Bars & Pubs

A drab exterior does this Putney Common boozer a disservice - the interior is far more lively and welcoming. A big, open-plan room curves around three sides of the central bar, and offers a convivial mix of seating at wooden tables and leather sofas. Beer and wine lovers are equally well catered for - draught ales include London Pride and Adnams Broadside, while the diligent wine list has a superb range by the glass. A daily changing menu offers a selection of solidly British recipes and ingredients. A perfect place to end up after a Sunday stroll by the river.
