You should also definitely vist the Aubin & Wills concept store. The store will function as a social hot spot where you can meet and interact with like-minded indiviudals, but also a place to be entertained. For example, watch a movie in the Aubin Cinema, a intimate 47-seat theatre wih velvet chairs and sofas. The theatre also is availabe for private hires. You can also take a look at The Galery on the first floor.
Shoreditch is the place to go if you like vintage shops, small boutiques, the latest trends, art, and everyhtinh what's new and exciting.
But if you don't like shopping you can walk around Shoreditch too, because I am sure you will love the art work on the streets.
