Hackney Downs / Lower Clapton
Map 87
A few years ago you couldn’t move for house gigs and secret raves around the Downs, but these days the area is devolving into the moody gangland it used to be whilst breeding the rioters of tomorrow. Lower Clapton, on the other hand, is ever on the up. Shop at Umit’s for rare films and sweets. Food and coffee can be found at vegan punk paradise Pacific Social Club.
