Mark Bainbridge, a sales and lettings consultant at Samuel Estates in Balham, says: It s got a brilliant variety of bars and restaurants and that brings a nice community feel to it. There s a good mix of independent shops and cafes as well it s not only chains. There s plenty to choose from.
Party animals: venturing north of Aldwych for a night out can be a bit of a mission, as the only night bus that services Balham departs from Aldwych. Gah! The people It s a good mixture of young professionals and young families, hotels discount Bainbridge says. You get a slightly more mature person here, the type who s maybe a bit fed up with living in Clapham, where it s a bit busier and has more going on. Balham folk are probably smart spendthrifts, too, in that you get a lot more for your money here than in Clapham.
The Exhibit ( theexhibit.co.uk ) has quickly become a Balham institution, comprising an American-themed diner, cinema, gallery and bar. Particularly popular are the dinner-and-a-movie nights on Tuesday and Wednesday, when 15.90 gets you a cinema ticket and two courses.
There s also a recurring chicken wing-eating competition. For a chilled-out evening, head to Balham Bowls Club ( balhambowlsclub.com ), which also does a mean Sunday roast in its cosy, hunting lodge-esque setting.
As its on the Northern line, Balham is well-connected to many vital London spots. Bank and London Bridge are only 20 minutes away. There s also a National Rail station that takes you to Victoria in around 15 minutes, and the N155 night bus takes 30 minutes to get you home from Aldwych.
