Excellent food and service Problems with paying due to WiFi transmission issues. They are sorting this though and it was all resolved with good humour. Thoroughly recommend my fish pie was excellent as was anchovies to start . My friend had prawns and mackerel . Both from lunch menu and superb. I also bought a skate wing from the fresh fish counter,and even I managed to cook it properly . It was fresh and superb . Do try it , you won’t regret it .

Simply the one of the best restaurants I’ve been to. Service top class with nothing too much trouble, food exceptional, view over the Thames and Tower Bridge adds to the experience . Not cheap but good value because you get what you pay for. Been there numerous times and not once have I had any reason to complain. Well sourced fish in particular and an extensive choice on the menu. Highly recommended.
