5 Meals For A Fiver: Bethnal Green
There’s imported formaggio, fella-filled cafs, and fantastic Bangladeshi food in Bethnal Green. Here’s how to spend £5 in E2.
A proper workers’ favourite, the Arches is a friendly caf tucked under Bethnal Green Overground that is seemingly required, by some unwritten social law, to always have at least two people eating a combination of pig and yellow runny eggs. And you should be one of them.
