What on earth is brewing on our cover? Issue 7 out now

The October print issue is out! Once again, it’s free of charge and limited edition – with exclusive content, and some brand new features, including our monthly Top 10 column of what’s hot in the area.

Some key stockists at a glance? The Grafton, Fields Beneath, Owl Bookshop, Harry’s and Phoenicia (central Kentish Town), Future & Found and Soho Hip (Tufnell Park), Southampton Arms and Bull & Last (Highgate Road), Shillibeers (North Road N7), Coffee Jar and Tower 47 (Camden Town, from tomorrow lunchtime), Leyas and DRAF Gallery (Mornington Crescent, from tomorrow lunchtime), Salvino Deli (Brecknock Road, from Friday), and The Fellow and Drink, Shop, Do (King’s Cross, from Friday).This issue is also stocked at pubs and cafes across Primrose Hill and England’s Lane, Belsize Park.

In this issue we document the revival of long-illegal Irish spirit poitín in Kentish Town, under the guidance of Shebeen’s Dave Mulligan. Elsewhere we chat to longstanding high street fishmonger Harry Dasht about leaving Iran, meet the creative director of new fashion brand Parka London, and ponder Sir John Betjeman’s associations with the area.

Slightly further afield (well across the tracks), we give you the low-down on celeb hangout Primrose Hill. Also on a food tip, we roam a couple of delis at opposite ends of the neighbourhood: Ginger and White on England’s Lane, and the gorgeous Salvino artisan store on Brecknock Road.

Here’s the list of most of our regular stockists. To reiterate, those in Camden Town, King’s Cross and Primrose Hill will be stocked from tomorrow (Oct 10).
