When Albert Uderzo drew a timeless English pub for a scene in Asterix in Britain, it looked a lot like this traditional spot on Highgate Hill: wooden beams, fireplaces, bottle-glass windows and a labyrinth of snug rooms.
Should you find it, the little bar in one corner serves a gently unusual range of beers, which has improved since Fuller’s took over the pub in 2009: you might find the likes of Butcombe Bitter, Hydes Original, Adnams and Fuller’s own Honey Dew on tap, with such Belgian brews as Vedett and Duvel available by the bottle.
Single malts are another feature, though you might prefer something chilled from the wine list if you’re taking to the side terrace in summer.
