Waterfront in Wandsworth

I experienced extreme racism in this place and was told I have to leave without bothering anybody the manager was extremely brash and made me feel uncomfortable if your an ethnic minority don’t go here.

Went for a glass of wine. The place is stunning with nice view of the river and the staff are friendly.

Lovely staff excellent location but crap watery Guinness

I am very sad to say this was a very different experience from the other times we have ate here. We ordered 4 beef and 1 pork belly roast dinner. The beef was so tough that we asked for sharper knifes to cut with, even then it was to hard to chew. On other occasions, the meat had been delicious. The portions were also very small, we were given 1 carrot each. We did ask for more vegetables and we were given more with no fuss. The Yorkshire Puds were over cooked and very dry. On a positive note the staff were very attentive. Unfortunately, because of this we have decided not to eat here again. When you pay so much money to eat and drink, you expect perfection every time.

Really nice, great food, but avoid the mac and cheese!

Visited this bar and had one of the best burgers I’ve had in my life, drinks good, service great…I will be back!!!

Lovely setting on the river. We went for lunch with a number of small children and they were accommodating. I had a well-prepared roast and good beer. Nothing to complain about.

Decent sized Young’s pub right on the river - pretty quiet during the week I think due to a lot of the apartments above and behind it being empty investment shells, but busy at the weekends and great if you get a seat outside on the river. Staff have been good every time I’ve popped down.

Really nice place to sit by the river and have a drink. Staff are attentive. Nice atmosphere.

We had a great afternoon soaking in the sunshine on the amazing outside deck. Services was very friendly and profession. Really liked the big guy Simon, he was really attentive

It's a pretty decent place on the terrace or inside to grab a few drinks or food. The staff were professional but cool 😎. 10/10 .

Was ok until I found a hair in my food...

Food not bad three rating is more the taste, didn't quite like the flavours but that's personal. Service was brilliant, didn't catch names but top waitress helping us choose and find the right table whilst being extremely busy.

Seasonal staff needed for the hot and sunny days. Lovely location and great wines on offer.

Enjoyed our lunch by the river. Awesome venue and lively atmosphere. Food is good and staff were very attentive to our needs.

Really really poor service booked a table for a friend's birthday. Didn't eat so can't comment on the food. Lengthy wait at the bar no table service. Only 1 barman on a hot saturday summer night 1 guy doing dispense so clearly do do table service? One girl polishing glasses 1 a minute. No sign of management and clearly not being run properly what a shame as I work in hospitality and rarely get a saturday night off. Also guy with black cap on behind the bar served guy who jumped the bar even after I said I was next he rudely dismissed me. Thank you to the young girl that was on the floor who noticed what was going on and came back to serve me when her position wasn't even behind the bar. Great venue poor management 😢

Nice pub with stunning views and service Simon was super kind!

Simon is a fantastic waiter and is a great person who is so kind and generous. The best service is from Simon!

Had a wonderful birthday meal with a large group and we were very much looked after. We will definitely be coming back - especially when they sun is out and we can sit on the terrace! Many thanks

Food was quite good and atmosphere was very friendly. Tasty Sunday roasts but the pork belly was particularly delicious!

Seems like our experience yesterday was just like others here. We came into the restaurant went up to the bar and everyone serving at the bar completely ignored us. One person handed us off to another who treated us with scorn and then ignored us when we came back to order. We thought perhaps it was because we had an American accent but reading these reviews let me know it’s a fundamental problem with this establishment It’s very sad because the atmosphere seems so lovely but we will probably never try it again because we were treated so poorly

Encantadora tarde y una experiencia positiva, el personal era muy amable y servicial y había un montón de nosotros! Gracias Jade.

