Time Out says

Here’s a fact for you: it’s impossible for a shopping district that’s born out of what was once a Victorian coal depot to be anything other than ultra cool and trendy. Worlds away from your standard Westfield (much as we love the multiplex), the list of stores, bars and restaurants in Coal Drops Yard is pretty alternative. Of the shops, some, you may know – Aesop, Cos, Paul Smith – but most will be completely new (and also your new obsession), such as LA label Twiin and menswear boutique Universal Works. On the food and drink front you’ll find a new outpost for the trusty tapas restaurant Barrafina nestled among edgy new eateries and concept bars. Check out Casa Pastor for tacos and Coal Office for delicious mezze fare.

What’s on

San Gennaro Festival

Coal Drops Yard is being transformed into a Neapolitan piazza for the weekend, filled with street food, art, film, performances and workshops for San Gennaro Fest. Over two days, you’ll find the Kings Cross shopping district packed with stalls selling everything from arancini to panelle while independent chefs will be recreating traditional Neapolitan dishes. There’ll be flash mobs and children’s activities as well as an eclectic musical line-up of live DJs, folk musicians and traditional chants. Stick around for a showcase of international short films curated by San Gennaro POP and AnotherStory Lab, plus a photographic exhibition looking at ritual, faith and community in Naples. Stupendo.
