Bread Street Kitchen On The River in Tower Hamlets

I dined yesterday evening with my family and Ellyes was our waiter, he was so attentive and very kind! Knew the menu very well and was able to help my brother with some dietary restrictions. He had great recommendations regarding drinks and food. We will absolutely be back!

Served by Ellyes lovely man with good knowledge of the menu and wines. Had the burger and caesar salad.

When this was 'The Narrow' it was great, used to go 3 or 4 times a year, bearing in mind we have lived in limehouse for 15 years. Since the rebrand it has been very hit and miss. But our lastest outing will sadly be the last. Booked a table for 5pm, arrived early for a pre drink. Ushered to our table quite rudely saying we had it till 6:30 even though the website says 2 hours. Food didn't arrive until 6 and half of it was missing. Bought an expensive bottle of champagne, no one came to top up our glasses or check on us at all. Food was sub par for the price. Would have been better going to the local Greene king pub. Definitely style over substance now, average pub food for the Gordon Ramsay price! Oh and after we left at 6:40, 10 mins over, there was no one waiting for our table, the place was half empty. Our bill was subsidised as half of it didn't turn up and we didn't pay service (as there was none) but still expensive for what we got! Thoroughly disappointed 😞

Beware of service charge on drinks 2 REKORDERLIG SWEDISH CIDER £20.13 NO SERVICE INCLUDED

Nice restaurant by the river. The food is very good!

A delightful spot with fantastic views. Great food and service.

Found Bread Street Kitchen & Bar (Limehouse) through a YouTube video and had to try the Beef Wellington. It was rich, filling, and worth every penny. We shared the meatballs (moist and flavorful), a fresh side salad with pomegranate seeds, and the Wellington for two. Service was great. Just note it takes about 45–50 minutes to prepare—but totally worth the wait.

Thank you for such a delightful culinary and celebratory experience! I thoroughly enjoyed myself! You know that feeling when a mouthful of delicious food is so tasty the you squeeze your toes in your shoes?? Well I had that feeling and I couldn’t stop smiling! The perfect birthday meal for me AND I got my off-menu Cosmopolitan, made the RIGHT way ( with Cointreau and NOT Triple Sec haha!!) And the service? With the professional and conversational Ellyes, I was in great hands. He informatively answered all my questions, had great timing on when to attend the table, bring out the next course and when to give breathing room to enjoy the ambience. He was attentive, kind and efficient. Thank you Ellyes for such great service. Clearly an asset to the restaurant! Overall, I left a very happy bunny indeed and I’ll definitely be back another time. Oh and a nod to the location…. quite mesmerising to be so near to the water and those amazing views across the River Thames. Well done everyone!

Overall very nice experience! The service was amazing!

I came over with my friends and the overall was amazing and very relaxing! Thank you Saad and Allison for this beautiful experience

Best fries I'd ever had, amazing burger, great Location and superb service - I'll come again for sure!!

Food was incredible, views were beautiful and staff were kind, friendly and helpful. Had a lovely time

After shuttering The Narrow, you gave it the full works: a refurb, a rebrand, a glitzy new name. Gordon’s Bread Street Kitchen Limehouse looked the part - sleek, modern, full of promise. But sadly, it’s déjà vu. The same old problems have crept back in: eye-watering prices (£37 for a 500ml carafe of Chardonnay? Around a 6x mark-up on even supermarket RRP - criminal), service that veers from disinterested to downright fed-up, and food that continues to underwhelm. How are we still getting the famous Ramsay burger wrong after all these years? You’ve poured a lot of gloss on it, but the substance just isn’t there. Feels like we’re on track for another closure just with shinier cutlery.

Great service from all the staff

We ordered for delivery and everything came pretty fast (within 15 minutes). The fish and chips were still hot; was well seasoned but not mind blowing. The sticky toffee was also warm and pretty good. My biggest complaint - WHY WAS THE MAC &CHEESE COLD?! I’ve only seen it cold as a left over and not a fresh dish. It was in the same bag as the sticky toffee, which kept warm, so clearly it didn’t cool down rapidly because of the delivery. If that’s the restaurant preferred serve option, I wish there was an option for customers to choose whether they want it hot or cold.

Ellyes was a great server. Wonderful experience with great recommendations and insight into the fare. Beautiful seating space with a gorgeous view into the Thames

Fish&chip: delicious, minute steak: plate was not hot, nice sauce… happy overall to try…

Went with my sister for a drink and bite to eat and was served by Zoltan. He was so lovely. A fantastic waiter. Very attentive. We had some lovely snacks. Really enjoyed it. Thank you Zoltan I will be back. 👍

Wonderful, river view, great service, fabulous food - chicken curry and chick pea curry.

