No 29 Power Station West in Wandsworth

Firstly, the positives. I couldn't complain about the food as it was exceptional. Now the negatives. Service was so slow. We were a party of 3, so not particularly a big party, but the service was just a poor excuse. Our mains arrived with our empty starter dishes still sitting on the table. It took 20 minutes for our mains to be cleared and then another 30 minutes to order the desert and have it arrive at the table. Save your money, they're hundreds of different places to go with much better service.

There are a row of good restaurants next to Battersea Power Station and No 29 is up there as a good choice for a night out. We visited as a group on a Friday evening and the place was pretty busy with different size groups but no one was so close that it became annoying. Our service for food and drinks was efficient and we were soon tucking into some sharing starters. These were pretty good while my fish main course was excellent being both fresh and nicely cooked. The desserts also proved popular and the apple pie went down a treat. There's clearly some local competition but No 29 hit the spot for our group. We ate inside on the ground floor (downstairs there's a whole different area) but I imagine that in the summer you'd choose to be seated on the riverside terrace. Perhaps we'll return and check it out!

WOW! Our event for over 200 people was a great success because of the team at No29 who were incredible. They could not have been more helpful, flexible and friendly and we so appreciate it. The cocktails and food were a big hit too. We have had lots of positive feedback from our guests, thank you so much.

Getting worse and worse over the years, Dead inside, 2 tables left as not being served for a while, ignored at the counter despite a manager talking to staff

Was part of a hen party for bottomless brunch, was told on sight there would be no non alcoholic accommodations (I’m pregnant). This is very interesting as they have a really good non alcoholic cocktail menu which are all priced cheaper than their alcoholic counterpart but also, I would’ve been happy with soft drinks?? Poor policy

Came for my friends birthday lunch and the food and service was outstanding. The waiter, Oscar, made it a memorable experience!

Such a great venue. Quality food, great atmosphere, and the acoustics are on point. Relaxed and fun vibe.

Ate our lunch here on 15/03/25 and honestly the whole experience was so poor. We have eaten here countless time, and often brought friends and family here if they are visiting but now won't be back. Service extremely slow and food cold and bland. The chicken schnitzel tasted like nothing but store bought dried herbs and the burger was dry. We witnessed the table beside us send a cocktail back and another table send their wine back. We were so starving after the long wait we ate what we could and paid but came away feeling so ripped off. From other reviews that I have read, if you complain about your food here you still end up paying for it so what's the point?

Enjoyed this place! Would recommend it

We got a very good service and amazing drinks from Padam!

Padam made us lovely cocktails! Great atmosphere xx

Fantastic service from Monet, smiling all throughout the evening and was so kind and helpful. Fabulous evening!

Don’t know if it was just a bad day or typical, but service was terrible and bad vibes among the serving staff. Brought us the wrong bottle of wine (then tried to blame me), my wife’s (whose birthday we were there for) main course didn’t arrive til everyone else was finished (seemed like similar issue on next table), asked for dessert menu which never came so our son finished his kids dessert before we could order, then bill charged us for wrong wine (which they corrected), and wrong cocktail served and charged for (didn’t have the energy by that point to complain again). In a similar vein the survey emailed afterwards inviting feedback didn’t work….

Recently, we hired the private downstairs area for my wife's 50th birthday party. While we've visited the restaurant a few times before, we weren’t aware they offered private event spaces. From start to finish, the organization was clear, thorough, and professional. There were no issues or misunderstandings leading up to the event, which made the entire process smooth and stress-free. The celebration itself went wonderfully, thanks in large part to a fantastic staff member named Barbi. She was incredibly helpful, positive, and attentive—nothing was ever too much trouble for her. Overall, it was a great experience, and most importantly, my wife was impressed, touched, and truly happy. We couldn’t have asked for a better evening!

Very understaffed, 15 minute wait for one drink and it wasn't even that busy

Great food, friendly helpful staff and good value. Service could have been a bit quicker but they were very busy so understandable.

