Hi Carotte,
The East End is now getting really fashionable, and there's nothing wrong with the Bow Church area at all.
There are some great things to do in the neighbourhood, here's a few of them:
* Hackney Empire - this is a great place for theatre, comedy, dance and music productions
* Broadway Market and Broadway Market
* Backyard Comedy Club - started by Lee Hurst the comedian
* Victoria Park - a lovely park in East London tailing off onto the Hertford Union Canal
There are also loads of great bars and restaurants all around the area.
Hope this has helped you out!
