"Some of Time Out's favourite things in Islington include restaurants Trullo, Farang and FKA Black Axe Mangal, shops like Aria, Nourished Communities and FARA Charity Shop and cultural hotspots like Union Chapel and Almeida Theatre . Obviously, when you're living (rather than just visiting) somewhere, there are more practical things to think about, too. Muddy Stilettos points out that Islington is a particularly great area for families."
"It's a prime spot for top schools like St Mary Magdalene Academy for primary age kids, City of London Academy Islington for high schoolers or City of London School for Girls, North Bridge House if you want to go private. It's also an excellent location for commuting, with the Northern line, Victoria line and Overground all at your service at various local stations."
Islington blends cool city vibes with a laid-back village feel, supported by green spaces such as the Regent's Canal and New River and a strong independent-business culture. The neighbourhood features notable restaurants, shops and cultural venues, with examples including Trullo, Farang, FKA Black Axe Mangal, Aria, Nourished Communities, FARA Charity Shop, Union Chapel and Almeida Theatre. The area is family-friendly with good primary, secondary and private school options. Transport links are strong, with access to the Northern and Victoria lines and the Overground. Residential desirability drives relatively high property prices and living costs.