Amazing place to go food is amazing the barman that served me is Simon always happy to help couldn’t do enough for us very highly recommended if you want a nice meal and friendly atmosphere

Nice spot on the water. Blankets outside for if you get cold watching the sun set. Good selection of wines. Can get busy on a nice day

From the moment we arrived, this place captured our senses — not just with the incredible food and drinks, but with its unbeatable waterfront setting that felt like a mini vacation. Nestled right on the edge of the water, the views were absolutely stunning. Watching the sunset while sipping cocktails and hearing the gentle ripple of the waves was the kind of atmosphere you dream about. It set the perfect tone for an unforgettable evening. Now onto the food — every single dish we ordered was flawless. We started with the seafood platter, and wow — everything was fresh, perfectly chilled, and generously portioned. The oysters were briny and sweet, the prawns were plump and juicy, and the smoked salmon was delicate and flavorful. Paired with a crisp glass of white wine recommended by our server, it was the ideal beginning. For the mains, I had the grilled sea bass served on a bed of wild rice with a citrus-herb sauce that was absolutely divine. The fish was cooked to perfection — flaky, moist, and full of flavor without being overly seasoned. My partner went for the sirloin steak. Rich, hearty, and deeply satisfying, it was clear the kitchen puts a lot of care and time into their dishes. The cocktails were just as impressive. I tried their signature waterfront mojito, which was refreshing and balanced — not too sweet, with just the right kick of lime and mint. Their espresso martini also deserves a shout-out — smooth, strong, and with a beautiful crema on top. The bar team really knows their craft. Dessert was the cherry on top — we shared a sticky toffee pudding that was airy, rich, and indulgent without being overly heavy. Paired with a late harvest Riesling, it made for the perfect ending to a perfect meal. The staff were warm, knowledgeable, and attentive without being intrusive. They seemed genuinely happy to be there, which added to the welcoming vibe. Our server took the time to explain the menu, made spot-on drink pairings, and checked in at just the right moments. Overall, this place is an absolute gem. Whether you’re celebrating a special occasion or just want to treat yourself to an amazing meal with a killer view, you won’t be disappointed. We’ll definitely be coming back — this spot has officially become one of our favorite go-to destinations. Highly, highly recommend.

Excellent lunch, best gluten free fish and chips I have had in a long time. Big thanks to Anna the chef!

Delicious food with a lovely view and great atmosphere. Greatly enjoyed the bangers and mash!

Came here Sunday just gone with a group of 40. Everything went so smoothly and my roast chicken was absolutely delicious! Thanks so much for looking after us.

Made a booking for a table of 40. Food was incredible and service was great! Marta and Steven made it such a lovely experience. No hassle which there can be sometimes with large tables! Highly recommend.

Gema! Orestis fue increíble! Encantador y divertido. Teníamos deliciosas gambas, bistec perfectamente cocinado con salsa de pimienta en grano absolutamente increíble. Lo comí después de caramelo pegajoso. Deliciosa. Explosión de los sabores! Mi novio dijo que su brownie era el mejor de todos. Gooey, intensivo con helado de panal. Delicioso! Muy recomendable 👌

Honestly the food is the crowning gem of this place, my family lunch was a delight, highly recommend! Service was on point and the staff were very relaxed in terms of service.

Liked the internal/external seating arrangements. Staff was attentive and very cooperative and fish and chips were amazing too. Thanks!

A very special thanks to Alex for her wonderfully attentive and caring service. Always smiling, always such a delight to meet. Alex clearly loves what she does, and it shows. Thank you. Dr. Singh

Astoundingly bad hospitality. Want to order? Scan a QR code and then *download* an over complicated app full of unnecessary buttons and options. Want to use WiFi to download the app? Gotta give your email, name, postal code, and birthday. Staff acts like you are a burden when you order in person. Croquettes fall apart when you pick them up, food is expensive and takes a long time to arrive, as do the drinks. Finding an employee to help is near impossible. Finding one that seems happy to have you as a customer is fully impossible.

What a spot! Was passing by yesterday and decided to stop for a drink. A great view over the river and the service was impeccable. The brunch menu was too good not to try so ended up staying for the vegan breakfast. The fluffy pancakes were delicious! The chef was also super attentive and came out to check on everything. These guys take pride in what they do. A must visit!

