The Grove Pub

Community pub, proudly serving Balham locals.

A hidden gem tucked away from the hustle & bustle of Balham High Street, this community focused, dog friendly pub is one of Balham's best pubs. Our modern twist on the classic pub includes a raised dining area adjacent to the traditional bar along with light & airy spaces with sumptuous leather sofas. Join us for a cracking Sunday roast, vegan and vegetarian dishes, light bites or coffee to fuel those afternoon school runs with the kids.
