Mile End & Bow

At the crossroads of the City, Canary Wharf and the Olympic Park you'll find Mile End and Bow — the bustling residential heartland of the East End. Once gritty and rough around the edges — OK, still gritty and rough around the edges — the area has picked up in recent years with new places to eat, drink and shop joining the existing arts venues, charming parks and squares. While the likes of Nandos, Tesco and Starbucks have all started to muscle-in on the area, there's plenty of other places to head to if you're after genuine local experiences.

Deceptively large, this friendly local gardening shop is nestled next to the Hertford Union Canal on the south east corner of Victoria Park. Selling everything a budding gardener could need in the city, the centre is also the perfect place to pick up a Christmas tree in December.
