When you arrive at your apartment your welcome pack will include a few biscuits and some tea and coffee. We know it won’t sustain you for long though and so we have put together a few suggestions in case you want to try out some of the restaurants and coffee shops in the area.
For an interesting coffee shop, try The Observatory on Marchmont Street (turn right when you leave the building and it is the second street on the right).The food is good and it even has its own art gallery!
Another coffee shop on Marchmont Street is 49 Cafe. It can be a bit of a squeeze at bust times but again the food is tasty.

If you want more than just a coffee and a light snack, head to the Brunswick Centre. This shopping centre offers a mix of high street and independent stores, including a huge supermarket, as well as several cafes, restaurants, and a cinema.
The restaurants you will find there include:
Riding House Bloomsbury – this is one of our favourites. High quality modern British food in a stylish setting.
Itsu – sushi and other Asian-inspired cuisine
Gourmet Burger – burgers and other fast food
Nando’s – peri peri chicken and similar offerings
We’ll be adding to this as we try out other restaurants in the area. Keep an eye on our posts, enjoy and see you at Tavistock Apartments!