The experience was disappointing from the start. It was immediately clear that the restaurant was understaffed—no one greeted us at the entrance or inquired about our reservation. Although we had booked a table for 7:45, our reservation didn't appear to be in the system at first. Even once it was located, we still had to wait for our table to be emptied and prepared, despite several empty ones being visible. Additionally, we had to ask multiple times for the air conditioning to be turned down, which was frustrating. We paid the 15% service charge just because the waiter serving us was really kind. Cannot say the same about the restaurant manager.

This was very disappointing. The place was beautiful but not very busy and the staff was not very attentive. Took over an hour and a half from when we arrived to get our food, and when it arrived it was mediocre. My friends steak was very undercooked, we complained and the new was was still undercooked. Would not recommend. Way over priced for the quality of food.

Gordon Ramsay should feature this Resturant kitchen nightmares… First, the food took an hour and a half to come to the table after. Second, I ordered a steak and it was undercooked- I had to send it back. Third, they got my drink order wrong. Lastly, they charged me extra for a sauce that was originally expressed as “included”. DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME OR MONEY

Very quiet on a bank holiday, we had the bread basket & the bread rolls were so hot we couldn’t pick them up & then when we could they were hard, over cooked! I had fish & chips & the chips were not very good, no taste to them, fish was ok, the peas were dry & had been standing for a while, looked very unappetising! I don’t think I would recommend eating here, very expensive

Bland taste on most of the things we tried. The service is great though. Happy people!

Used our virgin experience voucher for the set menu here. We were told after about 10 mins when ordering that there was no steak. Unfortunately there was no other meat option offered so we requested a steak off the main menu and would pay extra. From ordering and receiving the food was a wait, but it felt more like the place was short staffed rather than just being slow as all of the staff were working flat out to accommodate everyone. The location and food was excellent. Yes we had to wait for it (so if you are in a rush this place might not be for you.) But it was worth it when the food arrived, and the staff offered us some discount for the lack in service, so to me that's fair and they had redeemed themselves. I would recommend this place. Yes it has got Gordon Ramseys name on it, but it's just a restaurant like all the others. The service staff and chef did their best and it was a great experience, which to me is very important. Chicken wings were good, steak excellent and it was the best chocolate brownie I've ever had. We will return next time we revisit London. (Sorry I have no pictures of food as I scoffed it!)

Food: not being a fan of fish and chips, I thought a Gordon Ramsey’s version should be outstanding but I was wrong. The same plain taste as in any other place. The Caesar’s salad was ok, I’ve had better as well. Service: very good, super nice host and waiters. No issues with my order, food was delivered fast and efficiently. The staff does a good job. Ambience: nice place, quiet on a Sunday at 6 pm.

Breadstreet kitchen, Limehouse is one of the nicest restaurants I’ve been to, the food, new decor, and panoramic river views are all wonderful Elyeson, Zoltan, Chiara, Allison and all the team provide excellent, professional service in a personable manner, I highly recommend visiting!

Disappointed with food and service questionable

Wonderful venue. Awesome meal. Such lovely staff. Great being beside the river.

I want that restaurant in the United Kingdom, London, England, it is beautiful, this ultimate dream.

I had the cod, which was delicious. The tequila-based drinks were absolutely amazing. Our waiter, Ellyes, was incredibly friendly and attentive. He made our experience truly special.

Came here for a quick lunch and since I wanted to try some traditional British food, I went with scotch egg and a steak pie. I wasn’t impressed by the egg (though maybe it was more about my choice). The steak pie was really nice though. The service could be little more attentive, I would probably order one or two more beers if they noticed I was finished. The restaurant wasn’t busy at all. It was a nice and quiet atmosphere.

Yes, the view is lovely and so is the seating but what's the point if the food and service is terrible?

Took my sister to my next door restaurant as my home overlooks Bread st. Chinnocks Wharf and she was curious.Ordered two glasses of quite ordinare Merlot £35.00. The barmaid said don't blame us.

Great time, tasty wellington. Thanks to Saad to hosting us.

Great food/service and location. Cannot fault the service at all, lovely atmosphere and dining experience. My friends enjoyed it and I would return. Good value for money with generous portions.

A quiet riverside restaurant with a great atmosphere. The prices are a bit high, but I enjoyed it because I thought it was worth the view. The food was okay. It's an even more fantastic place to go at sunset!

Came for an anniversary lunch, arrived early and was no trouble. Staff were fantastic, food was delicious, and the restaurant itself is lovely. Would definitely recommend and return if ever in London again.

