Stroud Green road has a brilliant vibe, traditional ethnic convenience stores mixed with classy restaurants and even the odd cheap n cheerful chicken shop. With all the development happening near the tube and the cut through to the 'Fashion Centre' it was an utter disappointment to discover its sad and stale air where there was nobody serving at the Fashion Cafe and what was on display looked like it had seen better days. Annoying as the board on the street caught my eye on the way into the tube and there's a handy cut through into the mini shopping centre. Put something nice in here please. Build it and they will come!

The Brunswick Shopping Centre, just under half a mile from London Euston Station and really close…read moreto Russell Square Underground Station is a small shopping complex in Bloomsbury, London, located between Brunswick Square and Russell Square it is a fairly impressive building with impressive adaptations to make it seem more modern than old. I called in here to grab some food before getting the tube nearby to Wembley Stadium, there was a decent range of shops and places to eat, including brands such as Superdrug, Starbucks and Nandos', and a Waitrose store. Other stores here include Sainsbury's Local, Boots and 3, or if you're feeling hungry there is also the likes of itsu and Gourmet Burger Kitchen, the latter I only found out about after leaving it appeared to be hidden in the centre - shame! The entrance to the centre up a ramp which soon converted part into chairs looked quite dangerous, for me it looked like an accident waiting to happen with no clear lighting or signs to show it, which is why I can't help but wonder how this part of the building passed health and safety, which I can only guess is there down to it being grade II listed. A small selection of shops and places to eat and drink in decent surroundings, slightly quieter than getting something perhaps inside the Euston Station (or the square outside), and perhaps somewhere easy and nearby to go ahead of grabbing a train so it certainly is worthy of a solid three-star rating.

Er... No! Nags Head Market, what is going on? You claim to have over fifty stalls, I arrived on a…read moreSunday (generally market day in London) at 1pm and counted exactly nine stalls open. I felt like I was in an out of season seaside resort. You'll find cheap catalogue knock-off style clothing stalls, a fishmonger, a fruit & veg stall and the occasional 'I am clearing out my house and want you to buy my stuff', kind of stall. Nags Head market is definitely weird, rarely wonderful and with the people who frequent this area of N7, teetering on the precipice of being a ghetto London shopping experience.

An update because all other reviews are kind of out of date…read more I visited on Thursday between 10 and 11 AM, quite some stalls/shops were closed. Some were opening up their shop, to prepare for a lunch crowd I guess? Most of the stalls don't really sell anything I would really go to this market for, like cheap suitcases or so. Some stalls sell some special take away food, like Japanese or Nigerian, have not tried any. I do love the first few shops of this market when entering from Seven Sisters road. The fish shop Holloway Fisheries has a very good offer of fresh fish, good priced, cleaned as you wish by the nice guys. The butcher A&F Butchers looks like a great butcher, with halal meat, beef, lamb and poultry. The vegetables at the greengrocer also look really good and fresh, great shop. I will definitely come back to the three shops above mentioned but are not really thrilled about the rest of the market.

There's also an Iceland, although I'm pretty opposed to this chain it is cheap as chips. There's the Hackney obligatory Percy Ingles, the bakery and a hot nut stand (the shop used to be on Kingsland Road but has now moved in here). There's also clothes shops, a Holland and Barret and acupuncture shop. As if in keeping with the Ridley Rd market, there's also stalls inside selling clothes that Albert Square would be proud of! Then of course there's the infamous Matalan where there was sadly a terrible murder earlier this year. This forced a tightening of security, and you often see police men wandering around. That said, the liveliness of the shopping centre is infectious, and seriously, the Sainsburys is well cheap!
