North London Coffee Posse - September 2010, Hampstead, London
4 September 2010: North London Coffee Posse - September 2010
Come along and meet new people, chat with old friends and just chill. We'll be at Kenwood House in the afternoon until 16:00 before moving on to the Flask pub in Hampstead by 17:30.
OUTeverywhere is not just an online community where everything happens in pixels. You can also get OUT there and meet other OUTers and our coffee posse is the ideal way to do so. The North London Coffee Posse is normally held on the first or second Saturday of the month, but this month it is the third Saturday.
The first half of the event is the "coffee" part at Kenwood House where we'll chill until at least 16:00.
If the weather is good we'll be round the back of Kenwood House in the café garden, sitting near the colonnade walkway. Please be aware that we will try to be in the Old Kitchen if we decide to sit inside; this is through the same entrance as the disabled toilet (http://photo.outeverywhere.com/71/34/g713475.jpg). We won't be sitting in the other seating area in the Brew House café unless the Old Kitchen is full or closed for a function.
The Brew House serves hot and cold food and drinks with china crockery. There is also a smaller café to the left, the Steward's Room, which is slightly cheaper and serves a smaller choice of soup, sandwiches, cakes, drinks and ice cream.
When we're ready to move on, we normally walk across Hampstead Heath which takes about half an hour. An alternative is to take the 210 bus to Jack Straw's Castle then the 268 to Hampstead High Street.
We aim to be at the the Flask pub in Hampstead (not the pub of the same name in Highgate), by 17:30 for the second half of the event with muchos alcohol. The Flask serves food so we can have supper there. Sometimes we decide to eat or drink elsewhere, but if so we won't leave before 18:30.
There is a good map of Hampstead Heath at http://www.cityoflondon.gov.uk/NR/rdonlyres/D2C5A222-1931-4146-BA25-2F728E953C8B/0/OS_HH_Diarymapsection.pdf
TRAVEL INFORMATION: Transport for London has a journey planner at http://journeyplanner.tfl.gov.uk/ for which Kenwood House is recognised as a "place of interest". Visit http://www.tfl.gov.uk/tfl/livetravelnews/ for up-to-date travel information on the day of the event.
TUBE: The nearest tube station for Kenwood House is Highgate which is on the Northern Line and is about 20 minutes' walk away (http://www.thetube.com). Hampstead and Golders Green, also both on the Northern Line, are about half an hour's walk. The nearest tube station for the King William is Hampstead.
WALKING FROM HIGHGATE STATION TO KENWOOD HOUSE: At Highgate station take the escalator up to Archway Road; this is the rightmost exit just after the ticket barriers. Turn right and take the third road on the left, Church Road. At the crossroads, continue straight on into View Road. At the end, turn right then take the next left, Stormont Road. At the end turn right on to Hampstead Lane and Kenwood House will be on the left.
WALKING FROM HAMPSTEAD STATION TO KENWOOD HOUSE: Turn right out of the station on to Heath Street. Walk up the hill until you reach the top and crossroads with traffic lights, after about half a mile. Go straight across, passing a pond to your left. Shortly afterwards where the road forks at Jack Straw's Castle, take Spaniards Road to the right. Continue for about a mile, passing the Spaniards Inn to your left, until you reach the entrance to the car park for Kenwood House on your right. Go though the gate and follow the track leading down to the house.
BUSES: The 210 bus stops outside Kenwood House. You can catch it from Golders Green station towards Finsbury Park station, or from Archway or Finsbury Park stations towards Brent Cross Shopping Centre. Other routes nearby include 210, 214 and 271. Buses on routes 46 and 268 stop in Hampstead.
PARKING: There is unrestricted parking available on Hampstead Lane. Kenwood has a pay and display car park. Parking is restricted on Hampstead High Street but there is unrestricted parking within walking distance. Will Young will be playing at Kenwood in the evening so it's likely that parking will be a problem there.
