The Neighborhood:
In Islington, it’s very much a case of North meets East London! A variety of cool hangouts await, from jazz clubs and upmarket cinemas, to the hip and picturesque shopping streets of Camden Passage and Exmouth Market. Once overlooked, improved appearances and infrastructure brought about by the 2012 Olympics have seen this neighbourhood soar in popularity. Although it is only 10 minutes from the centre of the Capital and is now home to a good smattering of chains, Islington has managed to maintain its neighbourhood character, as well as the individuality of many of its shops, bars and restaurants. Its well-established theatres and arts venues have gone from strength to strength, and continue to showcase the best of British drama, dance, and art.
The area’s proximity to large green spaces like Highbury Fields and long stretches of Regent’s Canal, make finding free things to do in Islington no problem. The 8.6 miles of the Regent’s Canal transports you to an oasis that feels miles away from the city. Walkers, dog walkers, cyclists, joggers, boaters and paddle boarders can all be found along the tranquil waterways that exist in parallel with scenic walkways, gardens and waterside eateries.
A perfect lunchtime hub, Exmouth Market is a charming collection of independent shops, restaurants, and cafés. Its semi-pedestrianised layout instils that delightful feeling of wandering or dining along a European street.
Open artist spaces, canal scenery and quirky shopping streets mean there’s plenty to see on strolls around Islington’s neighbourhoods. Weekends and evenings are filled with arts and live events in inspirational spaces.
Getting Around:
Tube: Highbury & Islington station is in Zone 2 and a journey to Oxford Circus takes seven minutes on the Victoria Line, while the Overground from Highbury & Islington connects to Clapham Junction, New Cross, Canada Water, Shoreditch and Stratford. Angel Tube station is on the Bank branch of the Northern Line. Its Zone 1 location means it’s only five minutes to Bank and seven to London Bridge.
Trains: A commuter train run by Thameslink Great Northern links to Old Street and Moorgate on weekdays.
Buses: Islington is well served by buses, with 19 routes connecting through Angel. These include the 4 (to Waterloo), 214 (to Highgate Village), and 38 (to Victoria). There are also several night buses.
