Local area
Castelnau is one of Barnes’s main thoroughfares, connecting the village to Hammersmith Bridge and carrying a steady flow of residents going about their daily lives.

Barnes has long favoured small, owner-run businesses over chains, and Upper Barnes Food & Wine sits comfortably within that tradition — the kind of shop that anchors a stretch of road and becomes, over time, a familiar and relied-upon part of community life.