Great food and lovely near the river really enjoyed it

Hi Josie Just wanted to thank your team for a lovely evening last night at The Waterfront- we were really well looked after and the food was delicious - I am looking forward even more to coming on Christmas Day now! Thanks Charlie

Went to the waterfront for Mothers day the food was fab and the staff so helpful with my mum who is in her 90s deffo will be back

Made a reservation at the Waterfront in advance. We arrived at the venue and no one greeted us. It took 15 minutes for the bar staff to address us, despite it not being busy. The hostess treated us poorly. We ended up leaving 10 minutes after we were seated because we felt extremely unwelcome. Would not recommend to go to this pub!

Servicio brillante y comida excepcional. Este es un gran lugar y una experiencia realmente agradable para toda la familia. Volveremos otra vez.

Food quality for price v good but it all came at different times. Waitress was miserable and did not take pride in her job

Such a great venue. Right by Wandsworth bridge on the river. Stopped in for a drink and wound up staying for lunch. Was met by I assume was the manager who greeted us in a friendly manner and even though we were having a drink he took us to a table and took our drink order. Had a lovely table by the window looking at the river. The wine list is extensive and the Albariño was tasty. Decided on the roast beef and pork and were not disappointed. Succulent and tasty. Loads of vegetables and lovely gravy. Staff were excellent. Attentive and welcoming. Such a great venue. Will definitely be back.

Alex always provides us with genuinely good service and overall makes us come back every week. Thank you Alex!!!

Fui a Battersea por primera vez y disfruté de un filete encantador con patatas fritas. El servicio fue increíble, y Anna el Chef cocinó el filete más increíble! Sin duda vendrá de nuevo!

Food and service was amazing. The Steak was absolutely delicious! Anna the chef cooked the most amazing Steak! Would definitely come again 🙂

Shout out to head chef Anna today who did a marvellous job on a busy Sunday. Lovely roast and treacle tart light and delicious. Thanks also go to bar and front of house who dealt with a busy service with a smile and grace. Lovely Sunday by the River!

We celebrated a 50th birthday party recently and had a reserved area in the pub. The staff were great in the lead up to the event and did a great job on the day setting up the area. We ordered some food from their platter menu and the sliders were very well received by all of our party. A good atmosphere and would recommend for anyone looking for an informal area to host a drinks party.

Marta es absolutamente adorable. Acabamos de mudarnos en el barrio y ella me hizo sentir tan bienvenido. Esto se convertirá en nuestro lugar favorito seguro. Gran equipo, comida deliciosa. Muy recomendable.

Marta hizo que valiera la pena con su cálida bienvenida e ir más allá. Vista preciosa del río y almas amables detrás de la barra

I hadn't intended to go for lunch today. I was taking a walk along the south of the river, and the weather began to turn. I came across The Waterfront, and decided to go in for a drink. It wasn't long after I sat down that I started to smell the lovely food from the kitchen... and saw the plates of food being delivered to other tables. I quickly changed my mind and thought it would be a great place to have a Sunday (late) Lunch. I went for the trio, beef, pork belly and chicken! Wow! I was not disappointed. The beef was perfectly cooked, the pork belly melting in the mouth and chicken tender. I also can't fault the vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. I'm so full up that I really should continue my walk... but I think I'll take the bus.

Someone please teach the girl in the pink top and fake eyelashes the art of conversation and, god forbid, smiling. She’s a tad miserable. Cheer up love.

We had a lovely, relaxed, vegetarian lunch . The staff were very friendly and helpful and the food was excellent. All good and a very nice spot overlooking the river.

Favourite pub in the area. Super friendly staff, great food and dog friendly!

Great Guinness and steak. Also front of house is a dish

The it’s very good and comfortable, at the summer it’s very very good outside, I’m really love the food and atmosphere, only the service take a little more time than I was expecting, but just and very busy days.

