Ouvert en 2011, le Brookmans est devenu une plaque tournante pour les centres d'activités de la région autour du bar de l'île et qui se réjouit de vous servir une bonne tasse de café, une pinte convenable de bière ou un verre de champagne. Asseyez-vous au bar face à la porte, si vous voulez voir et être vus, ou trouvez un coin confortable et installez-vous dans l'un des fauteuils moelleux. Chaleureux, le restaurant est accueillant avec ses sièges revêtus de cuir vert anglais et ses abat-jours en soie faits à la main. Sur les murs, des affiches historiques de l'époque de Metroland sont accrochées, quand Brookmans Park a été construite, comme faisant partie du mouvement des jardins de banlieue extrêmement optimiste.