Service was great, the building is beautiful, everything is very clean, but the food is just not very good. Like a chain restaurant like Chili's or something. We tried a little of everything, I can say the Scotch Egg was very good, definitely recommend that!

The food is definitely overpriced for what it is

Went for Sunday roast and have to say was disappointed with the meat. Major gristle for a 31gbp plate. Potatoes pudding and veggies were great. Atmosphere is nice, but the greenhouse makes for a too warm experience. Previous experience with ribs and fish and chips was much better.

Beautiful view and delicious burger

Came just for the beef welly. Was phenomenal. Great service too

Food was fabulous, ambience was fabulous, service was fabulous and the setting…. Sumptuous. But none of that compares to the quality of the toilets! Easily, by some distance the best gents lav I’ve visited in an eatery. Bravo to the staff and all involved.

We went to have dinner for my bachelor party and the experience was amazing. Nice restaurant with amazing views. The food was 10/10 - we had a variety of starters and different mains, all of them were great. Saad services was excellent, very attentive and helpful. I will definitely repeat!

A tastefully-decorated gastropub with great views over the Thames and a genuinely relaxed, classic vibe. The food and drinks were faultless.

GLORIFIED WEATHERSPOONS Came here at 7pm on Friday 17th January, only a couple of tables. The place slowly started to fill up and still 3 members of staff serving. The poor staff was rushing around trying to work as quickly as possible. It's understaffed, especially for the price of the food and drinks that they were charging. We ordered 3 starters, chicken wings were bit overcooked and under flavoured. Fried calamari were tiny portion and the cod bites were the better one out of the three. My partner had the chicken curry, which came with 2 pieces of small naan bread, it tasted like the ones you would get from the supermarket. I've had the steak and fries, and the steak was tasty and cooked well. However there were no sauces offered. Forgot to take pictures of the mains, as it took a while to come and was too hungry by then. We ordered the salted caramel brownie with ice-cream, it arrived really quickly, but then waiter realised he made a mistake with something. He immediately took it away and after waiting for more than 10 minutes, it hasn't came back, so we decided to cancel the dessert and pay the bill. Even trying to get their attention to get the bill was near impossible, so after another 10 minutes. I just lost my patience of waiting and walked to the lady and asked for the bill. It does offer a nice river view of Canary Wharf and Rotherhithe. But still I won't come back, as it's just simply a "Glorified Weatherspoon with a view"

Nice location, service slow but friendly. Expensive for what you get .Food was good but not great .

Food average had roasted cod lacking in flavor in my opinion could have done with the basics salt and pepper potatoes no flavor until you hit the onion.starters tamarind wings were good as was the sundae both flavour some

Great food, great service. Lovely view of the Thames 🤩

Thankyou to Ellyes, great service

Ellyes and Saad were exeptional! They recomended the vest drinks ever!

Ellyes and saad were amazing took care of us. Great food and recommendations, definitely making this a great experience.

Great location but more than an overpriced gastro pub menu!

We had a lovely experience, the location and view are amazing by the waterside. Good food and good service, will go back!

Wonderful lunch, great service. Thank you

Celebrated our 1 year anniversary our 1st time. The place looks first of all amazing with view on the Thames. The waiter who looked after us was the best so welcoming and gave us the best table! Thank u Ellyes. I even asked for my favorite cocktails which was not on the menu and Ellyes was like "of course we can make it" it's very rare to find a restaurants who just look after their customer like this ! I ordered the smoke cod and it was the bed fish i ever had melting in my mouth! My partner ordered the steak and even bite his lips coz the food was too good ! The restaurant was getting empty and about to close but our drinks was not finish but we were never rush to leave and were even given the time needed to enjoy our time. We didn't order dessert as we were too full but we will definitely come back and try that !

Went for an early dinner, and loved every single bit. Was just a shame they were out of beef wellington, but I’ll return some other time to try it. Was a bit cloudy, but that’s on UK weather, but the view for the river it’s still spectacular and Jowita was absolutely amazing.

Awesome We received great service from Elliott ,very professional, we enjoyed the experience The Beef Wellington experience was excellent

Visit February 14 for Valentines Day. Very beautiful decor, the restaurant being on the banks of the Thames. Warm welcome, tasteful decoration too bad the waiter forgot our aperitif.. we got the dishes straight away.. Bourde was well "caught" by one of the managers who kindly offered us two glasses of wine. Apart from this small problem, good service. We had the butter chicken and the mushroom canelonni. It was incredibly good. The butter chicken is strongly spicy just the way I like it. The cannelloni are deliciously made. Small disappointment with the desserts. 4 à la carte desserts including 3 ice creams. We're not big fans of ice cream. Especially in February at 3 degrees outside. I recommend this restaurant for a romantic evening on the banks of the Thames.

