Retail, Food and Drink There are limited retail uses within the study area. The few shops that do exist are located at Felstead Street on the northern edge of the study area plus a small ‘corner shop’ that is part of the Lion Works complex on Wallis Road and a mini-market at the Omega Works. In addition there is the German Deli Warehouse Shop in the Hamlet Industrial Estate at 96 White Post Lane.
Food and drink (A3 + A4) uses are scattered more widely through Hackney Wick. They are very much a minority use but play an important role as meeting places for the local creative community as well as in the area’s tentative night-time economy, with a growing number of visitors to the area. There are cafés on Felstead Street and the Hackney Pearl on Prince Edward Road. Other outlets include the CRATE pizzeria and micro brewery in The White Building, a cluster of A3 uses along Roach Road (Foreman’s, Counter Café, Carlton Cafe) and Café Greenway at the west end of Dace Road.
