If Chiswick was a country then going for coffee would be its national sport. You’re spoilt for choice for cafes here and can’t go wrong with any of them. Get off at Turnham Green Tube, meander down Turnham Green Terrace, then stroll down the High Road, checking out Devonshire Road on the other side, stopping for coffees as often as your time and bu...
Strand-on-the-Green is quite possibly the most beautiful street in London. Gorgeous envy-inducing houses line this river walkway, but anyone can enjoy the beautiful view. There are a few lovely pubs here, but my favourite is the Bell and Crown. In winter, grab a seat by the blazing log fire. And in summer, perch on the wall with your feet dangling ...

Head to Turnham Green(the actual Green, with the big church in it - not to be confused with Turnham Green Tube station at the other end of the High Road).

There are some great bookshops in Chiswick, and you could spend a whole morning happily mooching around them all. But my favourite is Bookcase, an independent bargain bookshop with friendly staff and an ever-changing stock. It's impossible to leave without buying something.

If you're visiting with children, there are plenty of trees to climb, and there’s also a cafe with a good outdoor play area with a sand pit. Neo-Palladian villa Chiswick H...
Stroll down the cobbled street to St Nicholas Churchand it will seem as though you’ve stepped back in time. Which in a sense you have. This is old Chiswick, where the village sprung up around the church in the 11th century. Keep your eyes peeled for painter William Hogarth's grave.
On a hot day, it’s not rare to see a queue stretching down the road from Foubert'sice cream parlour, where the ice cream is lovingly handmade on the premises. Try the blue banana flavour or the zesty lemon sorbet! This place is not so much an ice cream cafe as a Chiswick institution.
