Clarendon’s top tips for living in Shoreditch
One of the greatest assets of staying in corporate serviced apartments in Shoreditch is how easy it is to access the rest of town. Shoreditch High Street Station runs an over ground service to the likes of Highbury and Islington whilst the Northern Line, which takes commuters directly into the city, is available at Old Street just a short walk away. Avid Banksy fans should look out for some of the mysterious street artist’s work, much of which can still be found donning the walls of the area’s back streets.

London is famous for its thriving theatre scene, which saw its origins begin in Shoreditch.

Overlooked by pastel-painted terraces and surrounded by cafes spilling out onto the cobbled street, nearby Broadway Market has been around since Victorian times and still offers up street feasts and sweet treats today.

Built in 1901 as a music hall, it’s a London institution that’s welcomed everyone from Charlie Chaplin to Laurel and Hardy and these days’ hosts a rolling program of live music, comedy and theatre.
