The best local restaurant in London has been crowned by the Good Food Guide

Congratulations to Ida in Queen's Park, which has been named the Best Local restaurant in London by the Good Food Guide. This is the 15th year of the GFG's Best Local Restaurants campaign, which sees the publication celebrate 100 cosy neighbourhood spots across the UK. According to the Good Food Guide, the list heralds 'wine bars serving sensational small plates, neighbourhood bistros breathing life into faded seaside towns, and the cherished family-run gems where you can enjoy a great meal for under £20'. The list is broken down into areas and Ida, a family-run Italian on Kilburn Lane, came up top in London. However, the overall number one was Malaysian pub residency Lucky Lychee in Winchester, which also topped the South East list. Ida opened in 2007, taking over a Grade II listed corner shop site. It is run by husband and wife, Avi and Simonetta, alongside their three children. 'The dream was to recreate the kind of simple, home-cooked Italian food you might eat at the house of your favourite aunt,' they say. The other London restaurants given the nod in the list included Time Out's current best restaurant in London, Miga in Hackney, as well as Clapton's Mambow, which topped our best restaurants list in 2024.
