The Flask
This 17th-century pub in cosy Highgate Village boasts one of London’s best beer gardens, with lots of flowers, foliage and fairy lights giving it a classic English country garden feel.
Heaters keep it warm in winter.
The Water Poet
The walled beer garden at the back of this Spitalfields boozer is huge, with a covered marquee on the decking and a generous peppering of gas heaters keeping things snug. Plus, they sell Little Creatures.
The Garden Gate
Right next to Hampstead Heath, this cute 19th-century drinking hole has a lovely green garden in which to sip on specialty brews, including offerings from Camden Town, Sierra Nevada and Brooklyn Brewery.
