Food scene
This is a great place for brunch and lunch. The sushi counter is very high quality and the bagels are to die for.
Fun fact: I used to run into Paul McCartney shopping for bagels here on a Sunday back when he lived in the neighbourhood.

Famous for recording The Beatles, and the zebra crossing in their album cover is just outside. This is only a 15 minute walking distance from the flat.

A very special place. Walk up to the top of the hill to see the perfect view of the London Skyline. Firework shows and jazz gigs often happen if you go at the right times.
