Where do Stepney locals go?

Efes

Efes

The best Turkish food for an excellent price.

The Narrow

The Narrow

A great gastropub on Narrow Street in Limehouse with fabulous food and a lovely atmosphere. The terrace has superb views of the Thames and you can go for a stroll around picturesque Limehouse Basin afterwards to walk off all the calories consumed!

Goldstar Dry Cleaners

Goldstar Dry Cleaners

The masters of getting any stain out and they have always got a trick or two up their sleeve to get them out. 5 shirts for £7.50 is a bargain - and they will even do same day cleaning for the same price!

Tredegar Square

Tredegar Square

Beautiful green space in zone 2.

Docklands Nails

Docklands Nails

Friendly, efficient and great value!

The Palm Tree

The Palm Tree

A local drinking institution that retains its traditional decor - a proper East End boozer with plenty of character in Millennium Park.

Il Bordello

Il Bordello

A family-run Italian with turbot bigger than my face! Their service is outstanding and one that we can all learn from and appreciate the lack of nowadays.

Noodle Street

Noodle Street

A cracking little Chinese restaurant on a random street, tucked away amongst a number of residential blocks. Great food and it's always full. Good prices too and if you can't be bothered to leave the house, they deliver!

York Hall Leisure Centre

York Hall Leisure Centre

Famous gym, spa and boxing venue!

Skylight

Skylight

A rooftop bar next to Tobacco Dock open Thursday to Sunday. Brilliant views, a good selection of drinks, croquet in the summer and an ice rink in the winter.

Pollyanna Training Theatre

Pollyanna Training Theatre

Wonderful performance and arts activities for children.

One Canada Square

One Canada Square

A lovely place for elegant drinks and dinner or after-work drinks. Food served throughout the day and with a range of deals too.

Pavilion Café

Pavilion Café

A great place to grab a coffee, freshly prepared snacks or cake, while overlooking one of Victoria Park's lakes.

Gaucho

Gaucho

The best steak house and part of an upmarket chain. Sumptuous décor, delicious cocktails and perfectly cooked steak that you can choose from a board carried by the waiter.

Cineworld

Cineworld

The Cineworld at West India Quay is moments from bars and restaurants, so grab a drink and food before and after the showings.

Why not explore the nearby areas of Limehouse, Whitechapel, Bethnal Green, Bow, Wapping, Rotherhithe, Aldgate, Spitalfields, Canary Wharf and Victoria Park

"In 1968, the National Federation of Fish Friers finally came to the conclusion that fish and chips was invented in London! Credit went to Joseph Malin of Whitechapel, who in 1860 was the first person to combine the two."

Whitechapel's residential buildings and mixed architecture are on the doorstep of vibrant Shoreditch and the bustling City.

Andrew Phillips

A rich history, mix of cultures, vibrant arts scene and massive transport investment...Whitechapel's future is looking bright!

Stepney quote

Bradley Golshahi

There's no better place in London than Wapping! I love the impressive mix of modern developments and historic buildings.
