Megan's Islington

We enjoyed an evening at Megan's in July during happy hour. The bellini and elderflower fizz were cold and refreshing. Our food was amazing! Everything was fresh and delicious!

We found this place as a group of 12 people, on a Friday night, without a reservation! Mission impossible to find space, yet this place was practically empty. I thought it was cause it's tucked away from the main street. Staff was nice, atmosphere is great, just to my taste in a little shabby shick kind of way. I ordered a Shakshuka lamb, which I found a bit salty but edible, by all means quite a small portion. The lamb was probably one chunk of meat, shredded to spread a bit around the middle of the tray, the sauce covered the rest, spreaded thinly across the metal tray it was served in. The flatbread was a bit soggy. I was still hungry and I ordered some sweet potatoes before they closed the kitchen. I thought I made a bad choice as other had ordered kebabs, which might have been more substantial. Then, when we got out, one of us (who ordered a chicken salad) was so hungry that we literally had to go to Chipotle to get a burrito!!! 🤣 To be fair, maybe we were unlucky, as the rest of us were happy with their food. In summary, be prepared to order 2 dishes at just under £20 each, which will bring your bill to £40 just for the food. To the owners, I would say double the portions and halve the salt!

An enjoyable @megansrestaurants Megan's brunch with the family - we enjoyed: spiced chicken grill, Megan's brunch grill, and peri peri chilli chicken shakshuka (with garlic yoghurt and DF version with coconut yoghurt); but our favourites were our desserts: heavenly cookie dough skillet cookie with nutella molten centre and ice cream ( vanilla ice-cream and DF coconut ice-cream), and gorgeous orange + almond cake and chocolate brownie. You must save space for their amazing desserts - especially their cookie dough is the best we've eaten!
