    2/11/2023 - Thursday. Special, Joyful day with my husband at OXO Tower. We were having a lovely lunch served by two lovely servers by the name Tiziana DM & Mark S. The service was excellent ⭐️. The food was delicious. The restaurant atmosphere was cosy, with a great view looking out towards River Thames. Thanks to the chefs ( though we never meet or who they are ), the food were superb. We were definitely coming back for more. Highly recommended ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️🎂

    Went here for my birthday dinner food was good but portions was small for the price and £12 for an tiny bday cake was silly. The sauce that went with the sauce was very salty. We needed a lot more then two tiny packs of butter for 6 pieces of Tiny bread. Felt getting the waiters attention was a little hard too. The outdoor terrace was nice at night.

    Ok building, on one of the best Riverside walks in London. Nice Art Gallery on ground floor. Interesting collection of arty bits and pieces on mezzanine. Steps providing easy access to the river right in front of the building. Nice bar upstairs worth a visit

    One side was full up with a private function but the other was open to the public. Lovely staff, cracking little high table with stools. The view was great, the weather great and the young lady from France who served me friendly and professional to perfection. When I left without my hat she popped it behind reception in case I came back for it. If you're going for a drink in London this should be in your top three.

    Oh, the OXO Tower! It's such a beautiful place! The restaurant there is really nice, and the view of London from the tower is absolutely breathtaking, especially with the River Thames right beside it. You should definitely check it out if you're in London!

    51st birthday dinner, lovely experience. Had the Chateaubriand just to myself, ate both portions as partner vegetarian. 2 bottles of champagne also and bill was just over 400, on a Saturday night. Lovely meal.

    Fabulous dinner and wine selection. Beautiful venue and views across the Thames and the City. We booked for 6pm and it was fairly quiet, getting busier from 7:30. Great selection of wines and broad selection from the venue. Everything just that little bit extra and different. Thoroughly enjoyable.

    Was great to be back up in London. Had some amazing cocktails on the balcony. But you were a bit packed in with people next to you. But worth it for the great views!

    Very nice location, attentive and polite staff, good choice of champagne and other drinks. The food was good - but could have been better, hence I had to withdraw one star. Will still come back soon, maybe just for a drink with a view in the bar section.

    Excellent French style restaurant and brasserie in London. Clean, spacious and very bright, this restaurant has well-trained staff and exceptional cuisine. We recommend without reservation for an event or why not, for a casual outing.

    I took my wife and 3 kids there so see the veiw from the viewing platform. We loved the sights on London and most especially as it was free to go and take the opportunity. The one thing that was kind of a let down was that the area was really small when we arrived there were some people put there having a cigarette but none the less we still had our turn. We were there when the sun had just about set and it was really lovely. Thanks for letting us visit.

    If you're in the area, the Oxo is a must to go up to with an open public space next to the restaurant and bar which is great for pictures and videos. I would give a 5 but the security told me that I couldn't use my Manfrotto Super Clamp and take a video of the Thames for some reason.

    If you can go down to the Southbank it is a very very good day out.

    Love the scenery. Love the area. Riverside walking alongside Southbank, Gabriel's Wharft with its seaside small patch! Then a climbing on the steps to the bridge and alas on Blackfriars.

    This is a good place to hang out if you like being beside the River Thames with everything going on. The Oxo Centre was originally a set of wharf side warehouses which have been converted over. There is a lot going on in there and everyone is observing social distancing as best as they can. It gets quite tight along these walkways so would suggest if you have any health issues you wear a mask and take necessary precautions. Service is very good, we stopped off to have a drink and I like this area a lot and very good place to relax.

    Lovely views - nicely spaced desks due to Covid and kind and attentive staff. Booking was easy, food was a little small on the portion size and price is on the larger size but with this type of cuisine it’s what you’d expect. Would definitely recommend for a special occasion. #oxo #food #dinner

    You wanna have a look at London skyline but not interested in paying 30£ at the shards? Come visit the oxo tower. It's only 8th floor so don't expect much but it's free. Just take the elevator and come to 8th floor. There's a restaurant. Ask the staffs and they will show u where to go. Take all ur time and enjoy the beautiful views from there. Eat or drink at the restaurant if u want. Also there r shops in this mall so time will be well spent

    Great early evening dinner on the outside terrace on a glorious summer's day. Food and service was generally good although pork dish was a bit tough. Otherwise, very good. Terrific views across London.

    We had a school get together here. Ambiance, staff and company was really lovely. Live guitar background music also VG I have given 4 stars because, unless you know where the restaurant is. It is not easy to find. The signage is terrible. My food tasted really good. Beautifully presented. My main course was cold.

    The free public viewing platform at the Oxo Tower is one of my favourite hidden gems in London. Although it is not a particularly large space, it provides a serene spot to observe the busy river traffic. The Oxo Tower is situated on the south bank of the River Thames, close to the Tate Modern Museum. You do not need to book a ticket to access the viewing platform, which offers a cool viewpoint and is a great spot for photographing St. Paul's Cathedral.

    Fantastic spot for a drink with one of the best views in London. We were gifted with an awesome night view of the Thames. Very cool vibe and impeccable service.

    Went to the restaurant at 10th floor. We enjoyed the food and cocktails. Service was perfect. Awesome view and atmosphere. Worth a visit.

  • 5/5 Fi O. 1 month ago on Google • 11 reviews New
    Food was delicious. Staff were very attentive and helpful. We had lovely views of St Paul's across the river. We had an early booking 5.30 as we were going to a show and we had a choice of seating in consequence. They surprised me with a birthday cake at the end of the meal. A wonderful evening.

