Bush Bar and Grill

A thoroughly modern venue in an old-fashioned part of town. Great cocktails at the stylish bar, simple but good Anglo-French food in the restaurant.
Canyon

American dining by the river, with hearty American portions. Good for weekend roasts and brunch.
Monsieur Max

This fabulous French restaurant is unhurried, unpretentious and oozing Gallic goodness. The menu changes daily.
Putney Bridge

A brilliant view of the river from this smart, innovative glass restaurant makes it a good spot year-round, and the modish French menu is excellent.
Tandoori Kebab Centre

This is one of the best Asian restaurants in the area, specializing inbalti dishes, fried in searingly hot saucepans, andtandoori dishes, cooked in clay ovens.
The Atlas

A popular, friendly “gastro-pub” serving excellent Mediterranean-style food and wine. Real ales and an attractive garden.
The Dove

With the smallest bar in Britain, a warm fire, good local beer, a riverside terrace and no children, this is as close to a perfect pub as you can get. Good bar food is served lunchtime and evening.
The Gate

Probably the best vegetarian restaurant in London, The Gate is worth hunting out. The gourmet menu changes regularly, and the meals are hearty and inventive. Closed Sundays.
The Glasshouse

The food is exciting, modern European at this relaxed restaurant.
The River Café

The “best Italian restaurant outside Italy” is the long-standing reputation of this imaginative Fulham restaurant, housed in a converted warehouse with a river terrace.
