The City of London Corporation, which manages green spaces as a registered charity, announced on 19 December the four cafés at Queen’s Park, Golders Hill Park, Parliament Hill Lido and Parliament Hill Fields would be run by the chain Daisy Green.

The fifth, in Highgate Wood, is yet to be announced.

A previous retendering process in 2016 had led to the leases being awarded to Belugo, though the chain later backed out.

The corporation said the applications to run the cafés were reviewed with “several factors in mind, including the concept, menu and food offer and community and social value, rather than purely for income”, the Local Democracy Reporting Service said.

All existing operators were invited to submit their own proposals.
