Welcome to Stoke Newington - London's friendliest neighbourhood!

Local businesses care passionately about community and are part of the fabric of what feels like village life here. We’re the friendly faces welcoming you to the area and we’ve created this site to help you discover what’s happening in Stokey, to learn a little of the area’s history and to make it easier for you to shop local.

Our shopping streets are brimming with niche independent stores, our cafes and restaurants cater to every taste and we have two of the capital’s most stunning nature reserves! This area has a fascinating history of radicals and dissenters and, to this day, that free spirit lives on.
