What's your favourite street in London?

[pootle]

Someone drinks in the Griffin...

I've never* been in there actually, but walked past Ravey Street a couple of weekends ago walking from Old Street over to Brick Lane way.


*may not be totally true

 

[rutabowa]

but i like the deli and cafe

i dont mind the cafe, but that delhi represents probably everything i hate most about planet earth c.2009

[marty21]

what's so bad about it?

gentrification ?

I'd say the start of gentrification of Upper Clapton Road would be a KFC

 

[Bungle73]

Some one told me there aren't any roads in london, just lanes, streets and whatnot.

This is obviously bollocks isn't it?

Old Kent road for one.

Any more roads?

It's not Greater London it's the City iirc.

Batman Close, W12

Ravey Street, just for the name!

Will have a decent think about it and come up with a sensible answer shortly...probably somewhere in town that has my favourite mix of clothes shops, pub, eating out spot etc.

Am v fond of the road I live on, for obvious reasons.

Well, it does have Casita and Three Blind Mice...

 

[Xanadu]

I love Marylebone Lane.

 

[behemoth]

Bleeding Heart Yard for cool name and Dickensian atmosphere.

Batman Close, W12

lol! that has to be clearly for the name only coz its a nothing street/close (bar the fact that it borders the best football ground in the city )

 

[upsidedownwalrus]

If it counts as a street, the walk from London Bridge to Waterloo along the side of the Thames would have to be my favourite.

Not sure if it does, though

RILLINGTON PLACE


(JOKE)


Cant beat Sicilian Avenue for style and character .....though Finchley Road around Swiss Cottage is nice and intersting apart from the traffic .....
