Local guide
About Angel
Angel is a highly sought-after part of London, and for good reason. It's packed with trendy bars and restaurants lining Upper Street — the main road running from Angel through to Highbury and Islington — and an array of independent shops lining its side streets. A commuter's dream, Angel not only borders the north of London, but is also within walking distance of East London's Shoreditch, and borders King’s Cross...
