Best Dinner Places to Eat in West Byfleet

"If a trip up to the stunning viewing gallery of one of London’s tallest buildings sounds like a pocket drainer, think again. Situated inside a glass oasis at the top of the “Walkie Talkie”, Sky Garden is London’s highest public garden, filled with greenery and boasting panoramic views of the capital. It’s totally free to head up there, but you’ll need to book in advance, with post-lockdown visits starting up again from July 29."

"Travel 43 floors up and see a unique perspective of landmarks like The Shard, St Paul’s Cathedral, Tower Bridge and more. With massive floor-to-ceiling glass windows, an open-air terrace, and beautifully landscaped scenery, you’ll have an abundance of options for IG pics. It also houses a swanky restaurant and bar, so you can relax and soak in the views with a drink in hand."

"Sushisamba is always a hit for Asian dining, with excellent food (think Japanese with a South American twist) and stellar views at its City site. Located at the famed Opera Terrace atop the historic Grade II-listed Market Building, this striking space is crowned by an Eric Parry-designed glass roof. Bold in design, the restaurant offers a host of inviting dining and drinking experiences: from the bar with its ‘living ceiling’, the exposed kitchen and high energy sushi bar, to the terrace overlooking The Piazza below, and the private dining room with its own entrance and terrace."

"While SUSHISAMBA in the City is notorious enough, it's the Covent Garden site that has caught our eye. Not only the place to catch sky high views and serious amounts of sushi, this pretty London restaurant is a sight to behold from the bold prints on the walls and the hanging plants overhead to the fusion cuisine, worthy of any Instagram post."

"Following on from the Duck and Waffle, and also in the Heron Tower but this time on the 38th and 39th floor, is Sushisamba. This restaurant offers a unique blend of Japanese, Brazilian, and Peruvian cuisine. There are delicious sushi and sashimi dishes to enjoy and again, splendid views of the Gherkin."

"For banging food and cocktails with 24/7 views of the London skyline, Duck & Waffle is hard to beat. The 40th-floor restaurant in the Heron Tower serves up plates to rival the view: there’s the eponymous ‘Duck & Waffle’ — confit duck leg with fried egg and mustard maple syrup — for breakfast, seasonal small plates throughout the day, and a late night menu featuring ox cheek doughnuts, salt beef grilled cheese sandwiches, and slow-cooked lamb sloppy Joes."

"If you’ve not yet made your way up the Heron Tower for brekky, you must get Duck and Waffle‘s signature dish when you do. The combination of crispy confit of duck leg and a fried duck egg, both served on a crisp yet fluffy waffle, is surprisingly delightful. It’s topped with a tangy mustardy maple syrup for the perfect amount of sweetness alongside the savoury."

"Prior to London being plunged into lockdown, Duck & Waffle was serving its popular brunch menu seven days a week. The menu’s back, but is currently only available between 7am and 5pm on Saturday and Sundays. Which gives you plenty of time to sample some of the destination restaurant’s signature dishes."

"Though it goes into bar-mode of an evening, this fun, brightly coloured Cuban hangout near Waterloo station is perfect for the kids in the daytime. A dedicated kids’ menu offers a main and pudding for £7, along with a tropical smoothie or freshly-squeezed juice. The yummy homemade desserts will appeal to both big and little ones."

"WaterlooThe vibrant colours and Cuban décor make this a firm family favourite. It’s within walking distance of Waterloo Station and has a great menu that is also highly affordable. For just £6 you can choose from two courses off the kid’s menu along with a juice and a super-sized ice cream sundae."

"Street Feast, the people behind Shoreditch based dinerama, sure know how to put on a riotous and delicious street food offering. Running from Wednesday until Saturday, East Londoners head here to tuck into offerings from some of London’s finest vendors, serving up a smorgasbord of global street food offerings – from pizza to chargrilled seafood, steamed dumplings and vegan Mexican inventions. Well known names include Smokestak, Breddos Tacos and Farang."

