Welcome to London x London’s Finsbury Park Guide: your guide to the best bars, restaurants and things to do in this North London neighbourhood.
Finsbury Park sits at the meeting point of the Islington, Haringey and Hackney borough boundaries, built up around the park that gives the area its name.
A genuinely global hub in North London, Finsbury Park grew up as a meeting point for people passing through, and its restaurants still reflect that.
Bangladeshi curry houses sit alongside Cypriot kebab shops and African restaurants, all within a short walk of the park that gives the area its name.
Finsbury Park grew to prominence as a convergence point of the expanding boroughs around it, a meeting place for people on their way elsewhere in London. As the world has become more global, so have its residents, and nowhere is that better reflected than in the local food scene.
It’s worth trying as much of it as you can manage, then walking it off with a stroll through the park itself.
