We’re so proud to be part of a thriving community of independent businesses in Hackney Wick. Here’s some of our favourite places to re-charge after a class at Strong + Bendy.
Got to start with a shout-out to our incredible neighbours Thingy. George makes the best coffee in London.
1 Trowbridge Road, Hackney Wick
Best for tacos and cocktails. The foods awesome, but the people watching is better at Pearl. It’s so cool every time I visit I promise myself I’ll start wearing something that isn’t these leggings all the time! Try the new Vegan Inferno spicy plantain stew. Can’t beat it for warming up and recharging after a tough class in the exercise garden.
1 Prince Edward Rd, Hackney Wick
Best for full English breakfast (veggie + vegan options too of course!) Not just great food, but great people too. Breakfast Club has won awards for it’s contribution to volunteering! How cool is that?
Canaldside, Here East, Hackney Wick
Hearty vegan menu, beautiful canal-side location. Head down to Mother on the canal by Hear East and soak up some holiday vibes all year round 🙂 It’s their smoothies we’re most obsessed with. I was once told our battle ropes class is so tough it stopped a member from being able to use a knife and fork the next day due to arm-burn…..a smoothie is the answer to that problem!
