The Alpaca

The Alpaca is an independent pub at 84-86 Essex Road, London N1 8LU. The website says it opened in March 2020, starting out serving the local area with hot meals, ready-made cocktails and wine for takeaway, and has since become a friendly local.

Food includes burgers, fish from the fishmongers next door and vegan dishes. Sunday roasts are cooked from scratch, and the sharing roast platters are aimed at groups. The drinks list covers beers, cocktails, wines and non-alcoholic options, and the pub stocks alcohol-free beers and spirits. Tables can be booked through the website, and the FAQ says it offers dishes without gluten-containing ingredients, with allergen information on request.

The Alpaca's FAQ says "The Alpaca is a dog-friendly pub in Islington" and that it provides dog treats, water bowls and blankets. It recommends not bringing dogs after 9pm on busy Fridays and Saturdays. The nearest station is Essex Road, about 4 minutes on foot, then Angel at around 10 and Highbury and Islington at around 12.