Great food and service. Perfect for drinks and food.

Excellent atmosphere, service and food My guests and I had a great time . Thank you

Lovely place by the river, the vibe is great inside or out if the weather allows it. The menu is great and with plenty of options. Best place in the area.

Poor experience, a few things let it down when it should be the best place along the river. Went in there on new year's eve as a 5, 3 adults and two little ones. Went in for a drink or two at 4pm, before it starts getting busy. Long story short, the place was pretty quiet at the time and why it's sometimes a good option for a quiet drink. A big table all sitting down to eat and maybe another 4 tables drinking. Bear in mind the time and how quiet it was, the bar staff, some / all drinking, kept turning the music up continually, seemingly having their own party. Slow service, must be four at the bar and all just stood chatting whilst you go up to the bar to order drinks, takes an age for someone to come over and seemingly at their inconvenience at having to serve you. Anyway, music became so loud we had to shout to have a conversation - was genuinely like being in a club (we're in our mid 30s, so hardly past it). We asked one of the passing bar staff to turn it down, where she did, and it was fine. Then another member of the staff walked over to the volume and turned it up louder than before. At this point it was so loud the 7 month old started crying, so we just left. Came out, not exaggerating, to ears ringing. Thought I'd left fabric. It was only about 5.30pm. We do go in regularly and of course with the huge outside area in the summer it's amazing. Service does seem to be a continual issue however, full of arrogant staff that make it clear they're doing you a favour to serve you

My wife and I have been to this pub regularly and really enjoy our visits. It is not cheap, but the position on the river is excellent. In years gone by, it was not very well frequented and it was a bit soulless but that has all changed over the last few years. The management have done a great job to change that as the food has improved significantly since we first started going there. In the summer, the outside seating is really enjoyable and the best tables are not bookable, so it is the "luck of the draw", but usually something comes up. We have had Sunday roasts a couple of times and the beef is excellent - tasty, good meat and plentiful. The service we have experienced has always been attentive but not over bearing. This is not a pub in the traditional sense because it is in a modern building so the atmosphere is not the usual "cosy pub", but it is comfortable and not overly noisy.

The Sunday roast is the best one in the area! The chicken and the veg roast w had were both piping hot, full of flavour and the perfect portion size. The service was friendly and super efficient. Going to be our home from how. This winter!

We booked to go on the second of January, with the £25 deposit but was called back to say that they were closing that day at 5pm. We rescheduled to go on the weekend instead. The food was really nice but we saw a mouse in there which wasn’t pleasant. They have a hygiene issue that they need to fix, especially if they’re handling raw foods like sushi. There were little holes in the wall next to where we sat so we were eager to leave once we noticed the mouse. I felt bad as the employees were really wonderful, otherwise it it was any other place I would have asked to not pay the bill. We didn’t even finish the food as we felt put off by the mouse. Spent £130 on the food. Also The blond lady dressed in white was really polite and sweet. We really liked her she made us feel welcome. I hope she sees this and has a good day!

A lovely experience, really nice atmosphere and great service!

I had a great experience at the Waterfront. Really lovely and welcoming staff, great atmosphere and food. Will definitely be coming back!

Gran lugar para el personal de NYE donde el ambiente divertido fue genial para ver algunos. Tuvimos algunos. buenos especiales de comida y un gran servicio. Gran lugar para cenar y el traslado al barco para festejar en

EDIT: Thank you for your response, however, it is NOT true. Your last order was NOT at midnight. We were there so it is unbelievably rude of you to suggest we are not being truthful. What do noise restrictions have to do with party favours or party hats or balloons? We love this pub, and have been frequenting it regularly for a couple of years. However, we were so disappointed when we went a couple of nights ago for New Year's Eve. We presumed there would be a touch of New Year atmosphere (dj or otherwise) party hats, party favours, etc. A special toast. There was nothing and it was really disappointing. The last call was around 11pm. Really, on New Year's Eve? This is a beautiful lovely pub. Someone needs to take an interest in it however in order to create an inviting atmosphere. Also, bring back the Friday night disco nights?

