If you want a night out where you can stroll the streets and find filled bars, restaurants and music venues, this is the place to go. Although you will find places just by walking, I would advise to pre-book if there is somewhere specific you would like to go. Most buses outside Fleetwood Apartment go to Shoreditch.

Just a short walk down the road. Please note that this is maybe not your 'usual' food market, and if you are a vegetarian and/or prefer not to see hanging animals I would suggest not to go. You can find things you don't usually find in your supermarket such as large snails, spices, sheep feet etc. See their website for opening times.

Known for MTV studios and the Punk scene Camden Market still has lots to offer from clothes stalls to food stalls. If you can avoid the weekends I would do so, it gets quite busy :)

Absolutely love this near by Sunday flower market. Check their website as sometimes the opening times change, but a good time to go is between 1-3pm. If you wish to have lunch in the area booking is recommended. They have some lovely pubs for Sunday Roast!
