**About the Area**
Mentioned in Shakespeareâs sonnets and popping up in works by Charles Dickens, William Thackeray and William Morris, Clerkenwell has always been a hive of creativity. Today this is manifested in Clerkenwellâs thriving design sector, luring a trendy young crowd of professionals who thrive in this dynamic environment. At the weekend, residents make the most of the areaâs bustling markets, restaurants and bars, while enjoying a quick commute to the heart of the City of London during the week. Catering to this demographic, property in Clerkenwell is mostly made up of modern, high end flats and apartments, many of which boast stunning views over Londonâs skyline. Despite this central location, proximity to Farringdon station means a quick weekend getaway is always an option.
With the meat of Smithfield Market, London's first ever gastropub and the nose-to-tail Michelin-starred marvels at St John, Clerkenwell has long been a regular go-to spot for those who know a thing or two about eating and drinking. And it's only getting better, with any new restaurants and bars forced to impress by the sheer weight of the competition - you've got to be good to do well here. The area also happens to be one of London's most attractive, so it's little wonder that its historic old buildings play host to a fair few architects and designers - hell, it's even got its own Design Week.
Eating: Clerkenwell residents are certainly not short of choice when it comes to dining options. The area has a thriving international food scene and restaurants like Polpo, St John Bar and Restaurant and Sushi Tetsu are rightly classed as some of the best in the Capital. What is often claimed to be the first gastropub, The Eagle on Farringdon Road is still going strong, now joined by many competitors including The Peasant and The Easton.
Markets: Clerkenwell is a foodieâs haven, home to three of Londonâs finest food markets. Exmouth Market is located in the heart of Clerkenwell, along a street lined with trendy cafes and restaurants like Caravan and Moro. Smithfield Market is the largest wholesale meat market in the UK. For the true Smithfield experience, visit early in the morning as the traders set up shop. Whitecross Street Market is popular with City workers looking for a tasty takeaway lunch. Leather Lane Market is home to an eclectic array of stalls, selling everything from handbags to freshly squeezed juices.
Culture: Sadlerâs Wells Theatre is one of the worldâs best contemporary dance venues and its cutting edge original performances draw half a million people to its shows every year. The nearby Barbican centre, meanwhile, can boast a large range of theatre, cinema, music and arts offerings. The award winning Clerkenwell Design Week showcases the best of local and international design in a series of annual events and exhibitions.
