Does London have a German district!?

Still relatively new to London. I was talking to a guy the other day and he said it's a really neat city once you find all the different places to go, and that he really liked the German quarter.

He was a layer, so he didn't seem crazy... Is he crazy?

I guess that would depend on what you would define as a German Quarter? I would say no there is no German Quarter in London.

And if you define it in a way where the answer is yes, where would it be?

Is there some place where there's a German bar or two? a German school beside a community centre?

Anything remotely German that would also be entertaining?

I'm just trying to figure out why a London Lawyer would really enjoy the "German" part of town.

So what quarters do we have? I know lots of africans live in limberlost, lots of lebanese in white oaks, lots of poles in the pond mills area. Can't think of others offhand,

I once found a 50 pf coin (German) on the street, but I don't think it is worth a quarter.

Plenty of Germans at UWO.
