Coffee Cake, N8
Amazing Cakes 
Gareth S. says:
THE best cakes in the area. Without exception.
The only quandary is which one to buy.... Fabuous Meiulle Feuille, Chocolate Cakes, Fruit Tarts & Meringues all boxed for safe transit home.
I've eaten in restaraunts nearby and forsaken a dessert in favour of popping in here on the way home. It's that good! Not your normal high street bakery.
Private Shop, B2
Great for getting your rocks off
Ross B. says:
This is a lovely shop run by a lovely old couple who you wouldn't think would be the type.
While they no longer have that much of an interest in the goods (viagra can only do so much it seems) they have a very good stock and, if required, can get most things you need if you give them notice.
The place doesn't smell like some of the inner city shops which is good and the curtain ensure privacy.
If you're a dirty perv or a curious enthusiast I don't think you can go too far wrong.
The Garrick Arms, WC2H
AVOID! 
Gareth S. says:
Harumph. It's tourist prices, so stupidly overpriced. It's cramped and the staff are far from friendly.
I've never eaten here, but looking at tourists plates it's your standard, poor quality English pub grub - fish and chips fresh from the freezer.
Throw a stone in any direction and you'll probably hit a better pub. (Actually, you'll probably hurt someone - so don't do that. It's just a figure of speech)
Phoenix Cinema, N2
Small, but perfectly formed
Gareth S. says:
This is a refreshing alternative to the mainstream. I prefer to catch two buses to come here rather than walk to my local multiplex.
The cinema itself is small so you're guaranteed a good seat! Picture & sound quality is good. The selection of movies is limited since they only have the single screen - but you can catch the odd gem here that you won't find elsewhere. I managed to catch a rare screening of Stanley Kubricks first two feature films a few years back! Nice :)
