    Butler's Wharf is an English historic building. Originally a dockyard and warehouse, it now redeveloped into cafes, restaurants and residential buildings. The development almost mirrors that of St. Katherine Docks on the opposite bank, which in my humble opinion has better restaurants and cafes. Attested by the fewer bars and restaurants, plus the occasional closed shop too. The best part of eating at Butler Wharf is the view of Tower Bridge, especially on a nice sunny day.

    Great place for taking photographs of London Bridge and the city! Really nice views and when the tide is low, a beach can sometimes reveal itself

    The pier offers GREAT views of Tower Bridge, plus a nice area to have a walk by the river. There’s also a good selection of bars/restaurants with outdoor terraces so you can enjoy the view

    I walked through the sidewalk by the Thames River. From the west of the tower bridge it is possible to fly a drone so I went there to take some aerial pictures. The views are amazing. There are several restaurants where you can eat well and zip some wine by the side of the river. You can also go from there to the Borough Market for coffee and dessert. If you go to London don't miss this spot. P.D. I recommend using the boat public transportation to get a better view of the historical places from the water. It is much cheaper than the tour boats.

    Interesting urban development and planning with an astonishing view onto Tower Bridge; from the Pier there is the opportunity to hire boats for privat tours esp. for birthdays or other festivities (a costly enterprise, but an unforgettable memory for the gala guests).

    Went to lunch at Butler's Wharf Pier. Never mind the view, the excellent steaks which were amazing. What topped it all was the wonderful manager and servers who made our experience memorable. We came away with a big smile on our face. Thank you and we will be back if only to say hello to these wonderful staff.

    Come here for the great restaurants with an amazing view or just take a stroll alongside the pier! The view is gorgeous and you can have a relaxed time while away from the city noise

  • 5/5 Justin S. 6 years ago on Google
    A historic part of the river, and right by the City of London square mile, there are plenty of excellent restaurants, cafes and shops to visit and a superb part of the river Thames, especially if you want to take in sites like Tower Bridge, City Hall on London's famous skyline.

    One of the less explored locations to view the tower bridge. Nice array of restaurants and shops (most of them closed during lockdown)

    Gorgeous bridge, view of the residential boats (don't look too close, that's creepy), and the inlet.

    Great touristic area. Good to see people around again, live is back on the piers. We enjoyed our sunny day at the tower bridge, must-see absolutely.
