Humdingers Highbury - (Near Islington, london)

Yosmary Pestana I’ve spent a lot of time at Gail’s in High Barnet during my maternity leave. As a new mum, finding places that genuinely feel welcoming and practical can be surprisingly difficult, but Gail’s really stands out on the high street. It’s one of the few coffee shops locally with accessible bathroom facilities for mums with babies, including a proper baby changing facility. That alone makes such a difference. Every time I come in with the buggy, the team are kind and helpful. They often open the door for me when they can and have never once made me feel awkward or uncomfortable about bringing the pram inside. Sadly, that hasn’t been my experience everywhere on the high street. Some places make you feel like arriving with a baby and buggy is an inconvenience, almost as though you are a liability rather than a paying customer. Gail’s is the complete opposite. The team are warm, welcoming and understanding, which means so much during those early months when even leaving the house can feel like an achievement. On top of that, the food and coffee are consistently great, and the café is always clean and comfortable. It has been a lovely and reliable place to spend time, meet other mums, or simply enjoy a quiet coffee. Well done to the team at Gail’s High Barnet. You have created a space that genuinely welcomes mums and babies, and it does not go unnoticed.

Elena Kyriacou Gorgeous food and lovely staff. Amazing experience from when you come in until you leave. Highly recommend.

Tetiana Martynova Sushi are very tasty. Fresh products, amazing taste! Highly recommended!

Wendy Wendy This restaurant is a little gem. The food was amazing, the quality of the meat was unreal. We had a vegetarian with us and her food was amazing and very tasteful. The moment you arrive you feel like you are in a restaurant in Turkey. The Decor is very tasteful, the food is outstanding and not just your average kebab. We had plenty of starters and all delicious. Good choice of drinks and service was very good. Definitely will recommend this little Gem and cannot wait to come back.

Evangelo Panagi Out of all the gastro pubs we try in north london this is the one we know will deliver! Been here several times, staff are always pleasant and attentive, Sunday roasts are spot on and on the odd occasion when something isn’t quit right they’ll sort it apologetically. Hence the 5 stars. Looking forward to our next visit.
