Notable for its extraordinarily beautiful location in the heart of Holland Park and stunning 17th century building. If it's a sunny day try to get a seat on the terrace upstairs. The food is not bad too although not cheap!

Once you get past the terrible traffic roundabout that is Hammersmith Broadway and head over the beautiful Hammersmith Bridge turn immediately left on the other side of the bridge and down a few steps to the Thames Pathway. It's a lovely 30 minute walk along this magnificent river to Putney Bridge. It feels surprisingly rural for central London.
