A relaxed dining experience with views of the River Thames

Designed by visionary Tom Dixon, Sea Containers Restaurant is an all-day dining experience on the River Thames, suitable for any occasion. With an American-British-inspired menu designed for sharing, our dishes celebrate seasonality and local ingredient-led cooking, with a touch of British quirk. Expect a relaxed, inclusive atmosphere, with friendly and engaging staff who create memorable experiences.

Mid-week lunches are light and bright – make it a long, leisurely affair, or pop in for a quick bite and a revitalizing riverside view. Dinners are more intimate, with cosy corners for two and plenty of larger tables for family or group get-togethers.

The vibe at weekend brunch is epitomized by our optional bottomless Bloody Mary or Prosecco bolt-on. On Sundays, a Roast is served at this time too.

Our Private Dining area is a hidden gem on the Southbank, offering an intimate setting for up to 22 guests, including the use of a secluded, south-facing terrace.

Reservations may be made online for parties up to 6, for larger groups please contact [email protected].
