Things To Do In Shoreditch For Under £5!

Good morning folks and happy Sunday!

This week we decided to show you something you can do near our store for less than a fiver, for £3.95 to be exact, that’s right! For only £3.95 you can do this too, firstly we booked a free graffiti tour, there’s so many around london, we used London With a Local, but there’s a lot of places offering these tours, then we grabbed ourselves a cookie and a coffee (for £3.95) and off we went!

A shot of our coffee and cookie before we took off

Firstly we went to the meeting point which was at Shoreditch High Street Station, we got to admire some of the street art around there before we set off

We got to view some amazing artworks, including this one called ‘connectivity’

Our tour guide Rob was really lovely and knew so much about everything

This was one of our favourite pieces

This piece was by an artist called David Steele, you can actually spot one of his pieces opposite our store!

We loved this Stik leaning on the side of the building

We also had a moment of appreciation for Stik's little frog friend

One of the 3 different Banksy's we saw on the tour

There was also this entire wall of stickers and posters

Another Banksy

This piece is also opposite our store, and is now finished so go check it out!

We think this is where our cookies are from

Watching an artist touch up an existing piece

This piece was another really beautiful one that we loved

Another wonderful piece

P.S See it come to life here!

We loved this dinosaur, nicknamed Crunchy, by artist Ronzo

Our third and final Banksy right at the end

So there you have it folks! This week why not do this yourself? Book a slot, put on some comfortable trainers (as the tour is generally about 2 hours), then get your cookie and coffee and go! There were so many other wonderful pieces we didn’t feature, and this is such a small snippet of the many pieces we saw that you really have to see it all. If street art isn’t your thing either there’s so many other free street tours that these companies do just waiting for you to book them

Have a great week folks, and Happy Pride Month to all our LGBTQ+ followers!
