Community Cafe at 5 Pancras Square

You'd walk straight past this place if you didn't know it was there—which is entirely the point. Wedged next to the Children's Library in the Camden Council building on Pancras Square, Community Cafe is the kind of spot locals keep quiet about because it's proper good and doesn't need the Instagram queue outside. The menu's vegan but doesn't make a song and dance about it; you're here for the quality of the cooking and the fact they clearly give a toss about what goes on the plate. The space has that relaxed, no-frills vibe of a community hub that actually serves the community, not just Instagram tourists.
