Finsbury Park
Finsbury Park is a Zone 2 Inner North London location with great transport links, actual green spaces and lots of things to do. Add pretty houses, tree lined streets and more places to eat and drink than you can shake a (baguette) stick at and you have a rather lovely place to live, work and play. An array of good pubs, coffee houses and the pull of the burgeoning restaurant scene have seen young families, creative professionals and couples move to the area in their droves. A neighbour of the more upmarket Highbury and the decidedly grittier Manor House, Finsbury Park is like that cool cousin you really wanted to be friends with when you were a kid – friendly, unassuming and quietly trendy. The area has a longstanding musical and arts heritage running through its veins, which goes some way to explaining that undercurrent of ‘cool’ that you just can’t quite place your finger on.

The undisputed king of Finsbury Park has to be PAK. Dominating Stroud Green Road with a small army of shops specialising in wigs, extensions, hair and beauty products, with all that synthetic weave if there was a great fire of Finsbury Park PAK would go up in flames the quickest. Never fear, they sell real hair too. Phew. Try PAK Cosmetics, it’s like a treasure chest of bath, beauty and hair products - on our last trip we bought peach hair dye, a snail serum face mask and a mud mask for your ears.
