This might sound far afield but as we are in the NVN reader's catchment I'd like to tell you about the Radnor Gardens Café just south of Twickenham round the corner from famous Strawberry Hill House. It has outdoor seating right next to a well maintained playground, is set within lovely park gardens that come with follies and all and all this just a stone's throw from the river Thames. The Radnor Cafe is run by a very friendly, efficient and caring team of two photographers who really love what they do and it shows! You will love their excellent coffee, home made cakes and ice cream. Here is their Facebook link:
