About The Garden Gate
The Garden Gate is a 19th century pub on South End Road, right on the doorstep of Hampstead Heath and Parliament Hill. It has a long tradition of taking in weary walkers and locals, and that easy, welcoming feel still defines the place.
Inside it is a large, comfortable, multi-roomed venue, furnished with a mix of wooden and upholstered seating, soft lighting and stained glass that gives it a warm, lived-in character. There is space to spread out whether you are a couple or a bigger group.
Its best known asset is the garden, one of the finer beer gardens in this corner of London, with barbecues fired up at weekends when the weather is kind. Combined with home-cooked pub food, it makes the Garden Gate a proper day-out destination in summer.
The pub also offers step-free access at the entrance, and its position beside Hampstead Heath Overground station makes it one of the easiest Heath-side pubs to reach.
