Opening in autumn 2017, this new venue has some big names behind it.

A project from theatre heavyweights Sir Nicholas Hytner and Nick Starr, it has been designed by award-winning architects Haworth Tompkins, and will be the only large commercial theatre in central London that isn’t in the West End. A sizeable auditorium – primarily used for theatre productions – will also be well-suited to conferences and product launches. The Main Foyer is the spot for receptions of up to 350 guests.

Bright and contemporary, the space’s highlights are its huge atrium ceiling and views of Tower Bridge, The Tower of London and Potters Field.

The Lower Ground Foyer is a cosy option, and comes with a 60in screen – great for small presentations and receptions.

In-house catering comes from St JOHN restaurant.

Our main foyer is filled with light and boasts stunning views of the Thames and Tower Bridge. With our iconic lampshades hung through there's always the perfect photo opportunity.

It fits 400 people comfortably and is a great space for fundraisers, corporate events, product launches and award ceremonies (morning and afternoon only if a show is on).

    Wow what an amazing location. It was a mother's day treat and the service was first class. We were given a table upstairs with a fantastic view. Our waiter was great, very friendly and nothing too much trouble. ( Sorry can't remember his name, he was from Morocco but he definitely needs a shout out) We weren't rushed which was lovely. The rose and candle as we left was a very special touch to end a wonderful evening. Thank you to the whole Ivy team 😊 Highly recommend

    Came to The Ivy Tower Bridge for my birthday and it really made my day special. The food was delicious, I went for the cod and chips and the cod was so juicy and tender and chips crispy and fluffy. My partner had the Chicken Supreme Milanese and said it was delicious as well. Sourdough bread to start was so soft and warm and fresh. Cocktails were lovely and well-balanced. Everything came out quickly which was nice. The staff were friendly, and a special thank you to our waiter Gem, he was bubbly and kind and could answer any questions we had. Would definitely return. Oh and fantastic decór and views.

    The Ivy at Tower Bridge offers some of the best views on the historical landmark with a keen attention to detail. We decided to visit to try out their unique "Festive Breakfast" option, which included a choice of fresh smoothies, cinnamon & seasonal fruits muesli and one of 3 typical brunch options for only £16. The option provides great value for money, and together with elegant and respectful service, left us very satisfied. We'll come back!

    Waited a bit too long for food n drinks to arrive. Enjoyed waiters' service, attention n commitment to customers. Latte n chocolate drinks were not to expected standard at all for such an eaterie. My niece n I enjoyed our white Chardonnay. No music in the background.
