Food Scene

Great artisan brunches with tasty wholesome dishes. Walking distance. Not on the doorstep, but not far. This place would fit into hipster Hackney in a heartbeat (don't let that put you off)

Legend has it; named due to it being the first port of call for released Pentonville inmates; this is an old school cafe serving a range of solid and tasty no frills grub. From Full English to Jacket Potatoes; wait for your number to be called and sit and have a look at the prison and the colourful characters that inhabit it. Or read lots of the newspapers scattered around the plentiful tables.

These lovely people serve the best Jumbo Jacket potatoes in town. They also serve a multitude of sandwiches, salads, breakfasts as well as fresh juices and a builders tea. Customers range from road workers to the Underground staff, to students, to locals, to passing policemen. Be sure to grab a seat and enjoy fine food at a really reasonable price made by lovely and friendly staff. Take Away as well.

Drinks & Nightlife

Lovely flowers outside, cosy red lighting inside. Unusual local pub on the corner of a residential roundabout. Great for just chilling and an evening pint with conversation.

Amazing 70s Decor. Very secret though. Check out their website as it's a members only bar - but membership is quite simple to attain. Amazing cocktails and open late.

This is definitely an acquired taste. VERY old school. VERY no frills. Hundreds of TV screens showing horse racing, Irish Football, Football. But, if you like a stripped back place with no ego and spit and sawdust; this is your place.

If you are a rocker - you'll love it here. Pool tables a plenty. Lots of interesting alternative people. Great music, and loads of booths to sit in. Open late. It's like the Viper Rooms of Holloway Road.

Arts & Culture

Little secret theatre. The Depot attached is a deceitfully large pub. With great beers, food and space. Very quiet and a place to breathe.
