Board game geek heaven.

 

It's time to embrace your inner child as Draughts has over a thousand games at your disposal for a whole evening's worth of fun fun fun. From Settlers of Catan to Ticket To Ride, from Jenga to Bananagrams, via Cluedo, Risk, Articulate and everything in between, you have hours upon hours of jumbo entertainment.

Come for the games but also enjoy the craft beers, the delicious food, and the great atmosphere, this is just a place that instantly puts you in a good mood. Get yourself over there and get some fun in your life.

Must play: Current favourite game is Wingspan - a game about bird-collecting; wait wait wait don't go! This is actually an incredibly addictive game that is super-enjoyable while being pretty relaxing and zen at the same time. If you're not a competitive type then this is the game for you as there's no direct gameplay and you can concentrate on your own strategy rather than worrying about what your damn friend is plotting across the table.

Islington is definitely the prime centre of London’s gastropub scene right now, with the likes of The Pig & Butcher and The Drapers Arms leading the way to show the rest of the city how to do pub food. And, after a recent renovation, The Baring is pushing those boundaries again with a gorgeous reinvention serving some fantastic dishes.

Who doesn’t enjoy getting a bit of creativity into their lives? Get those juices flowing at cone8, a lovely little pottery studio in the quieter recesses of Hackney Wick. Some might say it’s the perfect aperitif ahead of an awesome night out across the canal in the busier areas of The Wick.
