7 Best Beer Gardens this August Bank Holiday
The sun is out AND its bank holiday. This can only mean one thing… Beer Gardens!
With so many choices in London, we’ve put together our 7 best beer gardens to help you plan out your weekend.
One for old friends and new…
Grand Union, Brixton
Right in the middle of Wandsworth is the buzzing Grand Union. With lots of outdoor huts to choose from, it’s the perfect place to catch up with friends. Or… if you’re feeling a little more confident, the circular outdoor bar is a great way to mingle. Give Tinder a miss and start looking around you!
One by the river…
The White Cross, Richmond
The White Cross or ‘The Waterman’s Arms’ as it was known back in the 1830’s, is an iconic Richmond pub on the edge of the river Thames. The perfect spot for a cool drink and bite to eat after a long dog walk along the River!
One for the shoppers…
Notch Ldn, Oxford Street
This rooftop popup, hidden away above the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street, is a great escape from the crazy London streets. A fun retreat, complete with a secret entrance and some quirky swings to kick back on. This is one cool spot.
One with a view…
The Mayflower, Rotherhithe Village
If you’re looking for a pub steeped in history with a cracking view, then this is your spot. With a beer garden that backs onto the River Thames, it’s the ideal place to sit back, relax and watch the boats pass by.
One that’s a little different…
The Magic Garden, Battersea
Fancy something a little quirkier with a whole lot of charm? The Magic Garden in Battersea boasts a mish-mash of furniture and a great atmosphere. It may even leave you feeling like you’ve just stepped out of the Mad Hatter’s Tea party!
One with the flower factor…
The Albion, Islington
This beer garden is flourished with flowers (may not be great for hay fever), but the brilliant atmosphere makes up for it.
One for a stay over…
The Rose and Crown, Wimbledon Village
In the mist of Wimbledon village, this hidden-gem of a beer garden is perfect rain or shine. With heaters, good pub grub and a hotel upstairs, you really never have to leave!
