    One of the hidden jems of London. Place to be visited by history and art lovers. Perfect place to take instragramable pictures. Unique diner at the same time. Parking is a problem but public transport would be highly recommended. There are lots of interesting sculptures to enjoy. Also a distent view of O2.

    We were in the area for a wedding. Great spot for socialising and had no idea there was so much to see and do! Will be returning to check out more of the sights and especially the what looks like a great selection of bars and eateries. Great day out for something a bit different in London. Well connected to tube and DLR.

    Amazing wedding venue. We went for a wedding here and I was involved with the set up and liaising with the venue before and after the day. Venue is empty on hire but with the right weather is spectacular. Great views during the day and night!

    As a wedding venue it was fabulous. Weather was spot on so guests could move in and out as much as they liked. Very well organised. Food and drink plentiful. Staff more than polite and helpful. Romantic and beautiful.

    Great place for a short visit. A lot of outdoor artworks, fine river views, space to sit and relax and a small selection of cafe/bars. There is not much parking space and I suspect access by vehicle is controlled. Best approach is by bicycle or on foot.

    Beautiful building at the Chainstore as well as the electrician's shop. Trinity Buoy Wharf' features on the 2021 Great British Seeing Bee and was the location where the New Year's Eve 2020 drones we sent up for the performance above the London O2 too. They do weddings as well as many events through the year. Fat boys diner is just next door for a bite to eat for breakfast or lunch. Limited parking options, so it's best to arrive on foot

    A hidden gem within London. The Lighthouse and surrounding area is steeped in history and is very interesting. There is a diner, a café and public toilets tucked behind the café. We used public transport to get there. The D3 bus takes you almost there. There isn't a lot a parking space. It's well worth the effort if you're looking for something different to see in London.

    Lots of interesting and unusual things in this little hidden area of east London. Lightship 95 studio, Fatboys American diner, a car with a tree growing out of the roof, etc. An enjoyable area of exploration for any type of person, great photography options, artistic influences, quirky coloured buildings and plenty of history. Recommended

    Amazing view of the o2 and cable cars in the distance. It was very quiet and was not busy at all. Didn’t know there was a light house in London until now. Very interesting place. There’s an information ℹ️ centre before you enter the site and you can pick up some booklets for free. Toilets are located at the back of the cafe and are free and clean!

    Hidden gem in east London. Would recommend for a quiet walk, the docks vibe and amazing views of Canary Wharf. Not far from the cable car so it lends itself to a good day out plan.

    An art oasis in the middle of nowhere. This is one of my favourites places in London. Don't expect many restaurants or bars- there is one diner and one coffee shop but this is how it should be. If you enter the space, the steam- punk machines would guide you around. Take a look at them (sometimes you can play with them too), go and check the moon clock and mostly, go and see the only one lighthouse in London! It's super cool. And take your time to enjoy the river view. Finally, there is a phone booth. Go, and pick up the phone. Yes, someone will call you...

    A must visit if you are the area! This part of town is turning into an artistic showcase paradise! Great exhibitions indoors and outdoors

    The food was nice but difficult to order. The staff member serving was seemingly indifferent, rude and not easy to communicate with. I could see how easy was to order a near vegan breakfast just by removing the cheese, other food options too but she bluntly said there are no vegan breakfast. I ended up with a dry bun with bit of avocado. The vegan breakfast I had last year and vegan cheesecake was amazing but maybe new management. The food is there but the person serving was not being even remotely helpful. I noticed she was very short with my cycling colleagues too. Bad experience.

    This is a hidden little gem to go for a wellbeing walk. Great views, art, and cosy cafe.

  • 5/5 Justin B. 1 year ago on Google • 37 reviews
    Lovely little area with the only Lighthouse in London, great food at Fat Boys, some old ships, informative signage, nice walkways, and clean public toilets. Next time in London we are coming back here.

  • 4/5 Erim T. 8 months ago on Google • 33 reviews
    One of the great historical places to see. The site of London's first lighthouse. It is nice that the historical buildings were modernized.

  • 5/5 Steve R. 3 months ago on Google • 27 reviews New
    If you've never been its worth going. There is a very nice Cafe made from lorry containers and does good food and has great light being all window and by the river. Walking around the Wharf takes you past more container studios and workshops in the old buildings as well and lots of metallic art. Being over by the water it can have a fantastic river vista as its on a huge bend of the Thames and the clipper boats often have work done there I think. There is an original 50s Diner whuch was always wonderful but looks closed at the moment ( February 2024) ...

    Based on my latest visit, which was today 13th of August, to do flowers for a lovely wedding. All suppliers and the planner were great. Shame that the venue person was of the old fashioned "if you want something done, do it yourself " school...she couldn't turn the lights on "until I've changed my trousers" which was the most engaged conversation we had. This venue was one of the first I ever decorated for Mask Entertainment - no longer in business - when the new Milenium Dome was a real attraction. So it was an emotional return.. Weddings are always magical here though I wish there was a sign to explain the silver dolphin on a bike and cab with a tree growing through it and other wild sculptures? Lots of photo opps!

    The best wedding venue! I’ve photographed here a few times now and it’s just so good. You can make the Chainstore your own and you have incredible views over the Thames!

  • 5/5 Astrid G. 1 year ago on Google • 9 reviews
    Loved my visit to Trinity Buoy Wharf. Who knew there was a lighthouse in London?! Longplayer was such an interesting find, cute coffee shop in a shipping container and great views.

  • 4/5 Giorgio B. 11 months ago on Google
    A great space for even just a walk on the outskirts of London, with a great view of the O2 dome. Don't miss out on the opportunity to visit the Longplayer installation inside the lighthouse, but bear in mind this is open only on Saturdays and Sundays.

    Fantastic experience at the John Ruskin Art Prize 2024 at Trinity's Buoy Wharf.

  • 4/5 Ray B. 2 years ago on Google
    I went here to meet friends at fat boys diner which was great. Clean toilets on site. Located right by the north entrance to the Blackwall tunnel but tucked away so it's easily missed if you haven't been before. There is another diner on site also.

  • 4/5 mike h. 2 years ago on Google
    A real hidden gem of a place if you're into querky architecture / art / sculpture vibe, rooted into sea-going heritage of lightship at the mouth of the River Lee. Great views up the Thames and of the O2 too.

    We have just finished our DJ set at the Trinity buoy wharf. What a beautiful venue. We supplied equipment and DJ for Jay m& Caas wedding. Robyn was incredible all the way up to tonight’s set. The bride and groom were over the moon with the service from the venue and staff were saying it’s the best sound they have ever heard. (Photos of our equipment is attached). We have a booking in place for 2023 so willl be looking forward to returning. Thank you

    A coffee with a silly name costs more than a buoy used to, another victory for capitalism, but to be fair the whole thing is artistically and artfully done. The views are great, there's plenty of respect for the history of the place, and let's face it, its fantastic to see renovated spaces like this. It would be a bit more fantastic to see some of the proceeds pumped back into London and Londoners, but hey ho
