"At Towpath, you’ll likely have to wait for a seat alongside other seasoned table grabbers in their best linen fits, but it’s worth it. This charming spot along the Regent's Canal is pretty much entirely outside and makes a strong case for being one of London's most dopamine-inducing spots. Come on a crisp, sunny day and nab a seat (alongside a plate of tomatoes on toast), or stop by for a midweek meal if you don’t fancy tackling the weekend brunch hours, for radishes and taramasalata followed by hearty, herby lamb meatballs with couscous. Just know that it closes from early November until spring." - jake missing, sinead cranna, daisy meager
