"Getting to hang out in a spacious garden in Highgate Village would usually cost you seven figures and/or a serious charge for breaking and entering. Thankfully, you can head to The Flask’s spacious front garden instead. This ye olde pub was acquired by Fuller’s a while back and they’ve given it a little bit of TLC while retaining its village-y interior. The food is pleasant gastropub stuff—think sizable and well-fried fish and chips—and that’s all you really need if you’re planning to pitch up at this suntrap for the day." - jake missing, daisy meager, heidi lauth beasley
