The Fentiman Arms

A compulsory meeting place for those needing to analyse England's batting performance after a day at the Oval. Cricket lover or not, this place "so completely outclasses its competitors, that you would be hard pressed not to enjoy a Saturday lunch here" (TNT).

Fentiman Road residents whom have a habit of rarely moving out of the street, have three words to say to any critics of SW8, "Who needs Chelsea?" And this pub encompasses their ethos by being somewhere with a relaxed mood (comfy chairs with fat velvet cushions) really superb food, and frequently recognisable faces who are experts at "settling in".