The food was okay however portions are very small. The service from the food staff was great but one other male bartender was rude and arrogant with terrible customer service skills. Our first drinks were wonderful but the ones following it were awful and clearly rushed.

Padam el mejor bar tender en el bloque suroeste, lo recomendaría encarecidamente. Si estás en todo el mundo recomendaría encarecidamente, padam tiene un servicio de alta calidad y un servicio al cliente amigable

Really terrific experience, time and time again. We love coming here as a family, the staff are so good and the food is always delicious. Highly recommended.

Excellent service for a party of 18. Very efficient and great value. The ambiance was really good and our waiter , Kas, and the others who served our food were friendly, helpful and fun. Surpassed my expectations!

Wonderful evening!! Gas, you're the best 😊

The lady who served us was good But the sofa is awful, stains everywhere and some leftover food like rice on it too (pic only showing one tiny corner of the sofa so that you can see the dirt clearly, but in fact the entire sofa looks like that) So I asked if we could take another exact same table but on the other side, I was told “no” just one word “no” - great! Napkins aren’t clean either - see another pic Also we booked a table for 5 people, they did give us a round table but it only had one side of sofa for sitting. So I asked if we could have a chair too so that we didn’t have to squish. But i was told “we don’t have extra chair unfortunately” while clearly the restaurant both inside and outside were not full! Till I picked up the napkin, saw the dirt and told them “wow sofa isn’t clean and napkin is dirty too?” They then finally, found me a chair - thank you Food was okay Location was great But I defo won’t visit again due to its cleanliness issue and kinda of not very welcoming staff I would say?

Great place with friendly and helpful staff, and good food. Would be great if they did live music!

Great food and great service, very good value for money and great interior design. Will be bringing my friends/family and anyone I can back to enjoy the delicious treat that is NO 29 Power Station West. Also do champagne by the glass 😍

Familia de 6 . Gran comida y servicio rápido, gracias a Oscar por cuidar de nosotros. Vibración perfecta para nuestra noche familiar 😊

La comida era preciosa. Atendido por Oscar que era muy amable y nos atendió muy bien. Buen ambiente y volvería a visitar.

We didn’t get to eat anything, even though there were plenty of empty seats and a whole bar area were others were eating the female host hardly even checked before saying sorry we have no space for two people. I live locally not that that should change anything, only say that as I have been here many times and to be refused when there were clearly was plenty of space has annoyed me beyond belief.. I can’t see me returning again we were celebrating and was going to order a lunch and a bottle of bubbly.. Honestly so disappointed.

Had a great family meal at the restaurant with very efficient and friendly service from Oscar. Made our afternoon very pleasant!

Realmente lento el servicio (aunque educado y un poco disculpado) , el restaurante era definitivamente drásticamente escaso de personal. Y el menú festivo no estaba disponible unos días antes de Navidad, nos dijeron que había habido algún problema para pedir los ingredientes. La comida del menú normal no era nada especial, especialmente por el precio.

I recently visited No29 at Battersea , and unfortunately, my experience wasn’t great. The cocktails were a major disappointment— lacking in flavor, none of them had the balance or finesse I was hoping for. On top of that, the service was subpar. I didn’t try the food but it looks very nice. The staff seemed distracted, and it took way longer than expected to get our drinks, even though the place wasn’t particularly busy. Overall, I left feeling underwhelmed, and I’m not sure I’ll be returning anytime soon.

From the moment of booking to the last drop of wine our family festive meal for 13 was excellent. I had many a question answered promptly beforehand - with all enquiries dealt with in a professional and helpful manner. We pre—booked and pre-paid the entire food bill and service was friendly and faultless. The turkey dinner with all the trimmings was a feast! Every dish delicious. As were the cocktails and wine. Would absolutely recommend and not hesitate to return. Thanks everyone at No 29 Power Station West!

Nothing special about the place or the food. Not to mentioned I was charged for the parmesan for my pasta dish 🤯

One of the best dining experiences I’ve had at Battersea Power Station—exceptional food, impeccable service, and an incredible team.”

