The Meadows is one of our absolute favourite places to head off on an autumnal walk in the city. It is brilliant to see the seasons change as you walk along its leafy paths.
We visited in early autumn when there’s still a great mix of green amongst the burgeoning orange and brown leaves. By the end of the month, The Meadows will be on fire with autumn.
With plenty of coffee spots nearby, there are lots of options to pick up a hot drink for your walk to keep you warm. But for our money, there’s absolutely only one winner for where you should pick up a hot drink. You’ll need to keep scrolling to find out where though.