  • 5/5 Kelly L. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely incredible visit. Pre booked for my husband's 50th birthday. Really friendly and helpful with the booking. Fantastic service on the day, already had noted down to put happy birthday on my husband's pudding and as expected fantastic food. We were lucky to have the sunshine and enjoyed lovely views of London from a window table.

  • 3/5 Neil S. 1 year ago on Google
    Quick visit to a location that’s always been on my list. Unfortunately the experience was a little disappointing. Not much atmosphere, and the place looks a little like an airport terminal. They need to replace the artificial grass on the balcony with something better. Views are nice, staff didn’t appreciate our feedback on the bar drinks. Will not be rushing back.

  • 5/5 Martin J. 1 year ago on Google
    The South Bank is a wonderful place to appreciate the amazing London skyline! The Oxo Tower is one of many developments where the former glories of old London have been preserved in modern and interesting ways. Highly Recommended.

  • 5/5 Lorna A. 6 months ago on Google
    Had an amazing time. Treating husband for a special birthday. We were early but still seated quite well with gorgeous views of London. Food was delicious and the service perfection. Attention to detail was top draw! A lovely afternoon drink on the terrace was an added plus, with gratis honeyed snacks when the weather turned chilly and we came inside was a decent touch. Seriously worthy of the 5 stars!

  • 5/5 Yolanda C. 1 year ago on Google
    We went to the brasserie and it was absolutely stunning. The view, the food and the service was perfect. The staff was SUPER friendly and accommodating. Will definitely be going back!

  • 4/5 Danny R. 1 year ago on Google
    Tiny public access to the roof terrace, but a great view for free. Restaurant and bar have broader views of you don't mind buying food/drinks.

  • 4/5 Erikiux S. 2 years ago on Google
    Many years ago I came here to see an exhibition about The day of the death, and it was amazing!, it was well organised and the had different activities in different floors, in the ground floor an enormous Ofrenda (altar) and another floor movies, activities for children, face paintings, etc. With the current situation, at the moment is only small exhibitions at the entrance, but, if you walk along the river and you want to rest and stop for a nice coffee, ice cream, refreshments or food, there are various options and there are some nice shops, which they are worth to take a look. This is an iconic place and I'm quite sure in a very near future many wonderful exhibitions like the one I saw are going to be available for people to enjoy them like I did👍

    An iconic part of old London .Plenty of photo opportunities. Lovely part of the thames.lots to do and eat and drink.

  • 5/5 Jack W G. 3 years ago on Google
    One of the nicest meals I’ve had in my life. Food was definitely worth the price. The single ginger and rhubarb gin with ginger ale mixer cost me £11.25 but the price is expected in such a prestigious and high quality restaurant. Looking at the size of the dish and you think it isn’t going to satisfy your hunger however it does as it’s cooked to perfection and the food is so rich. I wanted to order dessert too but we were too full.

  • 5/5 Karol G. 3 years ago on Google
    Beautiful view! I love it.I recommend doing the visit around 6 when it is starting to get dark because you can see the change day / night and the view is beautiful.

  • 5/5 Tony A. 3 years ago on Google
    Great service, lively but not hectic. Food was divine. Lots of flavours , filling but not heavy. Even the side dishes were bursting with flavours.

  • 5/5 Mari P. 3 years ago on Google
    Excellent brunch, really friendly staff. We enjoyed a great vegan burger set lunch and the crab sliders were really good too. Smoked almonds from the bar snacks menu were very good as were the cocktails and mocktails we enjoyed. Sat outside so fantastic views. It was unusually quiet which made it even more enjoyable.

  • 5/5 Seth D. 3 years ago on Google
    Amazing for special occasions. The food is delicious, and the customer service is outstanding. The views of St George's and the London eye are breathtaking, and make brilliant photo backdrops!

    Amazing view of the skyline of London

  • 3/5 Huafrin K. 1 year ago on Google
    Went for after work drinks and the selection and variety of cocktails were lovely. However, the bar staff were very rude to us when we informed him we would be paying separately. Even though we ordered at the bar we were served with a service charge. I'm not sure reaching 2m across the bar to place a drink infront of us warrants as service on top of an already expensive cocktail. Would probably not recommend this place to others.

  • 4/5 Tom D. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely little galleries and shops. Open courtyard and grass adjacent to have a crash out in the sun for two minutes of peace. Pleasant part along the Thames Southbank area.

  • 5/5 Jinsu V. 2 years ago on Google
    We did the set menu and at that price felt it to be a great deal. Food was great. Cocktails were yumm and the location is fantastic for a special event or date. Definitely going to visit again.

  • 4/5 Pamela D. 2 years ago on Google
    This area is pretty cool with different types of architecture and a few shops, restaurants, and artists' studios.

  • 5/5 Shaz 3 years ago on Google
    This is one of the best restaurants in London including a separate bar which is also very special. The view is incredible particularly at night when London is lit up. This is not the place to go if you're on a budget but for special occasions it's unrivaled.

  • 5/5 Tarun Y. 2 years ago on Google
    Nice views from Southbank; good cocktails too... around £15-£16 a Cocktail. Particularly liked 'Garden of Eden'. They kindly give you a plate of sweet+smoky nuts (which our lovely waiter refilled !). Date night - 3x Cocktails will set you back about £100. RECOMMEND

  • 5/5 Han W. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely setting on Southbank. We sat and had a drink whilst the sun set. Highly recommend.