Terrible! Took them 45 minutes to come and take our order. Then another hour for the food to arrive. We went there for a birthday and told the waiter to prepare a small pastry or cake for the birthday person. Towards the end, the manager said the kitchen was closed for an hour and nobody told us about that (hence no desserts). And obviously they didn’t have anything for the birthday person either! What a disappointment.

Gio and the staff are amazing, super attentive and friendly. The food was lovely and they made my friend feel so special on her birthday

Tell me why the whole power station denies happy hour in December but advertise happy hour online

Came for the happy hour advertised on both their website and the Battersea power Station website. Was told that there was no happy hour because it’s December but that they would do it again next year. Employee was very rude.

Fantastic venue!! Booked an area for birthday drinks and preordered drinks - had a great time and the staff were friendly and accommodating! Will be back soon

Tuvimos una increíble fiesta de Navidad en el No 29 , y un enorme agradecimiento va a Vic por hacer que todo se una tan perfectamente. Desde el momento en que comenzamos a planificar, Vic fue atento, servicial y fue más allá para garantizar que todo funcionara sin problemas. Ella se aseguró de que cualquier problema de alergia se abordara, para que todos pudiéramos disfrutar de la comida sin preocupaciones. La comida era absolutamente deliciosa, y el lugar estaba muy bien configurado. También fue una gran ventaja poder quedarnos más tiempo y disfrutar de las bebidas en el No 29 después del evento. Vic y su equipo fueron fantásticos, tan profesionales y acogedores, y realmente hicieron el día especial para todo el equipo. Gracias por una experiencia inolvidable!

Padama was very good he made the best amaretto sour for me and this is my second time the buffalo tenders were amazing if you are a spicy lover.

We had our work Xmas party here. I had in my set Menu - Warmed Char-Grilled Violet Artichoke Tart - OMG so yummy and flavoursome... highy recommend it. - Steamed Ginger Pudding - nice light and delicious.... A happy veggie diner.....

This is the second time we booked the downstairs area for a company meeting. The team couldn't have been more helpful or accommodating. Great space and food too. Highly recommended.

We were waiting a while for food and when it did arrive dinner was cold which they reheated but the food wasn't very good. Cocktails were lovely though.

El camarero nos sirvió fue increíble, José. Cada vez que vengo me siento atendido, me siento como en casa. Bendice a los chicos que trabajan aquí❤️

La comida era media (patatas fritas, comida insípida) y el servicio era muy pobre por desgracia. La comida y las bebidas tenían que ser perseguidas. Fuimos olvidados durante siglos, no pudimos encontrar personal de espera para pedir menús de postres, luego no regresaron a tomar nuestro pedido, y tuvieron que pedir que tomaran nuestro pedido. A estas alturas estábamos tan hartos de esperar que solo solicitamos los postres gratis de los niños; era demasiado tarde para pedir postres para adultos o cualquier café (¡no es que nos preguntaran si nos gustaría pedir alguno! ) Muy pobre y fue vergonzoso para mí, ya que había reservado el restaurante para una comida con familiares del extranjero.

Oscar who looked after us was amazing. Fun, checked on us, recommended a very good rum for me. We had a nice table and the atmosphere was upbeat even if a little loud. My only issue was the Sunday roast pork. It was over cooked so some of the edges were unable to eat due to being too dry. The meat was cut pretty thin for a roast also, will maybe made it drier. I felt the portion of vegetables was kind of stingy too for a roast. Really disappointed and wished I had order a regular main. Thank you to Oscar for making our visit really lovely 👍🏼😊

A bistro just besides famous power station. Food and service were fantastic. Had really great time there as the staffs looked really cool but friendly. They took really good care of you but not bothering at all. By the way, the price was pretty fair which truly worths.