Very expensive music to loud. Great view but the food wasn't the best

Really good food and service from the amazing Saad. He guided us through the whole evening and we receive the best service ever. The restaurant has an amazing view from the Thames and also the place looks amazing, a really good vibe. Highly recommended!

The setting and service is excellent here. The food is good, just would like to see a fresh fish option replacing the number of beef options (although the latter is Mr Ramsey's signatures). You'll not be disappointed with the combination of the 3 elements to enjoyable and good quality dining. I must also say a huge thank you to a couple of staff members (Alison and Saad) who are such a credit to the restaurant services.

Sublime place. Certainly experienced the finesse of Gordon Ramsey and the chefs talent. The staff are top notch people, specifically Elleys and Alison

Really nice and relaxed even when you're on your own. X

I enjoyed the flat iron steak. Our waiter Elyes was funny and helpful, he made the experience.

Passed this pearl on a day out taking in the sights in London. Fairly priced for a Ramsay restaurant, so the lads decided to fill our hunger with a riverside view. The portions were a bit too big for our danish appetites (only 2/6 finished their portions), but the atmosphere was great and the food delicious. The food took too long to arrive, but our waiter, an american, was superb - so the experience was saved. The reciept said his name was Ellyes(?), but anyway; he was great and very attentive. Will consider a revisit.

Incredible experience, will definitely be returning. My mother & I enjoyed 2 courses from the seasonal set menu, I had the soup (delicious) and the chickpea curry (comforting, and the long cosmos that came with it. With a beautiful view & exceptional service I couldn’t recommend more.

Love this place and i come every so often! The food is unaparallelled and the atmospehre - stunning! Last time, i had amazing sevice from the waitress Berzune. The receptionist Greta was the friendliest person and really went above and beyond to make our lunch at Girdon Ramsey the best experience! Massive thanks to both and compliments to the chef!

Everything was great, the chicken Wings was seasoned great alongside a dry aged beef and a molten lava cake as desert. Everything was amazing and would definitely have been a daily visit if it was not for the price which is pretty good for what you get.

Ellias was an awesome host, good food and a great evening!

Elyes is the best waiter I’ve ever had in my life. He deserves a free beef wellington

Ellyes was a gent, despite James goading, great food and great hospitality!

Amazing food, warm and welcoming service, and stunning riverside views! A perfect spot for a great meal with a fantastic atmosphere. Highly recommended!

A cozy restaurant set on the banks of the Thames with a beautiful view. The food was amazing especially the spicy tuna tartare !! Steak was not as good because it was well done, our mistake when we ordered. The chips were yummy though. The fried cod bites were delicious too.

I always watched Gordon Ramsey's shows so I wanted to see and taste his food, and have to say it was a good choice for Sunday lunch. Can't say brilliant but really good. And loved the view too.

We had Sunday roast today and the service from Ellyes was friendly and he made us feel welcome. If you can, choose a round booth with a fabulous view of the river. The chicken, cabbage & carrots were our favourite. And save room for a brownie & caramel ice cream :)

Me and my husband booked Bread Street Kitchen for new years eve and were very excited! The location is lovely and it has a very cozy atmosphere. When we arrived we asked if we could sit on the terrace and the server kindly said she would check if there was space. In the meantime we took a seat at the bar to get a drink. We sat there for between 5 - 7 minutes and there was only one bartender working (odd for new years eve). He did not ask what we would like to drink until our server came to take us to our table. We managed to order 2 pints and were told these would be delivered to our table. After we sat down our server came up to us after a few minutes and asked what we would like to drink. We mentioned we had already ordered at the bar but our drinks had not arrived yet. Her response was to say it was a busy night. I don't think this is acceptable on new years when it is clearly due to a failure to plan properly. 2 pints should not take 10 minutes to recieve. We then ordered a bottle of wine but our food arrived before the wine and we had to mention it a second time to our server before it arrived. The women's toilet also completely ran out of toilet paper and I had to go to a server and ask for toilet paper. I was then handed a roll and took it to the toilet myself. The food was fine, but when you charge nearly £30 for a burger I expect the service to be better. It was also new years eve and it didn't seem like any additional effort had been made. Would not return.

Incredibly average food for the price. 20% service charge and then they ask for another 20% as a tip on top😂 comical. Tipping is for exceptional service not for average service

The setting was very pleasant. My son has coeliac disease and the menu did not state which dishes had gluten in. The waiter was not very knowledgeable and kept having to go off to discuss with chef! He had very limited choices, not even the fries, and it’s the first restaurant I’ve come across and the brownie contains gluten! Overall our food was okay but we won’t be returning. Expensive for what you get!

