The Crabtree stands on the north bank of the Thames between Hammersmith and Putney, with a large garden running down to the river path. It is popular on summer afternoons and for Sunday lunch. Hammersmith and Putney Bridge are the nearest stations, both about fifteen to twenty minutes’ walk away, or walk along the Thames Path. Come on a sunny day to make the most of the garden, and book ahead for Sunday lunch.
