Food Scene

Jim’s, the oldest café on the street, had been an Italian café and ice cream factory in the 1960s, and latterly was a much-loved local caff until it closed six years ago. It has recently been renovated and has an old school diner feel but with a pretty decent brunch menu. good vibes, especially after a night out or if your starting off a day where you are going to have some fun!

one of me and Joanna's favourites. you can eat in but very small. it's a great one for a naughty takeaway too. best Street food vibes around and very authentic.

Excellent little late night bar always with a good crowd of characters from all different walks of life. Definitely worth going there after a good few pints!! got a bit of a dive bar feel but if you go there with a late night in mind you probably won't leave!

not in Clapton but not far. one of my favourite pubs in London. the garden is really special and makes incredible use of the small footprint of their outdoor space.

this place is incredible. take a walk down the south bank, go visit, Tate modern etc and end up here. you won't regret it. make sure you get somewhere inside. even if it's busy you normally find somewhere. it's a very old cavernous cellar under the city. very cool

this place is near where I work. really interesting industrial area which is transforming quickly into a new hangout for interesting businesses particularly breweries. if you search for Blackhorse Beer mile you will see there is now 5 breweries within close proximity. this is my fave
