Rochelle Canteen

The lively hub of a creative collective housed within a former Victorian school, Rochelle Canteen serves up simple yet creative breakfast, lunch and dinner dishes; from avocado on toast, to skate with monk’s beard and capers.

Run by event caterers Melanie Arnold and Margot Henderson (Arnold & Henderson), this Shoreditch eatery is concealed within an old bike shed, but expands into a tranquil garden with tables and benches on sunny days.

Chat to some of the resident workers over lunch, or relax with a coffee and book outdoors – it’s open to all, and you’ll learn more about its creative community in the process.
