About this restaurant

  • Good for business meals
  • Great for scenic views

Inspired by the Golden Age of transatlantic travel and designed under the creative direction of visionary Tom Dixon, Sea Containers at Sea Containers London offers a modern yet casual dining experience in an informal setting alongside the River Thames.

The menu celebrates seasonality and ingredient-led cooking, offering a selection of small and large plates designed to be shared. Taking from Mediterranean influence, we use carefully and locally sourced produce to create a menu suitable for any occasion.

Serving breakfast, lunch and dinner daily and offering a bottomless Bloody Mary or Prosecco brunch on the weekend, a variety of small plates, sharing dishes and classic comfort food is available as well as more formal feasting options.

    My 3 guests (family and friend) had a nice dinner starting fairly early 7pm on a weekday following afternoon theatre. We shared starters including fish tacos and smoked salmon which were all tasty. Diverse mains of pork chop, bone-in sole and mushroom pie were also appreciated and amply portioned. There was a bit of a lull between the starters and mains but our waiter took noticed and followed up. A good and convenient place to dine when you are out on the South Bank.

    On my reservation, i made them aware that there were people with alergies and intolerances, even though they took that into account, they were not sure if certain food had dairy on it. They had on their menu (vg) which they said it was vegan but they said this particular food had dairy but we then tell the manager that if it said vegan it should not have dairy, she was not understanding what we meant in terms of if in the menu you put vg as vegan when other restaurants make vg as vegetarian and ve as vegan. It was resolved at the end but it took some time for the manager to accept the issue. I have been to the restaurant few times and i had a good experience. This time i was there with my family celebrating a family member’s birthday and it wasn’t as good experience as i expected. Driks took long to get to our table and we order 2 bottles of wine and always had to ask the waiter to get us the wine. I think they were understaffed.

    Good vibe in the restaurant. Brunch was very popular. Staff were attentive and kept our guests' glasses topped up with prosecco. However, ordering a charcuterie, you expect more than one meat and the chicken in the fried chicken and waffles was a little pink in parts. That said, it was a fun meal.

    Food very average for the price. Flay breads contained the smallest amount of topping possible - goats cheese almost invisible!

    Awful service, with a slow running kitchen. We were one of the first tables for lunch and yet a couple of our dinners didn't get served a cheese toastie until an hour later. Waiters were shouting at members of our party and the whole experience was chaotic. Even trying to pay the bill was an enduring trial.