Tuve una fantástica velada de cumpleaños con amigos el jueves en el No 29. Tenía el salmón que estaba delicioso y uno de mis amigos tenía un plato vegano. Lo único negativo fue que no tenían una selección más amplia de opciones veganas, pero no lo suficiente como para desmerecer nuestra salida nocturna. Estuvimos agradecidos por las burbujas de cumpleaños y nuestro camarero fue genial y nos hizo buenas recomendaciones. Buen servicio, buena comida y un ambiente realmente encantador. Los platos y cócteles eran a un precio razonable y era un entorno encantador. No escribo a menudo reseñas, pero fue una experiencia encantadora, así que pensé que id puesto lápiz a papel, por así decirlo, lo recomendaría encarecidamente! ¡Gracias no 29! Anne - Marie

Oscar and José were fabulous, great customer service and made our whole experience!! We will be back, food was amazing too!

Visited on a quiet weekday evening, service was attentive and friendly (Adam & Manager on duty/ didn’t catch his name) looked after us very well! Cocktails and food were outstanding too.

We live nearby, we always come for Sunday roast and we love it. Also want to mention that Gas was very hospitable!

Very rude manager, all other staff we're very friendly and helpful especially Raj and Matthew

Excellent food and great service. Recommended.

We were served by Adam and the team and they were awesome. So attentive and respectful and fun. The food was great we shared a bunch of things between a group of 6 adults and did their 90 minute bottomless cocktails, major recommend.

Lovely meal and very helpful staff. A lovely setting and a fair price.

Great drinks, great food and excellent service. Gas was particularly helpful... many thanks again Gas!

I live above Bar 29 and have lived in the area for years, so I feel I have a good amount of experience with Bar 29. What I will say is that the 3.8 star total on this place is completely unfair, perhaps some of the lower ratings are from years ago before they found their feet. My food there has always been great (remember the price you're paying and the location you're in), the service has exceeded my expectations on every visit I've made this year. Finally, the atmosphere is buzzing and friendly. My only negative comment would be that service at the bar can be very slow at times and I've felt like I'm being ignored, as far as table service goes I've had no issues at all. All things considered, I'd give Bar 29 4 stars with a 5th being earned if they can improve the efficiency of the service at the bar itself. Would recommend for food or drinks!

Great bar/restaurant with amazing views, great drinks and service.

Good food, nice venue, totally under-staffed. Mistakes made with order, food not available (told a while after ordering). Asked for a small side plate for one of the kids. It never arrived so we helped ourselves. Asked several times for things. Not the staff’s fault as they seemed totally overwhelmed.

Fuimos a una cena de cumpleaños y nos sentamos afuera. La ubicación es perfecta con vistas al río y un gran ambiente. El personal era muy servicial. Oscar el gerente ayudó a acomodarnos fuera y continuó registrándose con nosotros durante toda la noche, aunque pudimos ver que estaba muy ocupado. Gaz era muy amable y profesional y parece muy experimentado en el trato con las personas y los clientes. En general fue una noche encantadora que hizo mi cumpleaños especial. Muchas gracias (y por favor, ¿podrías traer de vuelta la hamburguesa de camarón en tu menú pronto 😊) .

We loved the caramelised banana pancakes, and the sweetcorn and courgette hash. Visit was slightly let down by fairly slow service, but it was a Saturday morning.

Tenemos una mesa acogedora dentro en la parte trasera para evitar el sol y los fumadores al aire libre porque teníamos un par de gemelos bebé con nosotros. El personal era muy amable. Pedí un plato de gambas al curry, lo revolví, ¡sin gambas! Pregunté dónde estaban las gambas. Cocinaron felizmente otra comida llena de gambas. Disfrutamos de nuestras comidas junto con los cócteles.

Great spot at Battersea Power Station for brunch and cocktails just in front of the river. Service and atmosphere is great, roomy & spacious restaurant with lots of delicious food/drink options (try the sweetcorn fritters!).

Most awful security man I've ever seen! I was invited to the river bar party on the lower ground floor. The security guy was standing near at the entrance by the toilet. After I went to the toilet I tried to go back to the party. He said " You can't come in here." But another party guest seems like smooth to enter the entrance door after finished toilet BESIDES ME!!! This case is racist I think!! He is looks like bald man between 9pm to 9:30pm on 27th July!

A lovely venue to host events at, with a super helpful team!

Good food and cider. Prices expensive. But it was already cheap.

