Islington’s beer gardens are where laid-back afternoons turn into lively evenings. From classic pub courtyards with long communal tables to tucked-away terraces perfect for an intimate pint, there’s a place for every kind of drinker. Some serve craft ales straight from local breweries, others fire up the BBQ when the sun’s out, and a few even have heaters for when the British weather doesn’t play nice. The best spots around Angel and Clerkenwell get packed early on weekends, so book ahead if you want a space for your group!
The cost of beer gardens averages around £2500 minimum spend per event. The final price will depend on location, size, amenities, and demand. Some venues also offer additional packages that include catering, AV equipment, or additional services. Take a look at the usual price ranges in Islington, based on Tagvenue data from June 2026:
