The story
Home SW13 serves modern European cooking in Barnes. Situated on Church Road, the restaurant functions as the sister venue to the group's location in Putney. The kitchen focuses on robust brasserie fare suited for substantial meals. Steak tartare arrives properly seasoned, accompanied by a Tabasco bottle for bespoke spicing. The Good Food Guide named the restaurant a Local Gem, highlighting the balance between quality and value in a high-cost postcode.
Cornish monkfish appears served on the bone, accompanied by an orangey sauce maltaise and sprouting broccoli. Winter menus feature an osso buco crafted from venison instead of veal, paired with winter greens and smoked potato. The kitchen maintains a straightforward approach to protein-forward plates. Seasonal programming includes festive collections, such as a Beef Wellington Banquet or shared tasting menus priced per person.
Wines flow from both bottles and tap, offered at prices positioned as fair for the neighbourhood. A bar menu runs daily until late, providing lighter options before the main dinner service starts. The layout supports private function bookings, with a front café space adaptable for up to twenty seated guests. Full restaurant hire covers eighty seats for larger occasions.
