Afternoon Tea at OXO with a view of the Thames! Fantastic service, friendly staff, chatty but not too chatty. The food was fantastic, we had a mix of veggie and regular and each piece wa sensational. Roast beef in Choux pastry was unbelievably good….melt in your mouth! Great views from the terrace, worlds away from the chaos below. A lovely treat!

Staff are very professional and attentive. Views are amazing, food is good. They have to close the outdoor area at 10 because it's a residential area and then the music gets loud indoors and it's not my scene but leading up to that it's a great place to watch the sunset while having a drink and a bite to eat.

Ordered a 3 course meal (with a bonus spritz! - can also be a mocktail) here and our experience was great overall. We were greeted and the staff escorted us to our seat with a good view of the city. Everything was value for money. The portions per course was generous. Personal favorite was the sardines as appetiser and pork belly for mains. Also the staff was able to accommodate our request regarding the birthday dessert. Many thanks!

Had lunch at OXO Restaurant and overall it was a nice experience. The views are definitely the highlight, especially if you get a table by the window. The balcony is also great for taking really nice photos overlooking the river and city skyline. The staff were all very friendly, welcoming, and attentive throughout the meal. However, service was quite slow in between meals. We went for the set lunch menu and while the food was good, the portions of the mains were quite a lot smaller than expected. It felt like you’re mainly paying for the location and views rather than the quantity of food. That said, the atmosphere and scenery do make it a memorable place for a relaxed lunch or special occasion.
