Brendan the Navigator, an Irish-influenced gastro pub, will move into 90 Highgate Hill, which formerly housed the Old Crown Inn, and most recently Tourian Lounge restaurant. Named after the sixth century explorer Saint Brendan, the new drinking hole will host live acoustic folk music and plans to open on April 12, when pubs can serve customers outdoors.
