SAMA Bankside, Inside Garden Arch

About Venue

SAMA Bankside is a unique bar, restaurant, events space and late night venue in the heart of London's Bankside on the Southbank between the Tate Modern and Oxo Tower.

SAMA Bankside would not be out of place in Brooklyn or Berlin and is located within Victorian railway arches over 2 floors besides Blackfriars Bridge and was voted "Best All In One Venue" in the Design My Night 2017/18 Awards within 6 months of opening.

The venue specialises in private hire for corporate events, away days, summer and Christmas parties, product launches, wrap parties, weddings and networking events. The space is very flexible and the friendly team is always happy to accommodate your needs and ideas. Send an enquiry to see how they can help you make your event extra special.

There are also private spaces here ideal for meetings and other events where you're looking to be slightly more secluded.

This is an independent company and not part of a chain, offering an individual experience in a friendly space where you can escape from the stresses of city life. A simple stroll up the cobbled slope and you'll feel like you're miles away from the city. Welcome to a completely unique venue experience!

Our Inside Garden Arch is a semi-private space inside the venue benefitting from daylight that leads in from our outside area, and opens out to our main bar area at the other end.

This space is ideal for smaller summer parties, drinks receptions, birthdays and engagement parties for up to 50, or dinners for up to 32 guests.

The space is decorated with flowers and fake grass, adding to that summer feel, along with artwork to get you talking.
