Large pub on the common - gets very busy, so we don't often go here. However, if you're after a real British pub - they don't get more typical than this!

A very large and substantial supermarket! Better value than Waitrose, but often long queues - try to avoid rush hour if you can (after 5pm).

Food Scene

Owned by the Soho House group, this is a handy local restaurant that serves (you guessed it) an array of chicken and egg meals. Quite tasty and good value.

Charlie's favourite brunch in Balham. Get the Cinnamon French Toast and the Sister Special. Arrive before 10am on weekends to guarantee a spot.

Parks & Nature

Nice to walk around on a sunny Sunday - our nearest green space! There's a duck pond and lots of trees, not much else - but you could enjoy a pub lunch and a walk on the common, which is a favourite pastime for many locals!

Our closest cinema! You can get a bus (the 155) from the end of Balham Park Road or a tube to Clapham Common. It is near to lots of nice restaurants including Honest Burger, which is really good.
