Electric Cinema

Sister to the Electric in Shoreditch, and even more luxurious, this smart reinvention of an old 1910 cinema has six actual beds in the front row (£35 for two people), as well as leather armchairs with footstools (£19) and back-row sofas (£45 for two). It’s a great respite if you’ve braved the madness of Portobello Market. I have never understood why cinemas limit themselves to popcorn, hot dogs, and pick ’n’ mix. So I love that this place serves high-end popcorn and crisps and allows you to take in food and beer from the Electric Diner upstairs.
