Bikram Yoga Chiswick is one of the best places i have ever encountered in all the time i have been going to gyms and yoga studios.

The staff are amazing and is owner is extremly down to earth
She is not stuck up, or prudish.

Bikram should be proud of her as this is real Bikram Yoga not your pretentious Canary Wharf or any other plush facility.
We are here to practice yoga not compete and BIKRAM YOGA CHISWICK follows this rule of conduct professionally

Very nice place, had lunch with a friend in a quiet wednesday afternoon. The restaurant wasn't very busy, I know it opened not long ago so obviously it looks very nice and cosy, clean and tidy. The lunch menu is a good deal. We had a salad with pork belly and oriental dressing as starter and mackerel with veg. ratatouille as main. All very well made, nothing really whow but the food was good, fresh, with simple clean flavours. What else should you need for lunch?
We declcined the dessert temptation just because I was going back to work afterwards. The espresso wasn't the best ever, definitely too watery.
Still, I'll go back, the staff is good, attentive, friendly. And we had 2 courses lunch with coffee and water for like £ 13 each.
Great value, no doubt.

I agree with the prior comment. Howerver recently I started practising at Bikram Yoga Canary Wharf, which is a large, clean, luxurious studio with an excellent vibe and first rate teachers. Surprisingly it's priced only slightly above the older/smaller studios around London and is easily worth my 50 minute commute to Canary Wharf. If you don't mind mingling with overpaid bankers and Bikram-addicted celebs, I highly recommend it. Also, they have a 2 weeks for £20 offer which pretty much makes it a no-brainer.

Fouberts is Chiswick's local. It's taken pride of place on Chiswick High Road since as far as I can remember. It was once a very standard hotel and restaurant but the food was always good and the place was far from pretentious or snotty. Down to earth would describe it well. It was definitely most famous for it's scrummy ice-creams and also known for it's ever so slightly 'rude-but-real' Italian owners. Oh, and it had a nightclub downstairs too (where I spent many a drunken night).
Due to the prime location and real estate value, they gave up/got lucky/cleared debts/semi-retired (I don't know the true reason) and ended up selling the property for zillions of pounds to The Soho House Group (see here http://www.chiswickw4.com/default.asp?section=info&pa.... Thankfully Fouberts moved just around the corner to Turnham Green Terrace and still does a roaring trade in ice-cream sales. I believe that they also have a branch in Richmond, Surrey but I'm not sure if it's still there. Definitely worth a visit for the ice creams alone.

This place was just opened when I decided to give it a trial, at the beginning of june, on a sunday morning.
Is a small bakery, they've got a small kitchen too for breakfast, soups, salads.
But their topic is the pastry. The big window is incredibly full of good looking sweet treat of any kind (brownies, carrot cakes, spongecakes, croissants, cheesecake, bread, fruit cakes), all of them really colorfull and so yummy! As always, even though is good to see, I don't like the fact that anyone passing by can touch the food, or sneeze on it because there is nothing separating the customers from the window.
Anyway I ordered a cappuccino and a pain au raisin. They do serve your food at the table, so all you have to do is find a seat. Is a small place, with a big communal table with 10 seats, and 3 tables for 4/6.
For the first time since I'm in London the cappuccino was served at the right temperature, ready to drink (that was really impressing to me, since it takes me always half an hour to be able to drink a cappuccino without burning badly my mouth!). Was really well made and the foam didn't disappear while I was stirring it. The pastry was really rich in butter but so good. Crunchy, fresh, with lots of raisin.
Is a lovely place for a treat, if you need a break and a good coffee (I'll be back to try the savoury stuff).
One spot only: is really pricey! Cappuccino and pan au raisin (eat in) = £ 5.00.
But you can't really complain when you get good quality!

Chiswick is close to my new temporary hood in Hammersmith, and home to many fond memories spanning back to 2006. I couldn't step foot in W4 for until 2008, however Saturday night was another welcome return to the High Road as I hit the new boy to the Brixton ancestral pizzeria.

The interior was a little naff I must say, however it was the modestly priced food and broad selection of recommendations that compelled me to visit. The slow-rising sourdough taking a mere 20 hours is the unique selling point. The veggie-friendly buffalo ricotta (I know, I thought it was mozzarella too but then again I'm a bad Italian) loaded with crisp zucchini made me very happy. I'd only comment on the house white being served in a tumbler, which made me grimace on arrival, but nonetheless went down a treat. A victory for value and taste.

This place is the business. A tenner will buy you a tumbler of wine and a big round seriously doughy dinner. I think the theme is speed here, I've never been served so quickly, they practically flung it across the restaurant like a big formaggio frisbee.

Hands down the best pizza in London, served to you by real-life sicillian mobsters.
