Islington London
Our Showroom is located on Danbury Street, Islington. A calm, quiet street set back from the hustle and bustle of Angel. Just a stones throw away are some wonderful places to eat, drink and take a scenic walk. When visiting our showroom for your bridal appointment or fitting we love to recommend some of our favourite places to enjoy a morning, afternoon or day in our local area.
Whether you're celebrating finding your dress with family and friends or taking a moment to unwind during your wedding planning process, here are some of our favourite Islington spots.
Pophams Bakery
Pophams Bakery is a huge favourite with the AH team, whenever we have an AH Team Birthday Celebration we head straight here. Just a 5 minute walk from our studio on Prebend Street you will find the most delicious bakes, we highly recommend the Bacon & Maple or Marmite, Schlossberger & Spring Onion! The perfect spot to enjoy in the morning or at lunchtime. They have seating indoors and outside so you can enjoy throughout the year, no matter the weather.
Regent's Canal
If the weather is looking good, a walk along Regent's Canal is such a lovely way to travel to or from our showroom. With easy access straight onto Danbury Street you can enjoy a stroll with a coffee, talking in the waterways, nature and canal boats. A great way to see another side of Islington and explore our local area.

Noci
One of our favourite evening spots in Islington is Noci. Just a few minutes from our showroom you will find this beautiful restaurant serving up some of the most delicious pasta, Sicilian street food inspired snacks and delightful cocktails.
Some of our favourites dishes are the brown butter cacio e pepe, porcini & shimeji mushroom tagliatelle and the house Focaccia. Don't forget to try the Yuzu & Rhubarb Spritz or the non-alcoholic Peach Spritz - perfectly refreshing when paired with the indulgent pasta dishes. We'd recommend to book in advance, especially if visiting on a Friday/Saturday.
