Arancini Brothers

Love this place — great ambience, great food and the staff are lovely. Always been welcoming when coming with children and always take their recommendations. They are quite pricy £7 plus for a wrap if you sit in but the food is pretty amazing! Best risotto balls around. They also have a garden out the back with a fair few tables which is nice on a sunny day. The place is always busy but you can get a table/​seat. Good variety of food on the menu with some vegan options! You must visit

Arancini Brothers in Kentish Town is your restaurant of choice for arancini and good background music. Furthermore, they also do nice wraps and muffins.
On a Sunday evening, I was going go a gig near Hampstead Heath and decided to stop at Arancini Brothers in Kentish Town for dinner.
I think I had heard of them before, and I probably had eaten their food at some street food market. Maybe not, in any case, their shop in Kentish Town is worth a visit.
When I walked in, it was not very busy and I could easily find a table. The music they played immediately struck a chord with me. I really enjoyed listening to nineties rock music like «Knocking on Heaven’s Door» by Guns N’ Roses or all-​time classic «House of the Rising Sun». Not only quirky and funny, but also actually good music.
After the background sound already won me over, I basically had to like the food. Well, as it turns out, the food was not just a nice bonus to the soundtrack, they cook as skillfully as they curate the playlist. I had a great chicken wrap and absolutely lovely and delicious arancini. After eating my first portion of arancini, I think I ordered a second one, only because they were so good.
No meal is complete without a dessert, and it would be a shame to skip puddings at Arancini Brothers, because my Oreo muffin was pretty nice and tasty.
They also have some of the lesser-​known San Pellegrino flavours, such as orange and pomegranate. A refreshing and interesting drink.
The Arancini Brothers restaurant is an excellent, no-​frills place for lunch, dinner or just a snack in between. The staff are very friendly and the food is simply delicious.

One of my fav places in Kentish for coffee and lunch. Coffee is good but nothing amazing but the food is special. They offer health conscious Sicilian food with a modern twist. The risotto and Ragu balls are my personal favourite.
Breakfast menu looks limited and wouldn’t recommend for dinner as again menu looks limited but for a good lunch defiantly.
Tried to get here for lunch today but the place was rammed.

One of my new year’s resolution is to walk more and one of the side effects of this is that I get to discover new places that I would «tubing» not notice. This place is one of them: one evening I was walking from Camden Town towards Archway when I got distracted by this trendy-​looking place…
And by trendy I mean that it is decorated in the shabby look, where you decorate a place in a way so that it looks as if it’s been lived in forever (Byron in Angel is a good example for this). However, here it really feels like this space was occupied by a worker’s café right before and they haven’t done much to update it… which makes it charming.
I was here on a Sunday late morning and the place was packed with people eating breakfast. I, on the other hand, wanted to try out their signature dish — the arancinis (fried rice balls). They came on a bed of delicious salad and topped with some creamy mayonaise… not the most healthy dish in the world, but surely full of flavours.

What a find! These guys are the BEST at making Arancini! Seriously good flavours and a menu that includes deliciously soft muffins with fresh mushrooms and tomatoes for breakfast, to Arancini and slow roast chicken tortilla wraps (you have to try this!!) for lunch, to the squiggiest brownies and crumbliest cookies! And of course, creamy new zealand flat whites, all at incredibly reasonable prices. The mood is relaxed, the waiting staff are friendly and this place has an air of freshness, homliness and wholesomeness! Not to be missed!