Glorious Sunday roast - best I’ve had in London 👍 Bit loud though and when the sun is shining through the glass it gets reallllly hot. Thanks

I visited here yesterday with a group of friends to watch the Euros- there was a downstairs area sectioned off for this with reserved seats which was great and well organised. Unfortunately, I was a bit late because of delayed trains but my friends were all drinking downstairs, watching the game and with a spare reserved seat waiting for me. I arrived and was greeted by a man who was extremely rude and eye rolled at me with an extremely pissed off look and said ‘no, there’s no space’ and proceeded to ask if I had a reservation. Once I informed him that my friends were down there and I had a reservation he decided to radio down to the staff who said- Yes, no problem send her down. He proceeded to tell me to go down as if he was doing me a favour and as I walked off, I turned round to see him furiously talking to another member of staff about me/the situation. No apology at all for the reception from him. It was all very unnecessary and not welcoming at all. The staff downstairs were lovely and so welcoming- they escorted me to my seat no problem. Not sure what this man’s issue is but he’s doing a good job of putting people off from returning.

The food was great, but the restaurant was unpleasantly loud. I felt like I was yelling for someone 2 feet away to hear me. Nothing is done to prevent echoing, everything is flat and hard, so the noise bounces everywhere. If this doesn’t bother you, the food is great and the decor is cool.

This was the second visit here. We had a smaller group this time. The service and attention provided by Adam was amazing. He had several large groups to serve at the same time and his attention to ensuring everyone was having a great time and everything was ordered was received and enjoyed! The recommendations from Adam did not disappoint. We asked for the bill then decided on dessert after another recommendation and did not disappoint! Look forward to visiting again! Thank you Adam customer satisfaction amazing

We had the steak, chips and wine off the lunch menu for 18 pounds . Food and wine was lovely and Oscar was spot on. Would recommend.

Excellent service and lovely staff, nothing was too much trouble. 14 of us had a late lunch event. The staff really made us feel welcome, the booking and communication with the events team was super efficient. A nice atmosphere and good food.

We have been several times, we really like the place, the food is good, very good service, the waiters are all very friendly and helpful, normal price, recommended.

I've been here for both brunch and evening drinks, and it's a really nice place. The prices are a bit steep for what it is, but the food is good. It does get really loud (from the music, not the people) for no reason. There really is no need to turn it up so that I can barely hear the person next to me. There's also very limited veggie/vegan options, especially in the evening menu... We decided to eat somewhere else

Lovely food with excellent service, highly recommend.

Matthew was fantastic, you do not get good service like this in London anymore. He is an asset to the team and should be treated as such.

Enjoyed a wonderful lunch here today. Oscar was very helpful and an excellent server. Definitely recommend.

We had a fabulous evening at the Disco House Saturday ✨ all of the staff were friendly, attentive and the the Manager Giovanni hosted us a wonderful night, he was very welcoming, efficient and hospitable! I would definitely come back for some great cocktails and the food was gorgeous, I definitely recommend the crispy squid 😍 sipping our cocktails with the view of the thames, the music was great and ambience! Thank you to Giovanni for making our night extra special ✨✨🪩🫶

One of my experiences was, during my time in the UK. It was absolutely fantastic. I savored every moment of it. Giovanni, the manager was incredibly supportive. Made things much smoother, for both me and my family.

Worst service ever. They gave us a table&sold us the wine. After 10 min the manager came and ask us to leave the table beacuse "was already book". The manager call us crazy and ask us leave. Worst experience ever AVOID. After we left, the manager came and told us he was sorry, but had some "influencers" taking videos, and so he was stressed to find a place for them. Honestly I would not even recommend this restaurant to my in laws. It was horrible.

Great service from Gas! Enjoyed our brunch with family that is visiting and felt looked after and taken care of throughout our whole meal. Lovely place to sit along the river. Thank you!

Horrible experience, manager kick us out and called us crazy people after buying a bottle of wine because the table double book a table and wanted us to leave without an options and without drinking our wine. I feel very sorry for the owner and the place could be managed better. Very poor from the Italian manage himself.

