We have started our campaign by researching which restaurants and bars on Upper Street serve tap water. The good news is that we discovered that most of them do. We visited over 50 venues and nearly 85% said they served tap water. However only one restuarant – Youngs Chinese restuarant – said they served it automatically. In all the others you would have to ask.
