Walthamstow Market is the longest street market in England and a bargain hunter's paradise. Stalls sell food, homewares, fabric, books, bags and clothes. My favourite kebab stall is there just outside Santander, go early or he may sell out.

Sightseeing
You can see all of London from the UK’s tallest sculpture. Created by Anish Kapoor and Cecil Balmond, the magnificent looping structure of the ArcelorMittal Orbit is an iconic symbol of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park and the London 2012 Games. It’s the best place to see the sweeping panorama of the city.

Drinks & Nightlife
Leyton Technical is located in the old Town Hall, a couple of hundred yards from Leyton Underground station on the High Road. It has been restored keeping many of the original features of the building, including its marbled mosaic floors, beautiful high ceilings and chandeliers, and awarded a Commendation for ‘Best Heritage Scheme’ by Waltham Forest Council. The building alone is worth popping in for, but the experience is worth staying for.

Cheap and cheerful but full on flavour curry restaurant. If you like authentic curry, this is the place and they don't do curry only, there are wonderful snacks, sweets and deserts for take out and eat in. One of my favourites.