Lovely staff, lovely food, lovely place!

Quality of the food is very good, a lovely spot to take your loved ones. Definitely on the pricier side, but with genuine views of the river and Wandsworth Bridge. We had the Sunday roast and starters, all delicious and good portions.

Good range of drinks excellent menu and food. Good friendly service seating in a few connectedbut different areas creating a good vibe fantastic outdoor area with river (Thames) views if you’re looking for good sensibly priced food or a civilised drink this is the place

Organised a staff Christmas dinner party here and the service was 10/10. Stephen was really supportive and helpful throughout the planning, he was also really patient with amendments made. The waiters that served us were very kind! Thank you also to the chef who made sure all our food requirements were met! :) A great time was had thank you all.

Stumbled across this place whilst walking the Thames path. Lovely fish and chips and proper pie. Lots of space, great welcoming staff.

Lovely manageress who was very flexible with our booking. We had a great time.

El Waterfront Bar and Restaurant se ha convertido en una de nuestras principales recomendaciones para los huéspedes del London Battersea Travelodge, obteniendo constantemente críticas favorables y calificaciones estelares. Situado a solo 10 minutos a pie del hotel, este impecable restaurante junto al Támesis ofrece una experiencia gastronómica acogedora e inolvidable. Hace poco, cuatro de nuestros huéspedes cenaron allí y regresaron con críticas brillantes, elogiando especialmente las gambas y los clásicos fish and chips. Su entusiasmo despertó mi curiosidad, así que los visité para explorar lo que lo convierte en un destino destacado. A mi llegada, fui cálidamente recibido por Shalom, uno de sus empleados cuya hospitalidad genuina marcó el tono para una experiencia excepcional. Después de presentarme como miembro del equipo del hotel, inmediatamente me recomendó las “gambas mágicas”, que describió como una de las favoritas de la multitud. El entusiasmo y el trato amable de Shalom me hicieron sentir bienvenida y valorada como invitada, y estaba claro que se sentía orgullosa de su papel. Su pasión por su trabajo añadió un toque extra a mi visita y destacó el compromiso de The Waterfront con la satisfacción espectacular del cliente. Pudo ver lo que muchos huéspedes le otorgaron a The Waterfront 7 - tars. El interior del restaurante logra un buen equilibrio entre sofisticación y confort. Decorada cuidadosamente, incluye una acogedora chimenea que complementa el ambiente relajado y ecléctico. La selección musical, que cuenta con una variedad de géneros, crea un ambiente acogedor y sofisticado. Pude disfrutar de una copa desde mi asiento mientras disfrutaba de la impresionante vista del Támesis, ofreciendo una perspectiva única de la vibrante actividad junto al río, desde paseadores de perros hasta parejas que desean un paseo romántico por la noche. El icónico y bellamente iluminado puente de Wandsworth era visible a lo lejos, lo que se suma al pintoresco entorno. Era fácil perder la noción del tiempo, inmerso en un entorno tan sereno y visualmente cautivador. Después de un corto tiempo, Shalom regresó con mi orden. Con una cálida sonrisa, colocó las gambas delante de mí y me animó a disfrutarlas. Su dedicación a un servicio excepcional, junto con su evidente compromiso con The Waterfront, dejó una impresión imborrable. Las “gambas mágicas” sin duda hicieron honor a su reputación; cada bocado era rico y salado, ofreciendo una “sensación dulce” que deleitó mi paladar. Las gambas estaban tan deliciosas que tuve la tentación de pedir un segundo plato. En su lugar, opté por probar sus fish and chips, un favorito británico por excelencia, y fue igualmente impresionante. El plato fue preparado con un nivel excepcional por un chef de habla hispana (por favor acepte mis disculpas - se me olvidó su nombre) que podría rivalizar fácilmente con un restaurante con estrella Michelin. Además del cálido servicio de Shalom, también me atendió Ada, otro miembro del personal amable y atento. Si bien Ada proporcionó un excelente servicio, fue la hospitalidad y la relación sobresalientes de Shalom lo que realmente hizo que mi visita fuera memorable. Gracias a su cocina de alta calidad, su ambiente relajado y acogedor y su excelente servicio, The Waterfront Bar and Restaurant es un lugar que recomendamos con confianza a todos nuestros huéspedes. He compartido mi experiencia con colegas y los he alentado a seguir recomendando esta encantadora joya en el Támesis. Para todos los huéspedes de Londres Battersea y cualquiera que busque una experiencia gastronómica de primer nivel cerca de Wandsworth Bridge, The Waterfront es una visita obligada. Shalom, era la primera vez que te veía pero tus habilidades de servicio al cliente superaron mis expectativas. Ciertamente eres un activo para The Waterfront. ¡Eres VIP!

