5 Great Things To Eat On Holloway Road - London - The Infatuation

"One of the best things about Holloway Road (of which there are many) is that it caters to all types of people, from those looking for a cheap pint at The Coronet, to Arsenal fans wanting a pre or post-match Neapolitan pizza. For vegans and vegetarians, it’s particularly good, and Keren View should be top of your list. The Eritrean spot has been around for years and after a portion of injera and a choice of dishes with it - we recommend dnish (stewed potato and peppers with chilli) and brsen (stewed brown lentils with kale) for sure - you’ll understand why. Or you can always grab a little sweet something from Cookies & Scream, a great little vegan and gluten-free bakery. Otherwise if you’re willing to turn a corner onto the Seven Sisters Road, then Mao Chow have a spot in Nag’s Head Market." - jake missing

Such a cozy little place! If I could give service 6 stars, I would! The host was so lovely and sweet, I really enjoyed conversing with her. Food was so hearty, and there was plenty of vegan options. The dishes taste incredibly fresh too.

I came here one day randomly almost five years ago. And year after year I just find myself always coming back. It is a vegan Eritrean restaurant ran by a lovely lady from who cooks the food and serves herself. Price is affordable and the service is immaculate. 100% recommend. 201 Holloway Rd, London N7 8DJ

Don't miss this fantastic restaurant in Highbury - an Eritrean vegan place. Family owned and operated, this authentic spot serves up incredible food (including excellent options for sharing) prepared by the lovely owner herself. In a time when it's not always easy to find small restaurants like these serving traditional food, with incredible hospitality and humility, Keren View is an absolute gem!

Went in and the place was just us! We had fantastic genuine service that wasn’t light speed but also not rushed, very attentive and authentic. Nice Eritrean beer and food! Well spiced and seasoned and left us filled nicely. A great first experience Will be back with more people for sure.

incredible little place run by what seems to be one woman! place wasn't busy at 8pm on a Friday night, but food was great - cheap but proper vegan comfort food (lentils, etc) with lots of carbs to boot (rice, pitta, injera). had never had Eritrean food before so this was lovely. huge props to the owner as she seems to be running the entire place on her own!

Such a lovely restaurant! Absolutely gorgeous interior (fairy lights, plants, gorgeous wooden seating and cushions) and such a kind woman running the restaurant. The food was so warming (and all vegan!) and I would particularly recommend the cocoa drink with ginger :)

Really special food. This restaurant serve real vegan food from Eritrea. We past by and we wanted to try and it was amazing. Special offer if you share the food and suggest to get the local bread (injera). Really recommend and the lady that served was fantastic. I wanted to to take a picture of the food, but was too late. Price cheap and no service charge. Cash or card is accepted. Gluten-free is possible.
