Coming up in June 2023

Thames views, art, architecture and a double helping of a classic East End bakery – coming up in June

Our June walk: North Greenwich – Saturday 10th June, 11.00 

If you'd like some fresh air, join us at North Greenwich station to take a stroll around all the public art, architecture and landscape of the riverside scene and perhaps recapture the excitement of the Millennium Dome.

Meet at North Greenwich Underground Station, SE10 0BH at the top of the escalators at 11.00am.

Our June talk: Rinkoff's Bakery – Thursday 15th June, 7pm for 7.30pm at St Margaret's House, Old Ford Rd, E2 9PL

A representative of Rinkoff’s – the long-established East End bakery started in 1911 – will be talking to us about their family business. We will travel through the history of four generations who originally migrated to London from Kiev over a century ago. 

If the gate is locked when you arrive at St Margaret’s House, there will be a call bell on the right hand side at the back of the gate.

Our June coffee morning: Rinkoff's Bakery – Friday 23rd June, 10.30-ish  

Following on from our talk, our coffee morning this month is at Rinkoff's Bakery/café, 242 Jubilee St, E1 3BS. It is just off Whitechapel Road, so easy access. The café is small, but it does have a few tables outside and a bit of shade. 

Nearest tube station: Stepney Green, or buses 25 and 205. Rinkoff’s is through the arch under the flats.
