Where are some good take-away places to eat lunch on a Saturday within short
walking distance to either the Acton Town or Stamford Brook tube stations? |

No really good ones near Acton Town, apart from the Cafe on the corner
of Bollo road, but its not a Saturday afternoon lunch sort of a place. John wrote: Where are some good take-away places to eat lunch on a Saturday within short walking distance to either the Acton Town or Stamford Brook tube stations? |

No really good ones near Acton Town, apart from the Cafe on the corner of Bollo road, but its not a Saturday afternoon lunch sort of a place. And is frequently full of tube drivers (not that that's necessarily a bad thing) more so since the District canteen at Acton was closed for refurbishment. -- Steve Fitzgerald has now left the building.

A bit of a walk from Acton Town, in fact much closer to Ealing Common
being about a minute's walk from it, but Dante pizzeria do SERIOUSLY good Italian-style pizza and pasta and it's very reasonably priced too. You can eat in or take away. Failing that there is a Nando's chicken restaurant next door to Ealing Common station too. For Stamford Brook, KFC is close enough on Chiswick High Rd or the pub opposite the station (diagonally to the left as you come out) does nice food but it's a bit pricey. Yell.com will recognise a tube station name as a locality so you could try searching on that for more if these aren't to your taste.

Not been round Acton Town for a while, but from Stamford Brook I'd walk on to Chiswick High Road (half way between the Brook and Turnham Green). You'll find all the usual high street suspects but also the Gourmet Burger Kitchen; Silk and Spice (Indo-Malaysian influences); Thai Bistro (apparently very good, though not my kind of food) and the Tiffin Box (Indian). The last 3 come recommended but I can be sure of the opening hours as I am not in Chiswick at the moment; the first I enjoy and will definitely be open! HTH, Tom |

HTH, Tom Are these call casual places where you prepay at the counter and not deal with waiters? We may sit and eat there rather than carry the food out, but we want more of a lower priced place without tips and service charges, but still better and more interesting food than KFC or McDonalds. |

Turn right out of Stamford Brook tube and walk up to Chiswick High Road / King Street. Turn left at the lights and walk along King Street towards Hammersmith. There are dozens of cafes and restaurants along this stretch, including the Chinese Gourmet Buffet which is very good value. HTH Robin |

If you turn right out of Stamford Brook and walk down to the corner,
there are numerous restaurants along both King St (towards Hammersmith) and Chiswick High Rd (towards Chiswick). My favorites are both along King St, the Vietnamese about 3 doors along from the corner, and Chelsea Brasserie a couple of blocks further along. The Vietnamese does takeaways, not so sure about Chelsea Brasserie, but that is more of a casual cafe at lunch times. There's also a greasy spoon in between if you want to partake of a more traditional British style of cuisine, their lard and lard comes recommended, I hear. |
