Places to explore in Tottenham Hale

With excellent transport links just a 3-minute walk away - including bus, National Rail and the Victoria line - getting around London is a breeze. And when you're not travelling, there are plenty of great local spots right on your doorstep to explore!

Our Hall Rep Leah has compiled some of her favourite places to check out if you are moving to Emily Bowes Court.

1. Beavertown Brewery 🍻

Just a 4 min walk away is the first main brewery in Tottenham, Beavertown is open every Saturday and Sunday to the public. 

The successful beer company that can be found in almost every pub and bar is a great way to spend a sunny afternoon drinking on the weekend as we move into the summer months, so I would definitely check out this great location at Lockwood Industrial estate that started it all for this company.  

2. Tottenham Hale Canal Walk / Lee Valley Walk

Just across the road from Emily Bowes is the entrance to the Tottenham Hale canal, which is an incredible place for a summer's day walk. 

The canal has some lovely waterside pubs and cafes to stop in along the way. The canal sidewalk can take you all the way down to Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park as Stratford is much closer to Tottenham Hale than you think. 

The wildlife that you see along the way is well worth the visit, even if you’re not up for the walk down the canal with lots of families of swans, geese and even loads of cats! 

3. Tottenham Hotspur Stadium Tour  👀

Whether you’re a football fan or not the Spurs stadium is a must see. 

Opening at the start of the 2019 Premier League Season, at a reported cost of £1 billion, the Spurs stadium is home to not only a football team but also the host of many NFL UK games. 

If sports aren’t your bag, why not take on the Dare Skywalk? You'll be 50 meters high overlooking the stadium as well as breathtakingly views of London. 

Address: Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, 782 High Rd, London, Greater London, N17 0BX

Sky high London experience

4. Ferry Boat Inn🍴

Just a short 7-minute walk away, you can head down to the Ferry Boat Inn pub. 

Offering classic, hearty pub food and a drinks range to suit everyone, the Ferry Boat Inn is your perfect one-stop shop. If you’re looking to enjoy a glass of wine or ale in the beer garden next to their log fire or looking to enjoy a quintessentially British Sunday roast, they have got you covered. 

5. The Gym 🏋🏽‍♀️

Right below the Emily Bowes building is The Gym with its 24/7 opening times and their affordable monthly fee, what more could you ask for!? 🤩 

Whether you are into working out at your own pace or classes such as body conditioning, boot camp sessions and HIT, there is something for everyone. 

6. Tottenham Hale retail park 🛍

Just across the road is the retail park. It has all the essential stores for students such as Boots, Poundland and Costa Coffee and, best of all, Aldi and Iceland!  

These are perfect places for a cost-effective food shop. However, if you’re not in the mood to cook, why not stop at Burger King or Subway to grab a quick take away.
