CRICKLEWOOD AREA GUIDE, NW2

Cricklewood offers really excellent transport links into Central London with the Jubilee line, overland and bus routes. The high street, or Cricklewood Broadway, is the main thoroughfare from London to the motorway leading north. As a result, the Broadway lacks a certain something and residents of the local area are more inclined to venture to Brent Cross Shopping Centre or Hampstead for a stroll around the shops. There are a couple of decent pubs and bars in the area, notably the Crown, the Queensbury and King Sitric. The real appeal to Cricklewood, other than the amazing transport links, is the standard of acccommodation that's available at relatively affordable prices for zone 2. Do not overlook Cricklewood when considering where to live.
