Best Restaurants, Must Try Places in St Brides

"What: Sky Garden may be known for its lush greenery (the perfect backdrop for an impromptu photoshoot), but its sprawling views of the capital are also worth a mention. The Sky Pod bar, which isn’t separated from the rest of the space, allows guests to stand around admiring the views or pull up a chair to rest their legs. All the usual drinks can be found here (including a selection of signature cocktails), while the food menu features sharing platters of charcuterie, seafood or dessert."

"A magnificent three-floor space, Sky Garden hosts two of the most exclusive rooftop restaurants in London: Fenchurch Restaurant and Darwin Brasserie, and two exciting rooftop bars: Sky Pod Bar and City Garden. Sky Pod Rooftop Bar is open all day from early morning coffees, through to lunchtime bites and afternoon drinks, while at night it comes alive with music, lights and cocktails.skygarden.london"

"Set atop 20 Fenchurch Street (aka the Walkie Talkie building), Sky Garden is the highest public garden in London. Amidst a lush urban jungle, it offers stunning 360° panoramic views of the city. The unique setting and spectacular views easily make this one of the most Instagrammable places in London."

"Like it’s taller sister Duck & Waffle, the spectacle of the iconic SUSHISAMBA Liverpool Street begins from the panoramic glass lifts, which whisk you up to the 38th and 39th floors of the Heron Tower where the restaurant is located. It boasts one of the highest outdoor dining terraces in Europe, but during the winter months you can admire the views from indoors thanks to the restaurant’s three glass walls. A glamorous New York City import, the menu fuses together Japanese, Brazilian and Peruvian cuisines."

"Peruvian and Japanese cuisine have a well-known partnership, but at Sushisamba, the Brazilians are joining in the party too. You’ll find an El Topo salmon nigiri served with jalapeno and melted mozzarella, and a kobe steak with churrasco among the larger dishes. The sushi here, of course, comes with a view at the city location, where diners can enjoy the fruits of the 38th and 39th floor spot in 110 Bishopsgate."

"The second venture following the City site, this West End restaurant offers a unique mix of Brazilian, Peruvian and Japanese cuisine. When it's not hosting a swanky celeb-filled party, head to Sushisamba for leafy decor and beautifully plated cooking."

"Possibly the best known of the City’s skyline-skimming restaurants, Duck and Waffle boasts not only 360 degree views of London, but also 24-hours-a-day to enjoy them in. The restaurant welcomes diners around the clock, allowing them to tuck into its eponymous dish – a confit duck leg and fried egg on a waffle with mustard maple syrup – from sunrise to sunset. Views of the Gherkin, a distant Canary Wharf and more are on hand, but be sure to sit near the window – it’s a little tricky to see its famous views from the centre of the dining room."

"It may sit just two floors above flashy Sushisamba, but the vibe at Duck & Waffle is far more relaxed (although it still boasts the same enviable views). Open 24/7, Duck & Waffle deals in upmarket comfort food, which means you can enjoy the likes of bacon-wrapped dates, a warm savoury doughnut filled with ox cheek, and of course, the eponymous dish, which sees waffles topped with confit duck leg and a glossy-yolked fried egg."

"Look, the only club we’ve ever been interested in joining was Brownies and that was when we were in primary school. And also, that was only because we thought it would purely involve baked goods. But then The Treats Club came along with their marshmallow fluff, and their raspberry ripple cheesecake swirls, and we realised that this was absolutely a club we want to be a part of."

"There’s something about food, stuffed inside other food, that gets us inappropriately excited. It’s almost as if we’ve been conditioned to click ‘add to basket’ whenever we see words like ‘Nutella fudge brownie stuffed doughnuts’. And The Treats Club Dessert Bar in Netil Market is serving up all sorts of stuffed sweet treats."

"If you are after some freshly made cocktails and a wide selection of other drinks for everyone to enjoy. Known for being a Mexican restaurant you could easily start the night here with some food and then have a few drinks before exploring the rest of the bars Windsor has on offer. There are also a wide range of Mexican beer and tequilas!"

"Your independently owned local Mexican Restaurant serving your delicious Classic Mexican Favourites, Nacho’s, Fajita’s, Burritos with some tasty vegetarian and vegan options. Mexican Beers, Tequilas and our famous Charley’s Margaritas. Open Thursday to Saturday evenings."

"For a more modern and economical option, try the Amba Hotel Charing Cross, which provides minimalist yet classy rooms throughout its refurbished property, a historic Victorian London hotel. Additionally, the Amba just might be the best place to stay in London for walking as numerous attractions – including the National Gallery, Trafalgar Square, 10 Downing Street, and Covent Garden – lie just steps away."

"Berber & Q fans will know the restaurant for its slow-cooked meats, but a largely vegetarian brunch menu shows a different side to the barbecue restaurants talents. There's just two items on the menu: Middle-Easter favourite shakshuka sees poached eggs swim in Spanish-influenced piperade sauce with feta and chilli, while The Full Israeli — for two to share — is an enlivening platter of hummus, honeyed feta, boiled eggs, avocado, roasted beetroot and much more. Those craving a meaty morning can add merguez sausages on the side, while the restaurant also offers its full lunch menu alongside."

"Those greasy tree trunks of unidentifiable meat that are so appealing at four in the morning. Berber & Q Shawarma Bar focuses on delicious spit-roasted lamb and rotisserie chicken served with rice, pita or on a sharing board. Sides include pickles, confit potatoes, blackened aubergine and sauce comes in the form of their house-made ‘Yemenite Dynamite’, tahina, or toum."

"This is the perfect place for sharing a romantic meal for two. Prepare to feast though, this place is *all* about the food. The menu focuses on Middle Eastern dishes inspired by the café culture of Tel Aviv..."

"Gardens emerge in the unlikeliest of places, including this tropical beauty atop a railway station. Crossrail hasn’t quite reached Canary Wharf yet, but this stunning spot is open for business—as is the adjacent street food hall!. COVID-19 UPDATE: Crossrail Place Roof Garden is open 8am-9pm daily."
