Little Venice

By Tania Kozyr & Katrin Hetman


London's Little Venice is
a tranquil canal area,
home to waterside cafes
and pubs, can be found
just to the north
of Paddington. Positioned
where the Grand Union
and Regent’s canals
meet, this picturesque
neighbourhood is home
to quirky waterside cafes,
cozy pubs and charming
restaurants.
There’s a sense of
calm here that you
just don’t get
anywhere else in the
capital, thanks to
the canals, barges
and nearby parks
creating a tranquil
atmosphere that’s
highly unusual for a
city centre.
It is widely believed that Lord Byron gave the area
its name, as it reminded him of the canal network of
Venice, although the poet Robert Browning claimed
it was he that coined it. The main junction of the
canal, Browning’s Pool, is named after him.
Visitors to Little Venice
can enjoy a boat trip
along the canal or
journey along its
towpath. The trip takes
tourists through
Regent’s Park and
Camden Town,
showing them the
eclectic variety of
shops, bars and
attractions that London
has to offer.
Entertainment
For those wanting to take advantage of the area’s
waterside location, the Floating Boater offers
narrowboats. Passengers can enjoy a traditional English
cream tea as they cruise through Little Venice, heading
up the canal towards London Zoo.
EATING OUT
Molly’s at Little Venice is a good
place to start, as it’s well-renowned
for its breakfast and brunch menus.

The Prince Alfred is another


popular drinking spot in the area
– the perfect place for a
traditional Sunday roast.
