At just under 6 square miles Islington is the borough just north of the City, easily walked to from the centre and served by several tube stops. It's a varied area of beautiful green Georgian streets, busy thoroughfares, traditional and modern stores. It has a bit of everything, making it one of London's most popular neighbourhoods.
It may be presided over by a sunny, and wise, Californian but Towpath is unmistakably London. Situated by the Regents Canal, in kiosk like recesses, they serve up really good coffee as well as a delicious breakfast or lunch. The menu changes every day and it's always spot on. They refuse to give takeaway cups forcing you to watch the boats/runners/ducks go by, over a piccolo.
