The Best Place to Chill - Wandsworth Common
Wandsworth Common
This scenic park is a fantastic place to soak up the Sun and probably get sunburnt (you should have listened to your Mum and bought some factor 50.) You could have a picnic with some friends, play Frisbee or chomp on ice cream…seriously, this is the stuff Cath Kidson’s dreams are made of.

Best Place for Dinner - Chez Bruce
Chez Bruce
This sleek and professional gem overlooks Wandsworth Common and features culinary delights, such as pigeon and rabbit. These may seem peculiar, but as the old saying goes, don’t knock it until you’ve tried it. Especially when there are Michelin stars attached to the name.

Best Place for Drinks - The Ship
The Ship Bar and Restaurant
Ideal for the summer sunshine (or lack of it – this is England after all), The Ship’s outside area is complete with its own bar, pergola and private heated booths. Check this place out on a Sunday to join one of their super popular afternoon sessions, that go on way into the night. Affectionately known as ‘last chance’ Sundays, as it’s your last opportunity of the weekend to have a good night out, full of alcohol and regrets.
