We know looking for the perfect spot to get a bite to eat can be time-consuming. Whether it's cheap eats for mid-week meals with friends you're after, or the opportunity to splash the cash on a full feast, we've got you covered. Boasting everything from pizza to tacos, here is a list of the best restaurants in Stoke Newington.
The Jolly Butchers not only serve a great selection of craft beer and ale, but also contemporary North Indian food and Sunday roasts. Try out their extensive menu, which includes everything from from tandoori machii with grilled salmon to papaya and mint pudhini lamb chops.
Tapas bar Escocesa combines a love of Scottish seafood and Spanish cuisine, with a name that even means 'Scottish' in Spanish topping it all off. Not only will you get produce like Orkney hand-dived scallops, Cumbrae oyster (which are only £1.50 each before 7pm on weekdays and all day Sundays), and fresh octopus, but also slow cooked Iberian pig cheek and patatas bravas. Plus, executive chef Pablo Rodriguez has a background at Michelin star restaurant Jean Luc Figueras in Catalunya, so you know you're in safe hands.
Pairing Asian-inspired tacos with killer cocktails is Stoke Newington restaurant, Victory Mansion. Settle down in their vintage space to enjoy mouthwatering fillings of red Thai pork loin or torched sea bream, all washed down by a film and novel-inspired drinks list.
When it comes to standout restaurants in Stoke Newington, Sonora Taqueria has become a true neighbourhood icon. Its minimalist space keeps the spotlight firmly on the food, while the lively, queue-out-the-door atmosphere speaks to its popularity.
Look forward to tacos loaded with grilled meats or vibrant nopales; it's a place where simplicity and quality come together, drawing locals and visitors alike to this buzzing High Street favourite.
The Londesborough is a well-loved family run boozer in Stoke Newington, which serves all the tasty classics you could need. Tuck into grilled whole sea bream with pan friend potatoes, or their signature Sunday roast with all the trimmings.
Right in the heart of Stoke Newington, Calong serves up some serious pedigree with its comforting dishes. Helmed by Chef-Owner Joo Won, formerly of Galvin at Windows, this place holds a Michelin Bib Gourmand among its many accolades.
Its regularly changing plates are refined yet relaxed and unfussy at the same time. Think Joo's Fried Chicken, and Cornish pollock with mooli jorim.
A modern Southern Italian eatery with gorgeous interiors, including a luscious wall of foliage, Wolf is a great choice for your next meal out. Alongside the usual lineup of pasta, you'll find brunch, seafood and Sicilian wine.
Formerly known as L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele, Vicoli Di Napoli is one of the best Italian restaurants in Stoke Newington. Why? It's whipping up crowd-pleasing of slices of wood-fired Neapolitan pizza using traditional recipes and delish toppings.
