Local guide
About Balham
Balham might not be smack bang in the centre of London but it's got charm aplenty and has recently become something of a south London hotspot. Offering a vibrant nightlife scene with cocktail bars, old-school pubs, and brunch spots (for those partial to a 'bottomless'), Balham is a great place to spend your city nights. Open green spaces make this an incredibly popular area for affluent young families to enjoy...

Take a stroll down to one of London’s largest (but lesser-known) green spaces. Visit the exotic animals at Battersea Children's Zoo & rent a boat for a paddle around the pretty lake.
Go to an exhibition at Tate Britain
Discover one of the largest British art collections in the world in this beautiful building. Get involved with light and shade at the Turner Wing.
Enjoy British Tradition at The Avalon Pub
With a wonderful and generous garden, The Avalon is the perfect stage for a pint and a British Sunday roast.
Start your day at The Georgian
Nope, this local cafe has nothing to do with the U.S. State of Georgia. It represents in fact a Country at the crossroads of Western Asia and Eastern Europe famous for their hospitality and warmth.
Grab dinner and a movie at The Exhibit
An all day drinking and eating venue that also doubles up as a boutique cinema. Cinema-only tickets are available but it’s definitely worth splashing out for the Dinner & A Movie deal.
Be bowled over at Balham Bowls Club
The Balham Bowls Club (or BBC to the locals) is a pub set in the former bowling club. Cozy rooms, craft fairs, pub quizzes, it’s a social club and drinkery of the highest order.
Get your morning coffee at Brickwood
The Aussie coffeehouse franchise is a favourite of SW flat white lovers, but it’s their award winning brunch that steals the show. Try the toasted brioche with caramelised banana and maple bacon.
