Win, loss, or draw—you’ll find some Arsenal fans looking for satisfaction around The Tastebox’s smoking drum. The Caribbean takeaway spot at the top of Gillespie Road makes some of north London’s smokiest jerk and it’s an excellent meal pre or post match, or any day of the week for that matter. Oxtail stew and curry chicken are always nourishing boxes to get into and, if you’re lucky, you might be able to grab one of the seats outside. More often than not they’re for regulars though—so you might want to put some hours in first.
