The Neighborhood:
Kennington is one of inner London's best kept secrets. It’s an enclave of brick houses and pretty squares containing some perfect examples of Georgian architecture. The most famous is the idyllic Cleaver Square, where locals play boules in the summer with merriment aided by the tiny Prince of Wales pub in the corner.
More information
An annual summer fete here brings the community together over jars of homemade jam and games of Splat the Rat. The genteel atmosphere and recent regeneration now also draw families, while young professionals in all fields love the central location. Kennington remains a diverse area with a mixed population so it still feels full of life. There’s a strong feeling of community spirit, with local theatres and well used green spaces.
Kennington and nearby Elephant and Castle have also become destinations for foodies in London with a hugely diverse selection of restaurants and markets. Here are some suggestions:
The Artworks Elephant created from repurposed shipping containers is full food and drink outlets including the French Bistro which serves delicious French food - think confit duck and plenty of cheese. If this place is busy (given how small it is, it's likely), head to Brasserie Toulouse Lautrec for traditional French dishes. Their steaks are terrific.
Two curry houses, Kennington Tandoori and Gandhi’s, compete for which restaurant has entertained most politicians with displays of photographs of government ministers and prominent MPs.
Courthouse Garden Café in Renfrew Road is attached to the local Buddhist centre and there is a café at Beaconsfield art gallery in Newport Street, close to Hirst’s new gallery.
The Lobster Pot is a long-standing French seafood restaurant on Kennington Lane. Tucked away in Black Prince Road is Zeitgeist at The Jolly Gardeners, a pub specialising in German food and beer and, on Kennington Park Road, The Brown Derby is a welcome new addition to the local pub scene.
Another great place in the neighbourhood is Doost serving great Persian cuisine or for traditional English pub swing by The Old Red Lion for classic pub grub and beers. The Beehive is a bit more of a gastropub with a lovely outside area and great food.
The local foodies in the know head to Mercato Metropolitano on the weekends. This indoor street market is packed full of everything from pizzas to gelato.
The apartment is perfectly located for sight-seeing too; the Imperial War Museum is nearby, the Cinema Museum is worth a trip, and check out the East Street Market. White Bear in Kennington Park Road has a fringe theatre upstairs. There are also two modern art galleries — the Beaonsfield, in a former ragged school in Newport Street, and Gasworks, in Oval Way. The Cinema Museum in Dugard Way is a quirky celebration of all things cinematic. The nearest council-owned swimming pool is the Brixton Recreation Centre.
Getting Around:
Kennington tube is just a 6 minute walk away from the apartment. This connects you to the Northern line and means you can get to iconic London sites in no time at all! London Bridge in just 9 minutes; Waterloo in only 2!
Exploring could hardly be easier.
