Food Scene
Turkish Ocakbasi charcoal-grill kebabs and meze. Incredible value for money, and highly recommended if you have a meat craving and you are on a budget. However, the ambience is not the best- we wouldn’t take someone here on a date.

Our favourite local curry house, they serve very interesting interpretations of well-known Indian dishes. We have never eaten at the restaurant, even though it looks very elegant, but have used them many times for food deliveries.

They say fish and chips is a British favourite, though sadly most places serve very greasy and low quality offerings. This restaurant claims to do things differently.

Our favourite gastropub in the area - if you are looking for a British gastropub experience, then we would recommend this place. English cuisine has undergone a serious renaissance in the last 7 years, and the food at The Havelock is a good example of how good English food is becoming in London!
