“East village has lovely independent cafes and restaurants, run by passionate individuals. From artisan bread to home made gelato and fabulous cocktails. All this on the door step of a huge park, no cars, sports facilities and lots of activities within the community.”

“Stratford has a very good transport (underground, DLR and buses). You have a great selection of shops (Westfield shopping centre). You also benefit from Olympic sports center. Finally, there are recreation grounds nearby â Victoria Park.”
Daniel
“Stratford has seen an abundance of change in a short time. The corner stone of the East end it now truly unites what was once a typical east end town with the rest of the city and even Europe Thanks to it's unrivalled transport connections. However, despite the growth of mega residential towers attracting the city slicker you know you'll have a neighbour who can point you to a market trader selling fresh produce at compassionate prices. Thus, although Stratford has attracted wealth through enormous investment you know the local traders at the Stratford old centre will always look after the old and new residents and that's what makes Stratford truly warm and a place to embrace diversity at its finest.”
