Black Axe Mangal is, arguably, the jewel in Highbury’s crown. Only BAM wouldn’t really wear a crown. Unless it was drunk, naked, and air guitaring to Queens of the Stone Age. Then it would wear a crown. Come to this little, smoky delight if you want to have fun and eat fun food. Because that’s what BAM’s about.

One minute from Highbury and Islington station is St. Pauls Road, and another extremely good parade of restaurants, cafes, and things you need to eat and drink. St Paul Islington is one of these places. It’s a spacious coffee-cum-wine-bar place that does everything you’d expect. Sandwiches, charcuterie, coffee, wine, massages, avocado facials, dog therapy, camembert counselling. Okay maybe not all those things but you get our drift.

Highbury is spoiled for spots where you can get a great glass of wine and something nice to eat too, but Linden Stores shouldn’t be overlooked. It’s a few minutes walk away from Highbury Corner, but it’s well worth the stroll. You’ll find a bright wine shop up top where you can grab a quick glass, and there’s an exposed brick cave downstairs too. The kitchen serves small but satisfying portions of things like oxtail pie with marrow mash, or roasted beets with prune puree and hung yoghurt. Unsurprisingly, they all work well with the wide range of wine on offer, much of which is available by the glass.
