Filming in key locations in London contributed to the urban crime aesthetic of MobLand. Several streets and districts of London were featured in the series. One of London's most prominent filming sites is the Isle of Dogs, located in the East of the city. The island is surrounded by the River Thames on three sides.

The high-rise buildings and the dockland history of the Isle of Dogs offered a contrasting landscape. The island has served as the primary location for numerous popular movies such as Batman Begins and 28 Weeks Later. It was also the inspiration for Wes Anderson's animated movie, Isle of Dogs.
