Aqua Shard, Exclusive Use

We were shown to a table at the window, with amazing views. We had bread &olives while we looked at the menu. I ordered the octopus to start , which was the best I’ve ever eaten. A good size portion and beautiful presentation. Then had the venison, which was perfectly cooked. My partner had beef,and we shared the sides of mash and cauliflower cheese. All good size portions, great presentation and tasted delicious. Then I had the “shard” dessert. Throughout the meal the waiter poured our wine. The service was excellent, and we were not at all rushed. I will definitely recommend and be returning. The only negative was they add 15% service to the bill. I think it should be left to the customer to decide.

We had the best tea time experience at this restaurant. Our server, Alisha went above and beyond to ensure we had the best experience possible. We arrived a little early, but the waiting area was very comfy and we got to enjoy the spectacular view. Once seated, our Peter Pan tea experience began. There were cute little touches, they were very accommodating with our dietary restrictions and we got to enjoy everything without feeling rushed. I’m always hesitant about trying places i see on social media because sometimes the quality of service doesn’t match the views. However, everything about aqua shard was nothing short of perfect. Thank you for a memorable time!

We often forget what amazing treasures we have on our doorstep; our visit was simply a date day and a chance to enjoy our wonderful capital together and all its sights. The food was divine and enough and so beautifully presented. My only criticism is the butter was too hard and couldn't be spread on our sourdough rolls (despite the rolls being warm too!) The ambience was relaxed and calming with just the right amount of attention from the staff. The views of the London skyline fom the window table simply enhanced the experience. It was a wonderful way to spend a few hours before moving on to explore all that London has to offer. We were not rushed and there was the perfect amount of time between courses to rest and be ready for the next. Very tempted to go back for the evening as our brunch was so delicious. Thank you all for such a lovely experience.
