There’s 2 Pret A Manger outlets within minutes of the property.
An old pub hoops & grapes is perfect for a pint or two.
Sainsbury (of course) and Tesco is also nearby.
Just have to watch out for large luggages at Aldgate station. They don’t provide elevators. As with most of London’s underground, it’s all steep steps.
Coming in from blackfriars station, we took Uber rather than the underground back, as the price was approx the same.
