La Divina has been part of Upper Street since 2009. What began as a family-run neighbourhood restaurant has become a familiar meeting place for local residents, theatre-goers, Arsenal supporters and visitors discovering Angel. Through the years, we have shared everyday lunches, dinners before the curtain, birthdays and countless evenings around the table.
Our approach is still simple: fresh ingredients, delicious pasta, hand-stretched Romana-style pizza, grills, salads and homemade desserts, served with warm and attentive hospitality. Whether you are joining us for a quick lunch or gathering everyone for a celebration, we want La Divina to feel relaxed, welcoming and easy to return to.
Comforting Italian favourites, lively tables and the warm Upper Street atmosphere our guests return for.
Dine with us on Upper Street or order ahead and collect your La Divina favourites.
