Sat on the River Wandle, a traditional, warm and welcoming pub. Serves a great Sunday roast. Perfect for a drink on a summer's afternoon.

Aya Lebanese Cuisine

The staff are always welcoming, the food beats all other competition of its type. Not only is the food delicious but healthy because of being charcoal grilled. There is always a friendly, welcoming, lively environment every time I go and take the family.

Awesome Lebanese food at a good price. I would recommend a £6 lunch box deal, but make sure you order a little in advance.

"The name Collier's Wood derives from woodland in the area that was either used for or occupied by charcoal burners."

Wandle Park in Collier's Wood is a great place to take a picnic or walk the dog.

Stephanie Kele

Colliers Wood is well connected with the City and central London yet boasts green spaces for families and walking the dog.

Bradley Slade

Still affordable yet benefiting from recent gentrification, Colliers Wood is the next hot spot..

What locals say about Colliers Wood

  1. My budget, cosmopolitan, transportation

  2. Great local market, convenient shopping, diverse locals, well connected

  3. It has got lots of great outdoor spaces and parks, as well as the River Wandle. Whenever I walk alongside it I feel like I'm in the countryside and provides a little bit of piece in the bustling life of London... Colliers Wood is also very close to Wimbledon with lots of amazing bars, restaurants and shops, however I have noticed a couple of new cafes and pubs opening in Colliers Wood too - seems that it has started to become an up and coming area.

  4. We have been living in Colliers Wood for almost 3 years now and really like it. We wanted to be close to Wimbledon but with a cheaper rent! We have a baby and there are so many playgroups and nice families around. We enjoy going to the small local market and to the Tandem center where there are plenty of shops. I work in central London and it's very easy to commute with the northern line. This is an area that I find safe with nice parks. Not as pretty as Wimbledon but not as crowded either!

About Colliers Wood

Colliers Wood is an area in south London, in the London Borough of Merton. Colliers Wood station is served by the London Underground's Northern Line. Colliers Wood takes its name from a wood that stood to the east of Colliers Wood Road, approximately where Warren, Marlborough and Birdhurst Roads are now. Contemporary Ordnance Survey maps show that this wood remained at least until the 1870s but had been cleared for development by the mid-1890s. Colliers Wood shares its postcode district with Wimbledon, with postcode lookups returning this suburb name and some organisations insisting on its use.
