Top Best American Restaurants in Shoreditch

"Designer Tom Dixon went full steam ahead with the maritime theme here, transforming Sea Containers House, a great lump of an office building on the south bank of the Thames, into a hotel that is meant to resemble a transatlantic liner. A transatlantic liner, however, that also references Art Deco, Pop Art and disco, and that makes expressive use of a distinctly non-nautical palette (velvet banquettes in mimosa-yellow, wardrobes in bubblegum pink, staff uniforms in baby blue). Outside, there's Tate Modern to your left, Shakespeare's Globe to your right, and all of London seemingly spread out before you beneath the balcony of the hotel's brilliant, brassy rooftop bar 12th Knot."

"Enjoy glorious views of the River Thames at this buzzy South Bank eatery, located on the bottom floor of the Sea Containers London (formerly Mondrian). Designed by maverick Tom Dixon, the restaurant exudes elegance, with nautical-inspired interiors drawing on the famous Sea Containers House: think copper-clad walls, leather chairs and bright yellow upholstery. This opens onto a brightly coloured terrace, running in partnership with Laurent Perrier."

"A post shared by Sea Containers Restaurant (@seacontainersrestaurant). A life involving small plates of seafood and Laurent-Perrier's Cuvée Rosé by the glass (or bottle) is just the kind of life we deserve, which is why we enjoy being at the Sea Containers London x Laurent-Perrier Summer Terrace. And who's to say that the indigenous flora we're surrounded by when we're there doesn't ground us?"

"If you’re looking for dinner that merges into partying, Blues Kitchen is sure to fit the bill. It’s all about Texan BBQ food here: buffalo chicken wings, chargrilled shrimps, pork ribs and Cajun squid all feature on the hearty menu – not one for veggies. There are three different locations across London (Shoreditch, Camden and Brixton), all of which host live blues and soul music each night, so bring your dancing shoes for some post-feasting fun."

"These guys are always in it for a good time, like every day of the week is Pancake Day… so you know they’ll do it right. Go for an irresistible stack of maple and bacon pancakes and wash it down with a boozy milkshake. Your arteries won’t thank you but who needs gratitude when you’re knee-deep in batter?"

"Known for its top live blues bands, the Shoreditch Blues Kitchen also has a stellar menu to match, boasting mouth-watering Southern grub. A highlight is the Wings & Things sharing platter, offering buffalo wings, pork ribs, sweet potato fries, corn chips and dips. NW1, SW2, EC2, theblueskitchen.com"

": A lively BBQ joint inspired by the crab shacks that line the American Gulf Coast, the first Big Easy opened up on the King’s Road over 20 years ago. With live music on most nights and a variety of different unlimited nights on different days of the week, there is more than enough to bring you in and keep you there all night long!. “This place has hands down the most delicious shrimps in town” says Chris James of Delaney BBQ."

"Little carnivores (aged 10 and under) should be satisfied by the menu available at all branches of Big Easy. For £9.90, they can dig into a burger, rack of ribs, barbecue chicken or macaroni cheese with a generous side and then ice cream to follow. There’s also a great range of soft drinks, like a root beer float."

"Just when you thought mac and cheese couldn’t get anymore indulgent, the folks at Dirty Bones decide to deep fry it to make gooey bite-sized treats. They come served with a sweet chilli sauce to cut through the creamy pasta. When the cheese strings from your mouth, that’s when you know it’s great junk food."

"Seek out your nearest Dirty Bones because these NYC-inspired bars and restaurants have got you covered for all your favourite American eats. From indulgent chicken & waffles, to burnt onion and ale short ribs and spicy chicken burgers, they're all about tasty food, unqiue cocktails and great music."

"It’s co-owned by Bill Wyman, a former member of the Rolling Stones. This themed restaurant is perfect for families—the menu is traditional American fare (think burgers, macaroni and cheese, and chicken strips for the kids and an assortment of burgers, steaks, and other dishes for adults). Combine the delicious food with an electric atmoshere, you can’t go wrong at Sticky Fingers."

"Bill Wyman of the Rolling Stones set up this Kensington restaurant, which serves crowd-pleasing Southern-style food in a comfortable environment. The BBQ menu is packed full of old favourites like burgers, ribs and chicken wings, while the kid’s menu is great value at £7.95 for a meal, drink and pudding too. Satisfaction guaranteed."

"The brainchild of Bill Wyman, Sticky Fingers restaurant offers excellent American style food served in a warm and relaxed atmosphere."

"It’s no wonder that Frankie and Benny’s is one of the most popular places to eat in Wembley Park – they serve up your favourite Italian American classics at a reasonable price. Your little ones will love their cod goujons, cheesy tomato pizza, and crispy chicken breast nuggets. With options on their kids’ menus for big eaters, small eaters, and babies, they have parents covered."

"Frankie & Benny’s is known for classic Italian American dishes and diner favourites, as well as an extensive kids’ menu sure to please the little ones. Tuck into cheesy chicken parmigiana, an ultimate mixed grill, or a vegan Margherita pizza, with outdoor dining and table service to keep everyone safe. No reservation required."

"Endo Kazutoshi has opened a more laid-back, still pristinely wood-panellled neighbourhood ode to the craft of sushi in Westbourne Grove. The Sumi terrace is open for al fresco dining, offering two chirashi boxes with fatty tuna and caviar as optional add-ons."

"If the name sounds familiar, it's because he's the man behind Endo at Rotunda, the very well rated high-end sushi restaurant with a view in White City."

"Alexis Gauthier took over the Georgian building that previously housed Richard Corrigan’s Lindsay House in 2010 after years helming the Michelin-starred Roussillon in Pimlico. Five years later he became the first fine dining chef in London to fully embrace a vegan lifestyle and has been gradually moving the menu here to being fully plant-based (although he’s not anticipating that happening until maybe next year). There is a vegan tasting menu already on though, and if you’re on a diet the good news is that all dishes here have the calorie count displayed."

"Having turned vegan in 2016, French chef Alexis Gauthier will make the food at his Soho restaurant, housed in a converted Georgian townhouse, entirely plant-based upon reopening following lockdown. His vegan ‘Les Plantes’ menu includes a jar of ‘faux gras’ made from lentils, mushrooms and walnuts."

"When it comes to fine dining in London, Gauthier is the place to be. And not just any fine dining: Michelin-star fine dining, at that. What makes their vegan à la carte menu so special, we hear you ask?"

"Marble Hill House is a beautifully proportioned Palladian villa overlooking the Thames at Twickenham. It’s in a fine location, just across the river from one of the main entrances to Richmond Park. It’s also one of the loveliest visitor attractions in London, and one of several things to see in Richmond and around."
