Columbia Road Flower Market

If you find yourself up early on a Sunday morning it’s well worth a visit – even if you’re not buying plants and flowers. Lots of cute little shops selling all kinds of stuff. There’s a nice pub – The Royal Oak, and a great little Italian cafe – The Globe.

Also it’s within walking distance of Spitalfields Market (http://www.43places.com/places/view/198428) which is cool too.

Nearest tubes: Old Street, Liverpool Street (or even Bethnal Green at a push).

A little oasis of flowers, plants, herbs of all sorts. Even if you are not stocking up, it makes for a great wander on a Sunday morning.
