A new spot on Kew Green is fast becoming a favourite with locals.

Tucked beside Kew Green Nursery and just opposite the Green itself, Willow Café, part of Kew Green Preparatory School, has established itself as more than just a place to grab a coffee, but a community hub.

Pets are welcomed at Willow Café (credit: Kew Green Prep School).

The café prides itself on its barista-quality coffee, often served with intricate latte art, alongside a menu of freshly made salads, soups and pastas prepared by the catering team at Kew House School, located at the other side of Kew Bridge.

A tempting selection of pastries and cakes also makes it a popular stop for a sweet treat.

With its cosy indoor tables, relaxed outdoor seating and free Wi-Fi, Willow Café welcomes everyone from parents on the school and nursery run to cyclists and visitors to nearby Kew Gardens.

Dog walkers are encouraged to bring their four-legged friends too.

If you are ever by Kew Green, visit Willow Café (credit: Kew Green Prep School).

Whether you're popping in for a quick flat white or lingering over lunch with friends, Willow Café is fast becoming a staple of Kew.

Kew House School and Kew Green Prep School are a sponsor of Richmond Nub News. Without sponsors our Richmond online newspaper would not be possible. Thank you.
