Although we’re partial to a 99 from an ice cream van, Happy Endings’ pop-up at Pavilion Cafe in Victoria Park sways our soft serve loyalty.

Mae + Harvey is a cafe serving the best coffee and brunch in Bow and Mile End.

Predictably, the East London Liquor Co. serve great cocktails. But, plot twist, they also do top chicken from Royale.

Easily one of the nicest pubs in the Bow and Mile End area with plenty of cask ales and bottled beer from across the UK, and the roasts are great.

If you live anywhere near Victoria Park, Pavilion Cafe should be a weekend staple for coffee and pancakes. It’s fantastic during the summer.
