Bistro Aix | 54, Topsfield Parade, Tottenham Ln, N8 8PT

Capturing rural France’s gourmet tastes, Bistro Aix’s romantic and quaint aura makes for the perfect intimate dining locale. Dishes are crafted using all-organic fresh fruit, vegetables, eggs, lamb, pork, and poultry. The A La Carte Menu features a variety of vegetarian and vegan options; satisfying even the most passionate connoisseurs. Main dishes start from £15.

Sacro Cuore | 10 Crouch End Hill, N8 8AA

If you’re in the mood for an authentic Italian Pizzeria experience in the heart of Crouch End, Sacro Cuore is the place to go. Imagine pizza hand-stretched by chefs trained in Naples—the birthplace of pizza, made using fresh ingredients delivered from Italy daily, baked in an oven carefully-built by Neapolitan artisans. A classic Margherita pizza starts from £8.45, and you’ll be happy to know the menu serves two new specials every week, one meat and one vegetarian.

Lyon’s Seafood & Wine Bar | 1 Park Rd, N8 8TE

Seafood & Wine—a heavenly culinary combination. Lyon’s thoughtfully-sourced quality seafood is the focal point of their delicious dishes such as dressed Morecambe Bay oysters with pickled cucumber and dill mayo. The whole chargrilled catch of the day is served with samphire and caper butter. Their fresh food menus paired with an uncommon array of locally-sourced wines — such as from ‘urban’ winery Renegade in Bethnal Green, London — and its elegant yet comfortable vibe, make it one of the most raved-about restaurants in Crouch End. Small seafood dishes start from £10 and large plates from £23

Quality kitchens

The quality of fixtures within a rental home is certainly something we find tenants are conscious of when they view a property.  High-end kitchen appliances do make a property more appealing and, again, tenants will pay a higher rental for such a place.

Many of us are spending more time in the kitchen cooking with fresh produce and making the move away from processed foods.  Our kitchens are also where we entertain family and friends; it’s where we are most often drawn to, which is why it’s affectionately known as the ‘heart of the home’.

Pacatta | 50 Topsfield Parade, N8 8PT

Discover the vibrant soul of traditional Thai cuisine at Pacatta. Its eclectic ambience creates an inviting eatery that’s fantastic for all ages. The Chef’s lunch recommendation is a Thai Green Chicken or Vegetable Curry that tempts local gourmet time and time again, especially considering when ordered with fragrant rice, the authentic dish costs £7.50.

The Haberdashery | 22 Middle Lane, N8 8PL

The Haberdashery is a sought-after quirky, vintage-inspired local coffee shop and cafe. Think hot drinks served in cosies with patchwork bunting draped here and there. You won’t be disappointed by their award-winning traditional British breakfasts, pastries and wholesome meals freshly made to order at reasonable prices. It’s all the more charming when kids get to select from a dedicated menu!

We hope our list of must-try places to eat in Crouch End has helped you find the perfect solution for kicking cravings to the wayside.
