The Neighborhood:

Few places bustle like Battersea these days, with top-notch restaurants, bars and boozers bringing 'em in from far and wide. The Battersea Arts Centre continues to showcase some of the best in the business, and the zoo and the park are great for kids (and kids within). The Pump House Gallery is as good as ever and then there's the heliport, with choppers taking you for some seriously impressive views across our fair city.



Battersea has plenty of shops and restaurants — close to Clapham Junction, up St John’s Road, continuing along Northcote Road and up the hill from the junction along Lavender Hill and Battersea Rise. There is a Debenhams department store on the corner of Lavender Hill and St John’s Road.



Northcote Road is dominated by mid-market chains such as Jigsaw, Whistles and Phase Eight and youth brands White Stuff and Jack Wills. Two long-standing butchers, Dove & Son and Hennessy, along with sports shop Capstick and jewellers Asquiths have survived other local independents.



Celebrity chef Gordon Ramsay’s London House restaurant in Battersea Square has brought fine dining to the area. Other local eateries include Soif, a French bistro and wine bar in Battersea Rise, part of the Terroirs group, which has pioneered natural and organic wines; Boqueria Market, a tapas bar in Queenstown Road; the eccentric Fish in a Tie Mediterranean restaurant in Falcon Road, and two imports from Brixton Village — sourdough pizza restaurant Franco Manca in Northcote Road, and KaoSarn, a Thai restaurant in St John’s Hill.



Getting Around:

Rail: Clapham Junction has trains to locations both within and outside London, including Brighton and other south coast destinations.
