Just off Arnold Circus in Shoreditch, Leila's Shop is a lovely place for coffee or lunch.
Be warned, it can get busy and space is a little scarce.
I had a pram but they kindly said I could leave it next door in their beautiful food store - a great place to pick up a few bits for dinner. I couldn't resist a pack of chestnuts, a jar of pickles, a jar of gooseberry jam, a block of lovely butter and a little bottle of anchovies.
Just next door is a lovely shop selling fashion & comfy cushions with beautiful handmade covers. I bought a "peanut" lumbar/neck support. Perfect for breastfeeding & a thing of beauty.
Owner Samson, a parent to a 5-year old himself - is happy to play with the kids while you browse.
Rochelle School Canteen is another good spot on Arnold Circus. There's a nice stretch of grass (perfect for kids to play in the warmer months) & often exhibitions to check out.