Horrible place. We've been offered a table and then they kiked us out cause apparently the table was booked. They kiked us out of the restaurant even after changing table. After leaving, the italian manager came to explain us why he kiked us out, the reason is that there are influencers drinking there, and they wanted to give a certain image. Amazing... the worst service ever.

First time visiting and it did not disappoint. The service was quick and staff were friendly, the food was hot and tasty. We visited during the week around breakfast time, the restaurant was very quiet it was nice.

Vibing and suave battersea spot x on a sunny day, it’s hard to grab an outdoor seat BUT the stairs in front of the restaurant is a flex and allow you to sit and drink and that made for a fab afternoon. Procès are comparable to central London but go for the vibes, the AperolSpritz, and a sturdy step.

Just stopped for a pint. Outdoor area is nice enough, however gave 4 stars due to the tables needing a wipe!

This place is amazing great service friendly faces, plus great food couldn’t recommend enough.

Had brunch of Sweetcorn & Courgette Hash, added the 'House-made Dingle Dell Ham' - not sure what was house-made, as it appeared like a bit of ham out of a packet. However the Sweetcorn & Courgette Hash was really tasty. Really attentive service.

what a amzaing place. customers service 100%

Love the £10 brekkie deal, available Mon-Fri before noon. There is also a pastry and coffee deal in the afternoon. The restaurant is bright and spacious and offers a beautiful river view as well. There is a bar downstairs, but haven’t been.

Very cute please overlooking the Thames. Amazing venue for birthdays or other gatherings!

Adam was so lovely to our table, he really made our experience so pleasant.

Terrible service, made us feel very unwelcome and had to rush as apparently we should have booked even though there were so many empty tables but they literally kept walking past to make sure we left (all buying cocktails etc) within 30 mins. Will not return and so disappointed as it was a 60TH birthday treat

Amazing bottomless brunch, so lucky to have Monet as our waitress, super attentive and so friendly, wouldn’t have been the same without her! Thanks so much Money

Excellent location, really good food but above all excellent service from Adam, I really felt at home, congratulations for his attention and kindness

Very happy customer, the manager Gas is very professional, attentive and amazing host. We have been seated in couple seconds from the time we arrived, (welcoming smile from hostess); drinks arrived in couple minutes after ordered. All the team who worked that evening made my and my daughter's night memorable. Mc&Cheese from children's menu- recommend to every child: for taste, size and presentation, same as squid starter for me. Thanks to the chefs! My daughter 5 years old got all attention from the staff; despite it was very busy Thursday evening. Amazing experience.

3.8 stars is an outrageous misrepresentation of the quality of food/drink and service here. I came here on a busy lunchtime, the staff were really friendly and really accommodating. After a short wait and a some delicious drinks at the bar, we were seated. The roasts (chicken & beef) were 2 of the best (we agreed) we’ve ever had in London, and we’ve lived here for 2 decades. I couldn’t fault the food, service or drinks. £24 for the roast is on the higher end of a London roast (not by much), but so so worth it for the quality, taste and perfect sizing of everything. Shout out to the red cabbage (bloody good)! Highly recommend a visit if in area. Take 3.8 with a huge pinch of salt.

My wife and i pop in on Sunday for a coffee.glanced the menu coffee and pastry £4.50 not bad.ordered 2. asked for the bill it came to £18.90 called the manager ask why have i been charged £9.90 more he was not pleasant at all he told me what i chose was a weekday menu i said so why is it out on Sunday if its a weekday menu .He pointed out that it did state in tiny writing Mon-Fri would no meet me half way.so 2 plain croissant cost £9.90 Not only but also the 12.5% Service charge is a bit steep. The Managar Horrible Man .

We sat outside at lunchtime next to the river. The service was good and the staff were really friendly and efficient. The meals arrived promptly and they were generous portion sizes. It was quite an expensive meal for the 4 of us, but the location probably dictated that.

Adam is the best! Most brilliant guy and treated us like royalty! What a man. Chicken burger was also awesome, happy me! Keep people like Adam
