A super cozy, cute little theatre with great film listings, fair prices, a cafe with cheap food, and helpful staff - love it. My only complaint is that I don't live close enough to go there on a more regular basis.A super cozy, cute little theatre with great film listings, fair prices, a cafe with cheap food, and helpful staff - love it.

The Women's Library is a sweet place and more people should know about it. The exhibitions (about different women's issues) are really thoughtful and contrary to the review above you don't have to pay to read the books, just fill out a form.The Women's Library is a sweet place and more people should know about it.

Freedom Press and Bookshop is down an alley off Whitechapel High Street next to KFC.

Past the mural of prominent anarchist figures from the last century or so, behind the painted door then up a narrow flight of stairs lies a cosy hive. To your left is a computer resource space, on the right the bookshop housing anarchist texts, newspapers and pamphlets from the world over.

Upstairs is a small meeting room and the offices of Freedom Newspaper (the oldest anarchist newspaper in the world) founded by several influential anarchists in 1886.

This place is well worth a visit, not only for the books it houses but because its a little bit of the historical East End of London.
