’t brilliant.

THE BOOK CLUB

GO HERE FOR…PING PONG X BOOZE

Casual Bar + Event Space

The Book Club is an all day dining spot – they host live music and art events in their basement and on the same floor as the dining room / bar, they have a space that houses a ping pong table. The food is meh, so just grab a drink and get to battle with some little balls.

BLITZ

GO HERE FOR…QUALITY VINTAGE GARMS

Vintage Shop

Brick Lane is probably best know for the plethora of Indian restaurants situated here and the high concentration of vintage shops. One of my favourite vintage shops is probably the biggest of them all – Blitz on Hanbury Street – vast but well ordered and well priced.

COLOMBIA ROAD FLOWER MARKET

GO HERE FOR…FLOWERS INNIT

Flower Market

Not technically Shoreditch, more Hoxton way, this popular flower market is open every Sunday. Come early to avoid the MASSIVE stream of people. There’s a bunch of cute shops dotted around Columbia Road, so if the market gets too overwhelming, dip into one of these for a breather. Also, a shortwalk from good spots like The Marksman and Morito on Hackney Road.

Chocolate Shop

Make a pit stop by this awesome chocolate shop on Brick Lane. Try the white chocolate and passion fruit, it’s real yum. They also have a sit down cafe a few doors down on Brick Lane – I haven’t tried the hot chocolate but I’ve seen pics of it and it looks insanely good.

Shop With Fun Bits & Bobs

Maiden’s a fun den of eclectic products – if you’re after a random 2ft plastic flamingo for a tropical party or a Frida Khalo bamboo curtain to jazz up an entrance or a unicorn sprinkles shaker, just for lols, you’ll most probably find it here. Sure, you can buy all this stuff on Amazon but it’s just a little more fun here.
