Holloway
Map 73
Holloway is best known for its women’s prison and not much else. To the west of Holloway Road it feels a bit like a sprawling backyard to gentrified Camden, Islington, and King’s Cross. Nevertheless, bars like The Lord Stanley and Shillibeer’s have gone all gastro, so it doesn’t quite have the gritty vibe that it once had.
