Eat at the Park Life Cafe

Your author had a pleasant lunch at the cafe beside Whittington Park and the Whittington Park Community Centre in Islington last weekend. From the sign, it appeared that the cafe is called 'Park Life', but this may just be decorative.


The staff were friendly and helpful, and the portions were reasonably priced and ample, so there are no complaints here. Your author understands the community café is a social enterprise, established fairly recently by the Whittington Park Community Association, and it appears to be going very well.

The cafe is situated on Rupert Road in Islington, and is one of the associations many projects, which include an over 60’s day centre, a charity shop, a holiday play scheme and a hall, available to hire. For more, see http://www.wpca-london.org/
