<p>I've discovered this cafe which is away from the traffic and noise of Bounds Green, yet it is near the Tube station. </p>
<p>I took these photos last week while I was waiting for a train. I love the way the sunshine beams in on the coffee table and basks the venue in golden light. I've been buying coffee and porridge there for the last year and it is a nice, old fashioned venue set on the single platform of our local, hidden away, Victorian train station, Bowes Park, at the end of Myddleton…</p>

<p>I took these photos last week while I was waiting for a train. I love the way the sunshine beams in on the coffee table and basks the venue in golden light. I've been buying coffee and porridge there for the last year and it is a nice, old fashioned venue set on the single platform of our local, hidden away, Victorian train station, Bowes Park, at the end of Myddleton Road, N22 4NT. </p>

<p>It's open till 4pm every day and I recommend it to everyone who wants a peaceful hot drink and food during the day. Or somewhere interesting to meet friends at. It opens early in the morning to serve the commuters heading into London. </p>
<p></p>
<p>It's called Leafy Bean and it's owned and managed by staff who take a lot of care over the service and catering. Its a real gem and we are lucky to have an authentic and comfortable cafe in our community. </p>

<p>We've championed our local cafes, bars and shops - through <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/main/search/search?q=cash+mob" target="_blank">Cash Mobs</a> and <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/this-christmas-shop-local-and-support-our-independent-traders" target="_blank">Shop Local campaigns</a> on this website.</p>
<p>One thing we can all do is to support our existing independents. In the run-up to Christmas it is the time when more money is spent than at any other time of year - and a time our local shopkeepers rely on to keep open and profitable - proving local jobs and a healthy local economy.</p>
<p>We can all choose to spend our money locally and support the type of local shops we want to see more of.</p>
<p>So This weekend make a point of visiting your <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/this-christmas-shop-local-and-support-our-independent-traders" target="_blank">local shops and restaurants</a> - support the independent traders at <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/events/myddleton-road-christmas-market-sun-7-december" target="_blank">Myddleton Road Market</a> ... and if you are looking for a Christmas Tree try <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/oh-christmas-tree-oh-christmas-tree" target="_blank">Ruby's Cave</a> one of the recently shops in Bowes Park.</p> This Christmas - shop local and support our independent traderstag:bowesandbounds.org,2014-10-31:6278630:Topic:854362014-10-31T09:23:16.307ZRichard McKeeverhttps://bowesandbounds.org/profile/3hwxkqhdde8gc

<p>Whilst it can be an expensive season - it is also the time when, through our purses and pockets, we can make the biggest difference to our local independent traders, restaurants and craftspeople.</p>
<p>If we all pledge to shop local, where we can, spending our money within our local community we could ensure our independent traders have a bumper season and guarantee our favourite shops and businesses remain open throughout the forthcoming year.</p>
<p><strong>Gift shopping</strong><br/> There are many opportunities to buy original and distinctive Christmas gifts. The Chocolate Factory in Wood Green is home to dozens of artists and makers - and on the weekend of November 15th and 16th the <strong><a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/events/n22-open-studios-1" target="_blank">Chocolate Factory Open Studios</a></strong> event is a great chance to meet local artists and buy one-off originals: jewellery, art, ceramics and clothing; direct from the maker.</p>
<p>Fast becoming a fixture on the calendar the <strong><a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/events/designer-craft-art-fair-1" target="_blank">Designer Craft & Art Fair</a></strong> on Nov 16th at Cannon Hill Southgate features innovative creations from 28 local designer makers all under one roof, for just one day. Gifts include Elizabethan inspired jewellery, graphic art, glass and textiles, original cartoons and recycled/upcycled artworks from from talented designers.</p>
<p>A <strong><a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/events/community-craft-market" target="_blank">Community Craft Market</a></strong> at Palmerston Road's TaB Centre on November 8th is another opportunity to seek out some individual gifts and of course the next <strong><a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/events/myddleton-road-christmas-market-sun-7-december" target="_blank">Myddleton Road Market</a></strong> on December 7th will have a crafts and art theme. There will be lots of original pieces on offer as well as some distinctive vintage gifts from the regular traders.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>Food shopping</strong></p>
<p><strong><a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/events/myddleton-road-christmas-market-sun-7-december" target="_blank">Myddleton Road Market</a></strong> is also a great place to start your Christmas Food shopping - with lots of cakes, preserves, chutney and coffee potentially forming gifts and stocking fillers.</p>
<p>In addition since last Christmas the range of local specialist stores has increased with <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/amazing-new-greek-deli-on-myddleton-road" target="_blank">Hellenic Gourmet</a>, <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/let-s-use-it" target="_blank">Domipol</a> and <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/la-coppia-nights-starting-this-friday" target="_blank">La Coppia</a> each offering distinctive foodstuffs.</p>
<p></p>
<p><strong>Eating Out</strong></p>
<p>As well as a stylish deli counter <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/la-coppia-nights-starting-this-friday" target="_blank">La Coppia</a> is also a great place to go out for a relaxed supper or a lively lunch; joining established favourites <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/fatisa-restaurant-wood-green-high-road" target="_blank">Fatisa</a> on the corner of Woodside Park and of course <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/the-step-featured-in-haringey-people-magazine" target="_blank">The Step</a> which just seems to go from strength to strength<strong>.</strong></p>
<p>If you are looking for somewhere to eat out locally <strong>Pete's</strong> <a href="http://www.bowesandbounds.org/forum/topics/the-step-featured-in-haringey-people-magazine" target="_blank">Haringey Menus experiment</a> could provide some new ideas.</p>
<p>Overall there is lots on offer in our neck of the woods -as well as avoiding the crowds in the West End or Brent Cross, shopping locally supports our neighbours who run independent businesses and keeps the cash in our community.</p>
<p><strong>Shop local for Christmas!</strong></p>
