At just under 6 square miles Islington is the borough just north of the City, easily walked to from the centre and served by several tube stops. It's a varied area of beautiful green Georgian streets, busy thoroughfares, traditional and modern stores. It has a bit of everything, making it one of London's most popular neighbourhoods.
New to Islington, Oldroyd is a perfect restaurant from the former chef director of Polpo. You can book upstairs, walk in downstairs, and eat everywhere from breakfast to dinner. The food, using British ingredients, is modern European and really very yum. We also like their lights.
