The Cyclist is a modern British pub in the heart of Balham.
On the menu, our all-day food offer focuses on seasonality and sharing - from small plates to hearty gastropub classics - while weekends are all about Saturday brunch and stunning Sunday roasts.
Behind the bar you'll find the best of London’s craft beer scene, classic cocktails, small-batch gins and artisan wines.
Located opposite Balham station, we’re the perfect spot for a few pints, a quick bite, or dinner with friends and family, and our street-side terrace is made for al fresco drinking and dining.
