We would wager that most of you have had quite enough of the election right now – so rest assured our new print issue is refreshingly 100% politics-free.

What we are doing this month is celebrating a local thoroughfare that sometimes gets overlooked in the rush to embrace the new.

Royal College Street is an ancient stretch that links King’s Cross with Kentish Town, and is the focus of a four page cover story, with its classic London boozers, the legendary Castle’s pie and mash, and new arrivals like organic pizza and contemporary art. We also hear a heartwarming tale from Lemongrass owner Thomas Tan.

Elsewhere we find out what it was really like to grow up above the old Bull and Gate in the eighties and nineties, take cocktail-making tips from drinks columnist Alice Lascelles, and check out why Delicious by Franco is still packing them in despite competition from all the new openings in Kentish Town.


LOCAL ADVERTISING


Kentishtowner in print is now available FREE at key pubs, bars, shops and cafes in six London postcodes: NW1, N6, N7, NW5, N19, and NW3 (see list below).

And if you’re missing Gasholder on the reverse side, that’s because our King’s Cross title has grown up and become a standalone publication in its own right. It’s only a short hop down to N1C to pick up a free copy though. Here’s where you can find a free copy of Gasholder when it’s published next Friday (May 15).
