Featured Clapham Common Restaurants
1. The Avalon
British, Modern restaurant in Balham
16 Balham Hill - SW12
2021 Review: “A great pub!” (part of the Three Cheers Pub Co) down Balham way, with smart interior and gorgeous, big outside garden, and where steaks and ‘artisan pizzas’ are mainstays of a comprehensive menu: “even if the pub was boring, I’d come back time and again for the fantastic food!”
2. Bistro Union
British, Modern restaurant in Clapham
40 Abbeville Rd - SW4
This “buzzy, friendly, smart-casual local” in ‘Abbeville Village’ – sibling to Adam Byatt’s Clapham star Trinity – thrives on a menu of “French-inflected food that delivers flavour and fun”. “Friendly staff” and “cooking that never lets you down” make it many people’s ideal of a “good neighbourhood restaurant”.
3. Nue Ground
British, Modern restaurant in Clapham
32 Abbeville Road - SW4
2022 Review: “Super neighbourhood spot that balances being cool with being welcoming” – this all-day café bar in Clapham (same owners as WC), promotes an ethos promising ‘a conscious effort towards quality coffee, healthy food, lifestyle and environment’. Early reports suggest it lives up to its aims, with excellent brews and “interesting and varied food options with an Australian twist, in a friendly, bright setting with a lovely courtyard”.
4. Zia Lucia
Pizza restaurant in Balham
65 Balham High Road - SW12
“Lush pizza” that’s reliably “top-quality” has driven the expansion of this Islington-based group that has developed four different 48-hour ferment bases – including gluten-free and ‘black vegetable charcoal’ versions to reduce stomach gas; so “everyone’s happy”. The eight-year-old group now has nine sites in the capital (including a new one labelled as ‘Chelsea’ but on Fulham Broadway) and one in Reading.
