Top Three Favourites: 30 August
This week with the sun still shining Twenty Something London bring you their top riverside bars and lunch spots. From canal side views to home-made brews soak up the summer sun with London's best independents.
Riverside Bars
Kings Cross Filling Station, King Cross
Walking along Goods Way, just behind Kings Cross station you'll find a sheet of strong looking corrugated iron that keeps a surprise behind its walls - the perfect summertime drinking spot right by the canal. Adjacent to the sophisticated Shrimpy's restaurant, KXFS is where you want to head to for a casual drink in a very unique location. With Prosecco on tap and a fine selection of beers summer couldn't be more fun.
Lunch Spots
The Waterway, Warwick Avenue
Another off the beaten track restaurant-cum-bar, The Waterway is home to North West London locals in search of a good time. With an inviting and sunken beer garden that gets sun throughout the day and a seasonally changing European menu, walking down the back streets of Warwick Avenue to find this hidden gem is a very nice surprise.
Canal side views
Crate Brewery, Hackney Wick
Canal surroundings and hand-crafted beers are what you'll find at the intimate Crate Brewery just a few minutes walk away from the top end of Victoria Park. When in the East End come here to find yourself perching by the River Lee, with stone baked pizza in one hand and a homemade brew in the other. Life is good!
