Johnny Boy’s opened on 4 July 2026 at 3 Northwold Road, N16, LA native Julian Denis bringing the Facing Heaven flavour bombs to a tangerine-counter diner in Stoke Newington. Hot Dinners put it on Hot Right Now in August; olive magazine sat the same booths among 2026’s best new London restaurants.
The little-known fact is the breakfast: weekend burritos and bottomless filter coffee sit beside dinner tacos, a crab tostada and a chicken plate with herb potato salad and a Hawaiian roll, so the room is a diner rather than a supper club. Dinner Wednesday to Sunday from 17:30; bookings recommended, walk-ins taken.
@eatatjohnnyboys is the live camera. The patty melt is why you go; Northwold Road is why it feels like London.
