Workplaces with two uses: your photos and stories

We've all heard of bookshops with cafes, but have you been to a motorbike workshop that doubles as a restaurant? Jon Henley went to Hurwundeki in east London to find out more about why dual purpose places are doing so well. Not only did he get his haircut but he also sampled the Korean cuisine that was on offer. Now we'd like to hear of your stories and experiences.

Do you know of any workplaces or business in the UK or around the world that offer more than one service? Perhaps you know of a great bar that also sells books or a laundromat cafe? Share your photos, videos and stories with us and we'll feature the best on the Guardian site.

You can submit by clicking on the blue 'Contribute' button or upload using the GuardianWitness app.
