Restaurants near Bankside

My wife and I were entertaining two of our teenage grandsons to afternoon tea as a holiday treat. We wanted them to appreciate the excellent quality of the Hansel & Gretal set tea - which we knew they would! - as well as enjoying the wonderful view of the river and the city-scape at nightfall. We, and our grandsons, were not disappointed. Excellent value for money and every bit the special occasion we wanted it to be.

Excellent authentic Italian food cooked by Italians, with a super choice of wines. Very friendly and efficient service. This tiny restaurant is also a deli and a cafe.

Lovely restaurant in a great location. Plenty to choose from and enjoyed the variety. Food could have been hotter but still tasted nice. Service was ok but not very attentive. The manager appeared stressed out because of the staff issues. Was surprised that service charge was added to our bill which appeared more than 10% of total bill and also it was serve yourself but the manager was very helpful in amending the bill for us. We left happy and fully fed.

Fantastic service, great cocktails and really tasty food. Perfect place for a Christmas Dinner 😊❤️

the staff were friendly and helpful and the food was delicious. while i was waiting for my main course i was given delicious bread and humous. i chose the chicken pide as my main and chocolate cake as my dessert. both were delicious. i was tempted by one of their mocktails, but ran out of time before a matinee at shakespeare’s globe. i’d recommend this restaurant, especially if you’re attending the globe as it’s only across the road.
