The Towpath along Regent's Canal is great for an afternoon stroll. There are lots of cute house boats on either side of the canal. On Sunday you usually see them swap places. Also a great way to walk to Broadway market on Saturday...

The top end of brick lane is very well knows for it's vintage clothing shops. The bottom end has a plethora of Indian restaurants. They are quite aggressively advertising their restaurants, so don't go into any one unless they promise you a free starter, a free drink and 20% off... A good backup if it all get's too much is Aladin.

Arts & Culture

There's usually something fun going on at the Truman Brewery. An art fair, a food market, something experiential and quirky... And if not, there are fun places to explore around it as well!
