Sightseeing
Beautiful park at walking distance to the flat, gets lively at the weekends with people strolling, having picnics and spending time people and deer watching (yes). Has a cafe but I recommend bringing your drinks and a blanket and do it like a local.

Great for Turkish food (try Mangal, the classic), music venues like Earth and Cafe Oto, the Rio cinema for indie films, The Dalston Superstore- a queer venue with DJ and cabaret nights. Interesting eateries, hidden cocktail bars (Ruby's) and a young, feisty vibe.
