Plaquemine Lock

Really lovely Regent canal side pub with a Louisiana vibe situated near Angel Station. The live music was really good and the food was fantastic. The beer selection was surprisingly good with a good amount of craft beer options to try. I’ll be back for sure. Only thing to be aware of is the outside drinking license ends at 08:30PM so try get an inside table if you intend to be there around then.

A great Louisiana-style pub by the canal. We went for a Saturday jazz brunch and weren’t disappointed! The food is delicious, especially their green tomatoes and okra-based dishes. Plus, live jazz music makes it even more enjoyable!Food: 5/5

Incredible food, ambience and music would highly recommend! They have live music from 8-10pm on Monday to Saturdays which really lifted the mood. We got the cornbread, seafood boil, shrimp sandwich, pecan pie and beignet’s. The food was all incredible with good portions except for the pecan pie. I would definitely recommend booking in advance to ensure you get a seat!

We found this place randomly and what a good surprise they had a happy hour! Oyster for £1, Mimosa and pints for £4, free corn bread. I highly recommend if you can make it to the happy hour! We order an amazing Jambalaya that came in a steel pot popping hot absolutely gorgeous. Great service and atmosphere, shame we didn’t make it for the live music.

Probably the best roast chicken I’ve had at the New Orleans cajun inspired Sunday roast @plaqueminelock in #islington I rarely order chicken for a roast too many dry tasteless experiences but they had me at dirty rice stuffing! And boy was it the right choice… everything on the plate was delicious and seasoned well. The veggies were a highlight and the dripping roasties crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. The roast chicken was super juicy and that rice was All the other bites and service were fab also dog friendly. Grilled chilli oysters and bacon beignet had us ooh-ing and thanks for finding us a portion of crackling

Outdoor seating is quite popular, best to book in advance. P lock is nestled on the corner a pretty residential road. Although, around the corner from Angel and Shoreditch, you get to enjoy your drinks and food without the drowning out of traffic. Lovely staff, yummy food. Kid-friendliness: Little one enjoyed it Wheelchair accessibility: There is a tiny ramp into the pub

If only I lived around the corner so I could always enjoy happy hour. So much fun! Best value. Nice oysters, spicy bloody marys, HENCH shrimps.Food: 5/5

We just returned back from a road trip to New Orleans/Louisiana and honestly the food at Plaquemine was better than many of the local restaurants at Louisiana The fried green tomatoes, corn bread was awesome ! We also ordered the Gumbo, Jambalaya and étouffée. All were excellent. Spectacular service with nice live Jazz music. Will definitely come back again.

A very unique place in a very fancy area. The food is creole and very tasty and I would personally recommend the shrimp Po boy. Also a seasoned vegetarian said their stuffed pepper was the best they had evrr had.

Such a fun place to hang out with friends and listen to some great music! Food was good portions seemed smaller for the prices, service could have been a more attentive but was otherwise friendly enough. Atmosphere was absolutely amazing. I would come back to try other foods on the menu, it’s definitely a unique enough spot in London to recommend.
