Fancy staying football-free these next six weeks? Avoid the noise and hide away with a drink in your hands:
🍷 Renegade Urban Winery for al fresco wine at the front and the back of the venue, and fancy dining with kitchen resident LEO up on the mezzanine. Also happening tonight (and definitely NOT football): Walthamstow Women's Book Club.
🥃 It's Thirsty Thursday over at Burnt Faith, so pop by for £7 house cocktails and stick around for their quiz. Plus, Black Cactus is back in the kitchen from Friday if you want to treat yourself to some delicious barbecue.
🍷 Open Friday to Sunday, Borough Wines' E17 taproom is keeping things chilled with a wide range of wines on tap, refills, board games, vinyl and - if it's not too hot - delicious raclette plates.
