This past weekend, I had a nice walk beginning in Little Venice and ending atop Primrose Hill. Little Venice is a wonderful, somewhat hidden gem in London. Closest tube stops are Warwick Avenue or Royal Oak. When you get to the canal, reminiscent of Amsterdam or Bruges, it's worth stopping at either the Waterway or the Summerhouse - owned by the same group. Both are right on the canal and have good food. On this occasion, we sat in the garden of the Waterway for a pint of Hoegaarden and some sun.

We then sauntered up to its very close sister, pop-up restaurant The Summerhouse (
60 Blomfield Road, Maida Vale, W9 2PD)
Despite some reviews saying it had simply "decent" food - we really enjoyed our grilled swordfish and sweet potato fries - service was nice and relaxed too.
From there, we continued walking along the canal, taking in the beautiful and peaceful scenery.
While you can walk all the way to Camden Town, we stopped off at Primrose Hill - grabbing some cupcakes from a little market and a bottle of cold Prosecco to enjoy with the view.
A perfect Sunday!