Came for late dinner with my girlfriend, staff was welcoming and the butter chicken curry was delicious. Special thanks to our amazing waiter Jan

Not recommended: good location but loud; service slow; my dish of macaroni cheese tasteless and pretty inedible, others' dishes rated OK to fair; bill c.£40 per head too expensive for what we were served.

I came to this place with my family for a Christmas day and we liked it very much. The food was excellent and the hospitality of the staff as well. Special thanks to our waiter Jan who looked after us. My recommendation is their beef wellington!

Good but a little expensive for what you get

UPDATE: I came here on Christmas day 2024 and was served by the nicest and sweetest waitress named Greta, props to her for making our Christmas special! Cheers! - I've been at the previous restaurant, the Narrow, plenty of times yet I am LOVING this revamp! The menu is very similar, delicious British food, and there's a great atmosphere. The outside terrace seems much more insulated and it looks all new and beautiful. The service was efficient and both the receptionist and the waiters have been very warm and welcoming. I am hoping these standards will be kept up, because if so I am coming back again and again! Well done Ramsay and team!

Outstanding brownie and Carmel ice cream. Delicious steak and ale pie 🤤

Great vibes for a drink Xmas day , great cocktails , special mention to Ciara ? Lovely Italian lady behind the bar she was fantastic!

We loved it. We had Greta as our waitress and she was just incredible. She made our whole experience so enjoyable and memorable and served us the amazing food on the Christmas menu. Thank you Greta (she deserves a raise)!!

The food tasted good but the portion size of my main course which was turkey with all the trimmings was very disappointing.

Great atmosphere and service. Luke was an incredible server

Luke is a God among men. I hope that as medical technology improves that he is able to live forever and continue to make the world a wonderful place to live. My expectations might be a little high, but I'd be satisfied if he got paid a lot more money

Our server, Luke was absolutely wonderful. He was very attentive and took care of everything we asked for. I fully enjoyed every aspect of the dining experience. The sticky toffee pudding was particularly delicious.

Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmare - went to the Limehouse restaurant for our compact Christmas party on Friday afternoon. Seemed to us like that had ran out of the steam from the day before and didn’t seem interested in looking after us. Poor wine selection with desired options not available. The ones that were available had low stock. One of our party is coeliac but when asked for a gluten free menu this wasn’t available. Instead the server ‘well you can have this without this’ etc etc. Not good enough. We ordered two steaks that were served to the wrong people. Sides that came out late and generally the wait staff did not seem interested in the slightest. To top it off at the end of the evening we asked for 8 Baby Guinness to only be told that they had run out of Kahlua. Really not a good experience for a restaurant carrying such a good reputation and name.

This restaurant boasts a fantastic location, amazing food bursting with flavor, fair prices, and a welcoming, attentive staff. Truly a dining experience to remember!

Went for a dinner and drinks with my husband. I was really happy to find a vegan option, the burger was outstanding. It was our first time at one of Ramseys places and we were pleasantly surprised. The staff was really nice as well. We have been taken care of by Jan, so special thanks to him, everything was perfect. Will come back, when in London

The location is great, some of the food was good but overall super underwhelming. I had the famous Ramsay Beef Wellington and found it quite bland (not sure if they even wrapped it in prosciutto/parma ham, but it could just be their recipe). I found that the calamari was pretty soggy despite being one of my favourite starters. The scotch egg and desserts were good (had the brownie and sticky toffee pudding) so no complaints there. It ending up costing just under £180 for two of us for 2 starters, shared main for 2 and 2 desserts, no alcohol. This was the cost after I noticed that I was accidentally charged an extra £10 for the beef wellington (initially charged £120). Our bill also included a 15% gratuity, which I thought was a bit outrageous as we're not Yanks. Even though it's "optional" it's not really in good faith to not pay it. Anyways, I don't think that I'd go back and honestly wouldn't really recommend going there for dinner and getting the beef wellington. Staff were friendly enough though. I think a fair price to have paid for my evening would have been about £100-£110 in complete honesty.

It's a great location with a wonderful view and very nice food

Very unsatisfactory- it appeared to be chaos when we arrive- we waited for 10 minutes for someone to take us to a table then left and when to The Grapes pub which was warm, cheery and with a better river view

Underwhelming food, overcooked meat, cold starters… Atmosphere good.

Great lunch time! Celebrating my friend graduation today and Bsk Limehouse is between one of my favourite places! Thanks cheff Eorela and the team!
