Many cafés, bars and restaurants utilise pavement space creating a pavement café culture in the area.

There are however a significant number of thriving independent businesses, such as George & Joseph Cheesemongers, Crust & Crumb, Opposite, House of Koko, Deliziosa, Hern, Pinche Pinche, and many more.
