Grab a Coffee from Farm Girl Café
Shiny blue tiles and a sunny courtyard, this is definitely a feel good café. Delicious, nutritious superfoods are on the menu but don’t let the healthiness put you off.
Dine at the Electric Diner

Try Top nosh at Granger & Co.
Aussie chef Bill Granger’s troops serve up superb food, wine, and coffees in this bustling corner location. Get there early to beat the morning queues and relish an epic brunch.
Catch a film at Electric Cinema
Not your average cinema: think large, comfy red velvet armchairs, front row beds for cosy couples, an Edwardian Baroque-style interior & cocktails delivered to your chair. Sound like a plan?
Visit the Museum of Brands
Remember when Mars Bars used to be 10p? It’s all there, the brands and packs, radios and ads, fads, sweets, toys and games. Evocative and inspiring, it’s a kaleidoscope of images and brands.
Have breakfast at Lisboa Patisserie
This spot is so genuinely Portuguese you might think you are in the wrong country for a few seconds. Try the famous Pastel de Nata and drink the Portuguese Latte.
Explore The Tabernacle
A stunning red-brick former church offering a community theatre, exhibition space, dance studio, and all-day dining. Enjoy a delicious vegan roti wrap or relax in the outdoor seating area.
Bookshop of the movie
Famous as the inspiration for Hugh Grant’s bookshop in the film Notting Hill, it sells (wait for it) travel books, and also hosts several author events every month.
Learn to Graffiti at Graffik Gallery
Remember when your mother told you not to write on walls? At Graffik Gallery they've taken the opposite approach. Their graffiti stencil workshops give you the chance to create your own works of art.
