Best Fun Restaurants in Hornsey

We love the Parakeet. It never disappoints. We’ve been a handful of times and have also gone to two quiz nights which were loads of fun. The staff on the floor are incredible and everyone has so much heart and passion for what they do. Overall, I would highly recommend with one caveat. For this particular visit I had some trouble with the very unpleasant woman in charge of group bookings. I reached out months in advance as we were a large party. She was very unresponsive and dismissive so I would recommend for a larger group. Not worth the stress and aggravation.

Absolutely fantastic on every count. The service, the atmosphere, and importantly, the food. Could not fault it at all. Wanted a great meaty restaurant to take my vegetable hating husband to on his birthday. Someone at work had recommended Blacklock so I booked it. We’ve been to Hawksmoor a few times and loved it, so our expectations were high and it did not disappoint. Staff were amazing from the moment we arrived. Very friendly, helpful and knowledgeable. Attentive to exactly the right level. Food was sensational. We had the Prime Rib (700g) and a bacon chop, plus fries. So good. Deserts were also lovely- bread and butter pudding and 698142 cheese cake both fabulous. We then had a tipple at the bar on the way out. All excellent and very reasonably priced. We will definitely be back.

I ate from set menu which was excellent value, delicious food and service. A good honest Italian restaurant, everything was perfect. Great atmosphere, the restaurant was full but not noisy, so able to have conversation without shouting.

Loved the experience but meal was a bit ruined by adding heavily fishy broccoli as a side to a beef cheek dish. We didn’t realise the side came with the fishy topping. :( Thought the portions of main were small for price point. Charming staff and really glad we visited! Thanks!

Loved the music, lightening, the food. Wish the was a lounge to dance to the music would have been perfect.
