Fulham Broadway

Fulham Broadway is a District line station in Zone 2 that serves two very different roles depending on the day. On Chelsea FC match days, the station is the primary Underground access point for Stamford Bridge - the ground is 2 minutes walk from the exit - and crowds are substantial before kick-off and after the final whistle. On non-match days, the station serves the Fulham Broadway shopping area and the residential streets of Fulham, one of south-west London's more prosperous and pleasant neighbourhoods.

The Fulham Road outside the station has a good range of restaurants and cafes. Eel Brook Common, a pleasant local park, is a short walk south and provides one of Fulham's more tranquil green spaces.
