The brand spanking new print edition of Gasholder hits the streets today, celebrating the latest food, culture and people from King’s Cross right up the Regent’s Canal to Hackney Wick.
Super-producer Mark Ronson graces our front cover, as we reveal the story behind the phenomenal rise of Tileyard Studios, now home for many of London’s most world-reknowned music artists, plus a bubbling community of young stars-in-the-making, too.
We review new neighbourhood Italian Dolce Vita, streetfood wrap champs Rotli Crew and the huge new all-day dining arrival on Pancras Square, Drake & Morgan.
This issue you’ll also meet Hackney Wick-based musician David Gledhill, and there’s a 2-page guide to the best places to eat, drink and hangout in his thriving artistic corner of east London. Plus we take a look slightly further east still, with recommendations from our sister title Leytonstoner.
LOCAL ADVERTISING
There’s even some of Stewart Lee’s acerbic wit too. Go grab your free copy from all these lovely local hangouts.
