Food Scene

Hipster hang-out popular with art students at the nearby Art School - great for working (free wifi) and curling up with a book during the day time. You can stay for hours and they won't bother you. In the evenings, they often have live music, poetry readings, film screenings etc.

Borough Market is the place to go for amazing street food and really high quality produce! You can take the 343 from the bus stop on Southampton Way, opposite the Tesco, and the journey should take 20 minutes. Really worth it for delicious, fresh fruit & veg, awesome curries and burgers, delicious smoothies, and a unique atmosphere.

This place doesn't look like much but it has some of the best Chinese food in London (there are lots of glowing reviews online - worth looking up). It can get very busy but it's worth a visit

Parks & Nature

Great spot for running/jogging, sunbathing, picnicking, etc. There are open-air workout machines you can use; there's a playground for kids, a couple of cafes, tennis courts, a BMX track, a lake... It's a really nice spot to take a bottle of wine to with friends in the summer - it's very peaceful in the daytimes, but on weekend evenings it gets lively, and there are quite often parties and barbecues by the lake.

Frank's offers the best view of London you'll find (apart from maybe in the Shard...). It is only open in the summer, and is really popular so you might have to queue, but it's so worth it!

Getting Around

Buses 136 and 343 go between the stops on Southampton Way and Elephant & Castle, which is the nearest tube station. The journey takes between 10 & 30 minutes depending on the time of day (rush hour traffic can be quite bad). They come every few minutes throughout the day. The 343 will take you all the way to London Bridge (via Borough). An uber to the river normally costs under £10, and to North London (Hackney, Shoreditch, etc.) about £15-20.
