Food Scene

This is a great pub, right in the middle of the Common. It's great in summer to sit outside in the green space, and in winter you can cosy up next to the fire.

This is THE place to go to for steak in the area. All Argentinian meat, cooked right before your eyes on the open grill. If you're a carnivore, you will love this place as much as I do.

This is my "local" and a great, back-street pub with good beers on tap and great food. The Balham Burger, featuring peanut butter (yes, that's right) is delicious. Try it!

Parks & Nature

This park is moments from my home. It's a huge expanse of green space and has cross fit stations and outdoor gyms dotted throughout. It's a great place for a run and and work out.

Shopping

Northcote Road is a great spot for trendy boutiques, dusty antique shops, traditional butchers, hip bars and fab foodie places. 'Breadstall' - the bakery in a caravan on the street - is a great place to pick up amazing bread... but make sure you try the Sausage Roll. It's immense.
