Michelle Meola Absolutely delicious pizza from this little gem, tucked away off Drayton Park. Im always tempted by the smell of pizza as I walk by and was glad I stopped on my way home tonight. Really friendly and accommodating staff, I got this tasty Capricciosa without ham for a Veggie modification made fresh in no time. Just found out theyre also open for coffee in the morning. Locals should definitely stop by and check them out. Grazie!!!

Canonbury Carpentry Popped in Humdingers Highbury for the first time when I was working local to them. After looking at the menu I asked for a breakfast bun but was told they wasn’t cooking hot food at that time. However the staff were very helpful and pointed me in the direction of their pre-made sandwiches/rolls which they told they would heat up. Opted for a tuna roll, and an apricot pastry. The roll was fresh and extremely filling, the pastry was probably the best pastry I’ve ever had. £8 for the 2 items and drink, very reasonable for fresh delicious food that filled me up for the rest of the day. Will definitely be going back.

Dominique I recently had lunch at a restaurant that is well worth a visit! From the moment I arrived, I was greeted with friendly and attentive service, which set a warm and inviting tone. The food was delicious from start to finish. The boquerones were delicately marinated and a real treat as a starter. The grated carrots with smoked ricotta were fresh and had a nice balance of flavors. The pollack was well-cooked, though the accompanying chanterelles were slightly overcooked for my taste. However, the dish was still flavorful and satisfying overall. To finish, the dessert was the highlight: a white chocolate mousse paired with rhubarb, which added just the right amount of tartness to balance the sweetness of the chocolate. I’d happily return for another visit!

T T The little family run cafe is an excellent spot for those seeking a delicious breakfast or brunch. The cafe is well known for its friendly and welcoming atmosphere, thanks to the kind and hospitable owners.

shel Red The three-course Christmas meal was absolutely delicious and beautifully thought out from start to finish. The starter of portobello mushroom was rich, hearty, and perfectly cooked, offering deep, earthy flavours that set the tone for the rest of the meal. The main course, turkey, was wonderfully tender and full of traditional festive flavour. It was cooked to perfection, juicy and satisfying, and paired brilliantly with the accompanying elements to create a comforting and classic Christmas experience. To finish, the apple and strawberry crumble was a real highlight. The fruit was sweet and gently tangy, balanced perfectly by a golden, crumbly topping that added just the right amount of texture. It was a delightful and indulgent end to a fantastic meal. Overall, this three-course Christmas dinner was comforting, flavoursome, and thoughtfully prepared — a truly enjoyable festive treat that left everyone feeling content and well cared for.

Andy Honey Great place for fresh food. Great service and lots of choice. Can get busy quickly, so make sure you call ahead or pick a quiet time to dine.
