Local guide
About South Bank
If you're a culture vulture and like a good riverside promenade, then this is the place for you. The South Bank is home to The National Theatre, The Southbank Centre, The Royal Festival Hall, and The National Theatre, all of which offer dazzling international programmes. On the weekends, it is home to a popular food market and the riverfront fills up with Londoners and tourists alike, attracted by the bustle, the culture, and romantic waterside walking and drinking opportunities.
Explore the area
Local restaurants, cafes, museums, sites and activities, recommended by our community of hosts and travel experts
Marvel at the Tate Modern
Britain’s foremost art museum has everything from Picasso to Pollock spread over 5 floors. Entry is free as are the 360° views from the top.
Pancakes at The Table Café
Not your usual, small, cosy, Aussie style brunch spot. This place is big, serves up full english brekkies all day. Best of all are their Buttermilk Pancakes, completely customisable.
Dine at OXO Tower
Enjoy high-end dining with stunning panoramic views of the River Thames and North London. Indulge in a diverse menu of globally influenced brasserie dishes, accompanied by attentive service and a beautiful atmosphere.
Find your Romeo at The Globe Theatre
This is unfortunately a replica of the original Elizabethan era theatre which is open air and puts on some of the most fabulous interpretations of Shakespeare's masterful portfolio.
Savour Modern Italian at Union Street Café
This is Gordon Ramsay's easy going approach to modern Italian food. The pasta is delicious, the bar is perfect for a cocktail after an exhibit at the Tate and the desserts are mouth watering.
Enjoy a hearty Brunch at Caravan
As you’d expect, the food at this third branch of coffee-roasters-turned-fusion-fare hawkers, Caravan, is sound – with a broad, globally peripatetic menu. Order the cornbread and peanut wontons.
Fire up your taste buds at Casa do Frango
Set in an airy brick space full of light and greenery, this new Southwark gem is a fab spot for tasting regional Algarvian dishes including the the star of the show, the ’frango’ peri peri chicken.
Indulge your sweet tooth at Where The Pancakes Are
A whole restaurant dedicated to pancakes, what more could you want? From the savoury to the sweet, the blueberry to the bacon and maple syrup, they have every option covered.
Dine under the arches at Flat Iron Square
Visit this hub for drinking, dining and dancing in the shadow of The Shard. The outdoor space is host to a flea market on the weekend and there are so many delicious food options to choose from.
