On the way you will pass Spitafields market which is a great way to spend a few hours. It offers clothes, jewellery, vintage stalls, pop-up food vans and cafes.

We are situated in ZONE 1 which is central London but we are in the east side near Tower of London, St Pauls etc. We are not located near the West End (Covent Garden, Soho, Oxford st) but you will just have to catch a short train or bus ride there. London is very accessible and easy to get around. Always allow a little extra time getting anywhere in case of tube delays, traffic, events or peak times.

The closest train stations are:
OVERGROUND Train - Shoreditch High Street Station (3 minute walk)

Which takes you into Central London via circle and central lines.
OR
Bethnal Green Road BUS #8 is at the top of Brick Lane, it takes you into Oxford Circus, (stops passed Liverpool St, Bank, St Pauls, Tottenham Crt Road.)
We do not have any parking spaces available. There are paid parking lots 1 near Brick Lane for weekdays, but these are not usable on weekends due to the market. You can find free street parking on Saturdays and Sundays but you will need to be patient and spend time searching.
