Shop local and support our wonderful local shopkeepers
This is far from a definitive list, but we wanted to provide our neighbours with a selection of (almost entirely) independent businesses who are keeping their doors open to serve the good people of Chiswick during this trying time. We doff our purple caps to the shopkeepers and their indomitable staff. Without you, Chiswick simply wouldn’t be Chiswick. 💜
For takeaway and delivery food/drink:

The Italians are serving their mouthwatering homemade food (lasagne anyone?) and coffee as takeaway.

We couldn’t love this locally-owned business any more: Fudge’s Cycles sold us (another!!) bike last week and we laughed ourselves silly as we collected it watching happy dad pedalling with two delighted little girls in his new Babboe!
