Local guide


About Finsbury Park

Finsbury Park is located in North London and is a vibrant, cosmopolitan area. The streets are mainly residential and it is certainly a pub not club area with a mixture of gastropubs and traditional public houses. It is well connected to the rest of London as it is based on the Victoria line of the underground, one of the quickest lines into central London. A big draw for the area is the 110-acre park that has tennis courts, football pitches and even a boating lake, a nice break away from busy London living!
