The super trendy hipster pub in North London owned by Rick Astley where you might just spot him behi
Trendy pubs and bars aren't hard to find in North London, but this one's owned by a very famous singer. Rick Astley, yes, Never Gonna Give You Up Rick Astley, has a little watering-hole right by Angel.
Mikkeller Brewpub in Exmouth Market is a little hipster spot loved for its beer. Rick opened the bar with Mikkel Borg Bjergsø in 2018.
Mikeller is a world-renowned Copenhagen based craft brewery and Danish CEO Mikkel met his childhood-idol Rick in 2015. The pair collaborated on a beer together, Astley’s Northern Hop Lager, and this led to them opening Mikkeler's first UK bar together.
On the site, Rick says: "I met Mikkel back in 2015 – through his enthusiasm and passion for real quality, I have fallen back in love with beer. London is a great city, but it needs a Mikkeller bar and it is really exciting to be part of creating Mikkeller’s first bar in the UK with Mikkel and his fantastic team. I know we are going to have a lot of fun and drink some great beer."
The Exmouth Market spot has an impressive beer menu of beers brewed both in Cophenhagen and at the Brewpub itself. You can even order 1/3 pints from as little as £1.70 so you can taste more of them.
Mikkeller Brewpub's cheapest pint is priced at £5 for a shandy and there's also a Market Helles pint for £6.20 and a Live Simply pale ale for £6.70.
And it's not just beer - they also serve a range of wine, spirits and cocktails with the cheapest cocktail at £7 and most expensive at £12.50. The Exmouth Market pub also serves up bites that are perfecting for enjoying with a pint, including burgers for around £13.50.

Another visitor wrote: "Mikkeller has in recent years become my go-to watering hole in Exmouth Market. The beer selection is top-notch (though on the pricier side). The decor is spare, but with touches of hygge like lit candles. The sensibility is tasteful but relaxed, the crowd cool but not egregiously young."
One even said: "Bloody love this place - been back time and time again… mixture of super friendly staff, great atmosphere and prob the best beer selection I’ve found in London.."
