Certain experiences can severely taint a place for me (negative association) like suffering that claustrophobic pang when watching a film that sickens you but is hard to walk out of, in this case “The heart is deceitful above all things” an utterly depressing film directed by and starring Asia Argento about a junky degenerate mother and her son, who she claims back from his loving foster parents only to show him how shit life can be. I haven’t honestly been back able to go back since, it’s been 2 years. Aside from that the ICA has everything conveniently housed under one roof. There’s a great Oliver Peyton (of Peyton and Byrne bakery’s) café/restaurant/bar, an art dvd/bookshop (which you can browse through then buy on Amazon), two cinema screens where they show various films and documentaries generally of an artistic persuasion and a venue where the likes of the Libertines play before they get famous. Its nicely located on the Mall just off Trafalgar Square so on approach there’s a good view on Buckingham palace.
