This is a gourmet pub opposite Parliament Hill Fields where you can get great food. Expensive and you generally need to book, but worth it. Mostly meat so not great if you're a vegetarian.

Not a restaurant but a take-away where you can get the best thick-cut chips. Also fish and chips are good, and kebabs. Although not as good as Mono's kebabs down on Kentish Town Rd!

Parks & Nature

One of the best views you can get of London. Walk up the steep hill and enjoy it when you get to the top! Only a 10/15 min walk from the flat. Then you can walk on up the Heath to Kenwood House for your tea.

Arts & Culture

At the top of Hampstead Heath you have the 17th century villa, Kenwood House. Here you can get tea, coffee and something to eat in the Buttery. There is also free entry to the house where there is a remarkable collection of art, including a late Rembrandt self-portrait, Constable, and a Vermeer, amongst others. The film 'Belle' was about the mixed race illegitimate girl who was brought up here by her uncle; a remarkable story.
