Dotted across the city, these beauties not only bring warmth on the chilliest of evenings, but they also provide a place to chomp on street food, roast marshmallows and catch up with mates. To help you find the best fire pits and campfires in London, we’ve rounded up a few of our favourite hangouts, from cosy pop-ups to winter rooftops.
