A historic, leafy Highgate gastropub boasting top-tier Sunday roasts, an exceptional wine list, and a bustling marquee perfect for sunny afternoons.
Ordering Strategy
Book well in advance for Sunday lunch, or arrive early on sunny days to secure an unbookable garden table. Always ask about the award-winning wine list.
What to order
Pastel de choclo
The editor's essential must-order pick, offering a comforting and uniquely delicious twist despite the traditional British setting.
Sunday Roast
Consistently rated as one of London's best, featuring massive Yorkshire puddings and options like Aberdeen Angus rib-eye or confit Cornish lamb shoulder.
Cheeseburger
An absolute wedge of a super-tender patty hidden behind a melted cheese curtain and smothered in a sweet, subtly spicy burger sauce.
