Entertainment & Activities
Vue Cinema London - Islington

This single-screen venue is one of London’s oldest continuously running cinemas (the current building was opened in 1913) and has a varied program that includes National Theatre Live screenings, film festivals, Q&A sessions and midnight screenings of cult classics. Simultaneously whimsical and edgy, this is a cinema with character aplenty.

Started in the 1970s as London's first pub theatre on a spectacularly lean budget, the King's Head Theatre is a tiny space tucked away at the back of a Victorian boozer on Islington's Upper Street. In the past, it's helped launched a raft of stars, among them Hugh Grant, Steven Berkoff and Alan Rickman, and today boasts Joanna Lumley and Tom Stoppard as patrons. It flirted with a major change of direction in 2011 when Adam Spreadbury-Maher became artistic director and turned it into a fringe opera venue, though it has since reverted to a more traditional fringe-style programme.

Feels like walking through Dickensian London. Nestled behind the always-humming Upper Street you’ll find Camden Passage, a vintage treasure trove crammed with wheeled wooden stalls, cafes, independent boutiques and one of London’s oldest antique markets. First opened in the 1960s, the Camden Passage Antiques Market, trading on Saturdays, is a favourite haunt for antiques dealers, collectors, interior designers and clued-up locals. Some of the arcades and stalls have been in the same family for generations, making the street feel just a little frozen in time. A delightful, community-focused alternative to Portobello Road. While you're there, try The Elk in the Woods, a unique gastropub decked up like an old-fashioned hunting lodge (no. 37-39), and the local branch of Paul A Young for some world-beating chocolates (no. 33). Meanwhile, Vintage clothes fans will want to check out Annie's (no. 12), which has been selling glamourous outfits and accessories since 1978

Drinks & Nightlife
The Angelic
57 Liverpool RdLovely cosy pub, big fireplaces upstairs.
A favourite haunt of Jack Whitehall, the cosy and inviting Hen & Chickens has plenty of theatrical sprit. Hosting London’s emerging talent alongside some of the biggest names in comedy – Russell Brand and Jimmy Carr have both taken to the stage here – all acts are affectionately referred to as ‘The Chicks’. This pub also features a superlative line-up of specialty beers, real ales, ciders, its own wine club, jukebox (oh yes) and food menu specially designed for pre-show grazing. Local art adorns the walls while leathery couches add character to the floor.
