Where the DJs dine

Ben Sloan|Metro10 April 2012

Anyone who's a regular on the London Indie scene cannot have failed to have witnessed at least one DJ set by the Queens of Noize in the past year. Here they pop in to share all about the best places to grab a kebab, indulge in a roast or drink to the wee hours.

Marathon Kebab House, 87 Chalk Farm Road NW1. Tel: 020 7485 3814. Tube: Chalk Farm

T: It's basically a kebab house but they've got Daniel playing rock 'n' roll into the early hours. And you can drink until three. We used to hang out there more because the Barfly used to shut earlier, but it is a bit of an institution for us.

Cottons, 55 Chalk Farm Road NW1. Tel: 020 7485 8388. Tube: Chalk Farm

T: It's a piece of the Caribbean in rainy Camden. The food is delicious and they have really great cocktails.

The Hollybush, 22 Holly Mount NW3. Tel: 020 7435 2892. Tube: Hampstead

M: Lovely prawns and mayo and a very good bread and butter pudding. Between 4pm and 6pm it's all Hampstead locals, older actors in green waxed jackets, then at 7pm it changes to the hipper end of Hampstead. I go after I've been to the Everyman cinema.

The Vine, 86 Highgate Road NW5. Tel: 020 7209 0038. Tube: Kentish Town

M: I eat here almost every other day. It's a posh pub that does really brilliant food. I always have the scallops to start, lamb shank or their homemade beefburgers, and they do the best vanilla br°lèe. Simple menu but really good.

Lemonia, 89 Regent's Park Road NW1. Tel: 020 7586 7454. Tube: Chalk Farm M:
It's a Greek place. The first time I went here was with Seymour Stein, who discovered the Ramones and Alan McGee. Print that, that was a total cool one. They do really good fried calamari.

  • Queens Of Noize's first birthday is tomorrow night at Barfly Camden.
