Hackney is where flavoursome foods and homemade brews live, where eco-conscious millennials brunch, drink, shop and get inspiration. Hackney’s shops and markets sell temptation by the truckload, from vintage fabrics and designer must-haves to rare meats and artisan bread.
There are flavours to savour from its lip-smacking restaurants, vibes to take in from an abundance of drinking holes and world-class coffee to enjoy from the many eclectic and charming coffee shops in Hackney. Quirky, scruffy, sleek or hip, you are seriously spoilt for things to do in Hackney.
The Victoria Fountain, also known as the Baroness Burdett Coutts Drinking Fountain, is one of Victoria Park’s most iconic landmarks. Thousands of people flocked to Syliva Pankhurst’s Suffragette demonstrations. Historic England designated the fountain as a Grade II listed building in 1975. The fountain was renovated in 2011 and restored to its former grandeur, however, it is no longer operational.
Another of the most impressive sights was a Chinese pagoda, built in 1847. Chinoiserie was all the rage in Queen Victoria’s reign as China was opening to the West. The Pagoda was purchased for display in Victoria Park and originally stood on an island in the centre of one of the park lakes.
Between Victoria Park, Hackney Marsh, and the Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park is Hackney Wick. The area has been transformed into a hotspot for young creatives who enjoy the variety of bars and eateries as well as the village atmosphere.