"‘All roads lead to a kebab’ says the slogan, and the backpacking Babek Brothers leave no global stone unturned when it comes to sourcing ideas and ingredients for its flavour-packed goodies. These guys have a sense of humour too: they named its veggie riff Nigel Fromage (Cypriot halloumi, garlic yoghurt, fig jam, pickled onions, charred peppers), and you can guess what goes into its Tikka Turner. Did we mention they sell cocktails, beer and wine too?"

"We love the street food at Dinerama just as much as the atmosphere. Not just because they house one of the best burgers in London, but because it’s a great place to hang out with a group of friends in the evening and enjoy some cocktails, too. You’ll find this cool venue in Shoreditch Yard, and filled with a young, fun vibe every Wednesday to Saturday evenings."

"Tucked away in Hackney and Holloway, this 100% vegan kitchen serves up authentic Chinese food that will certainly tickle your tastebuds. Start with the iconic Smacked Cucumber, doused in black vinegar, crushed garlic and sesame oil, or the Meaty Veg and Chinese Chive Dumplings served with fragrant chilli oil. For your main, slurp on the Dan Dan Noodles packed with sesame and peanut flavours and topped with vegan mushroom mince and cucumber."

"Although the set menu created especially for this weekend’s festivities has sold out, their other delicious food will still be available via – you guessed it – Deliveroo. We’ve got our heart set on the smacked cucumber and the dan dan noodles."

"Restaurants Chinese Soho. The original of a Sichuan gang that also includes BaoziInn, Barshu is a refreshing change from Chinatown’s mostly Cantonese restaurants. Come here for prairie tripe, fragrant and hot pig’s trotters, stir-fried chicken gizzards with pickled chilli and other fiery tongue-tinglers – just remember to have plenty of soothing tea on tap."

"Chinatown, like the indomitable village in Asterix, has largely held out against the culinary renaissance that has transformed the capital into the roiling galaxy of restaurants, tasting rooms and trend-infused “concepts” that it is today. To go into Soho, to those identikit MSG joints feels like a throwback to the Dark Ages. Leave it to the tourists, right?"

"You might think Bar Shu – adorned with slatted blinds, latticed woodwork and tasselled lanterns – was a sweet-and-sour honeytrap for Soho tourists; but you'd be missing out on possibly the best Sichuan food in... Top ChoiceBritish in East London"

"Having evidently foreseen its popularity when settling on a name, Dumplings Legend lives up to the myth with an excellent dim sum selection. A lunchtime spend ticking off a list of steamed and fried mouthfuls is a pleasure: the pork xiaolongbao soup dumplings mount a considerable challenge to those that cause four-hour queues at a certain Covent Garden restaurant, while prawn har gau are pristinely folded – particularly impressive for less than a pound per piece. Decor is simplistic, but crisp white tablecloths serve as a pleasing backdrop for a growing mountain of bamboo steamers."

"Dai Tai Fung may have made all the headlines last summer for its long queues in Covent Garden, but Dumplings' Legend is the real deal for an authentic, crazily busy central Chinatown dim sum speciality restaurant. There's a glass-fronted open kitchen where the dim sum are prepared with mesmerising dexterity and all the steamed dumplings are impeccable, especially those mixing minced chicken and prawns. Less adventurous diners will be thrilled with the generous,verdant, vividly fresh chicken stir-fry."

"Try the fried turnip cake (luóbo gāo), stuffed rice noodles (cheung fun) and, of course, plenty of meat-filled dumplings. A glass-fronted kitchen allows diners to gawp at the chefs' magic while it happens."

"This friendly all-day Dalston café bills itself as a modern greasy spoon and has perfected the art of curing hangovers – thanks to its devotion to hash browns and all things porky. Its quirky brunch dishes (available Tuesday to Sunday) strike the perfect balance between wholesomeness and the restorative powers of fried bacon – although they also sneak in a surprising amount of veg, from kale to homemade beans. The ‘Posh Pig’ muffin is particularly good, and the vegetarian options are genuinely decent, too."
