Leake Street, Waterloo/ Lambeth
This quirky creepy tunnel encloses all kinds of goodies under it’s archways. From the hard to miss graffiti to the more tucked away eateries offering all kind of delicacies. Such as Banh Bao Brothers , Rat Bar and Draughts.
And let’s not forget to mention The Vaults! If you don’t know of it, your life has been boring af! Bit harsh, if you haven’t heard of it, definitely check them out if you’re into interactive theatre and altogether electric eccentricity.
And now, onto the graffiti!
Here are some of my favourite pieces within the 300 metre long tunnel, I think art constantly gets replaced with new art so I think it;s good to get a snapshot of time of the art of the moment:
Wide shot of the tunnel, sorry for the car!
Celebrity spotting! Anthony Hopkins and Tilda Swinton.
Mind blowing artwork exhibited within the archways at The Rat Bar.
A rodent twist on the masterpiece – The Mona Lisa by Leonardi Da Vinci at Rat Bar, London.
You Know I had to do it, Nike call me!
Disturbingly Beautiful.
“Computer games don’t affect kids. If Pac-Man affected us as kids we would all be messing about in darkened places munching………”
We Are All Mad / Follow Your Heart
The wonderful pieces above are just the tip of the iceberg, I’d highly recommend paying the archways a visit if you come to London. It really is a feast for the eyes.
