The Freemasons Arms, Hampstead

School dinner food at gastropub prices. The spit roast chicken came served cold, the side-order of mixed vegetables consisted of a plate of burnt carrots. When we asked where the chips were we were told that they were still in the frier, however, this didn't stop them from serving the other dishes beforehand when they were already stone cold.

If you can put up with the boorish service and the crowds on a sunny day I guess this place is worth visiting for a drink as it is well located on the edge of Hampstead Heath. But don't come expecting fine dining.
