About

La Pasta at 17-19 Highbury Corner, N5 1RA is on 020 7609 6792 and was rated 2 out of 5 for food hygiene on 16 April 2026. That is the lowest on its parade bar one. It is an Italian restaurant in the parade beside Highbury & Islington station, doing pizza and pasta made on the premises, eat in or take away, with tea and coffee. Listings differ on the hours: most give roughly 9am to late Monday to Saturday and a shorter Sunday, so ring before travelling. On the hygiene rating, Islington Council's inspection scored hygiene 10, confidence in management 10 and structure 15, which is the highest of the three and the single component dragging the rating down. Points work the other way round to the rating, so the lower the score the better. A 2 means improvement necessary; it is not a closure and carries no ban on trading, and it is the rating the business is expected to improve on at the next unannounced visit. For context on the same parade, The Garage, Waitrose, Black Sheep Coffee and Coffee Republic all hold 5s, Ristorante Trevi at 16-18 holds a 4, and only Temptations at 25-27, on a 1, sits lower than La Pasta. Any new result appears on the Food Standards Agency register at ratings.food.gov.uk, FHRS ID 416028.
