- Everybody knows London Bridge, Oxford Circus,

Borough Market, but I'm going to show you

some of the coolest areas around London to check out,

that you've probably never heard of.

By the way, if you're new here, I'm Jess

and I make lots of videos for people who are coming

to visit London and want to see the cooler side

of the city.

We're in the area of Clerkenwell, which has lots

of really good pubs and restaurants, but the standout

spot is Exmouth Market.

During the week at lunchtime, there is a pop-up

food market where you can get a really good affordable

lunch, by the way, make your way down Spa Fields Lane

if you want a cool little park to have your lunch in.

(upbeat music)

Even if you visit Exmouth Market when it's not lunchtime,

on a weekday, there are tons of really great food

and drink spots as well as shops to check out

while you're here.

London Fields is in East London, and it's a favorite area

amongst Londoners.

Besides all of the great pubs, bars and restaurants

that you can check out around here, you can head down

to Regent's Canal and go for a cycle or a walk

along the river.

This is also where the world famous Columbia Road

flower market is.

It happens on Sundays.

It does get really busy so once you've checked it out,

and you've had enough, make sure you head over

to Ezra Street and get yourself some oysters

or a pint while you sit on the sidewalk and enjoy

with the rest of the Londoners.

During the Windrush hour in the 50s, much of what became

the British Afro-Caribbean population settled here

in Brixton, so this is the best place to come

if you want African or Caribbean cuisine.

I'd recommend heading to Brixton Village or Market Row.

That's where you'll find those places.

You'll also see a bunch of boutique shops

and other types of restaurants too.

Do me a favor, write down in the comments

if you're now going to visit any of these areas

that I just talked about and don't forget,

before you come to visit London, watch one of my other many

London tip videos.

They'll help you to get the most out of your visit.

By the way, make your way down Spa Fields Lane,

a bug just flew in my eye.
