The Vintage Emporium

I was wandering down Brick Lane on Sunday afternoon when I stumbled across possibly the best vintage shop in London!

The Vintage Emporium is any vintage lovers paradise. The shop is jam-packed full of the most beautiful pre-50's clothing and collectables with not a single 80's monstrosity in sight! These people really know their vintage and have obviously painstakingly hand-picked only the finest pieces available. There's no rumaging through rubbish to find that one gem as everything you see makes you gasp.

But what makes this shop even more unique is the cosy tea room  upstairs which morph's into an events space at night. Open mic nights are very popular and Marques Toliver is known to make an occasional appearence which makes it even more worth a visit.

I can't reccomend this place enough. Even if you're not a vintage fan a visit to the tea room alone is a must. After a long day trawling Brick Lane and Spitalfields it's the perfect place to unwind with some tea and cake.
