Leyton in East London has been voted as one of Time Out’s Coolest Neighbourhoods in the World.
Ranking at number 24 out of 38, Leyton joins the likes of Notre-Dame-du-Mont in France, Kerns in the USA’s Portland and Bristol’s Stokes Croft and St Paul’s thanks to the Leyton Orient Football club, food options and nightlife.
Matt Blake, contributor at Time Out London said of the East London area, “What it lacks in £30-a-plate pub roasts, baby-chariot buggy-jams and towering townhouses, it makes up in friendly faces, cheap eats and authentic local businesses. There’s a historic football club that loves newcomers and plays in the borough, a growing food scene, lively nightlife and a wealth of proper boozers that still feel like living rooms, not just boutique hotel lobbies.”