Went there for Sunday roast and it was not disappointed! So so so good. Hats off. The atmosphere was very cute and homely. Definitely will be back!

I went with my friends for Sunday roast. What a wonderful place! We had sharing chicken . The best roast ever! Friend of mine had Sunday roast pork. It was melting in his mouth. Crackling was amazing. The best vegan sticky toffee ever! Definitely I will definitely come back!

Spent a very pleasant Saturday evening here in November 2024. Food, drink, atmosphere and service all very good.

The best fish and chips ! Nice location overlooking the Thames . Good service too.

Recientemente visitamos The Waterfront y nos quedamos completamente impresionados! Compartimos el plato de marisco acompañado de una botella de Gavi. ¡Fabuloso! El servicio fue impecable de principio a fin. Nuestro servidor estaba bien informado sobre el menú y tanto amable y atento. En general, The Waterfront es una opción fantástica, ya sea que esté buscando relajarse en el bar o disfrutar de una comida memorable. Con su excelente selección de bebidas, platos sabrosos y un ambiente acogedor, es un lugar que recomendaré a amigos y al que definitivamente volveré.

I had today a very nice experience in The Waterfront. An amazing Sunday eoast,the porkbroast was realy decious and the service is very friendly and edicient. I'll return for sure. Thanks guys.

We recently visited The Waterfront and were thoroughly impressed! We shared the seafood platter accompanied with a bottle of Gavi. Fabulous! The service was impeccable from start to finish. Our server was knowledgeable about the menu and both friendly and attentive. Overall, The Waterfront is a fantastic choice whether you’re looking to unwind at the bar or enjoy a memorable meal. With their excellent drinks choice, flavourful dishes, and inviting atmosphere, it’s a place I’ll be recommending to friends and definitely returning to.

This is a special place to me and it is a wonderful place to be. Sitting by the water, getting lost in a place that welcomes you to be in it. Truly a beautiful pub that gives you more than you can think of.

Esperé más de 30 minutos para que llegara la comida - fría, y quiero decir muy fría. Luego tuvo que esperar otros 30 minutos para reemplazos. La calidad de la comida era mala. Al personal no le importó que la comida estuviera fría. Quizás deberían revisar la comida antes de entregarla a la mesa. ¡Asombrosamente pobre!

Amazing pub, lovely view and ambiance! Our server Anna was so friendly and attentive. Would definitely return, especially for a Sunday roast

The service was excellent, with staff who were attentive, knowledgeable, and made great suggestions. Shalom was friendly and very helpful! The food was delicious, and every dish was bursting with flavor. Roast pork was superb! Crispy roast potatoes, delicious gravy, melting pork in mouth with beautiful crackling! Fantastic views! It's one from my favourite pubs in Wandsworth! Definitely I will come back

Had a drink in the Waterfront this evening and very disappointed with the cleanliness and maintenance of the place. Very grubby!! I didnt try the food and wouldnt with the above issues.

Only went to the pub for some drinks and nibbles on Friday night! We sat outside and the staff helped us with the outdoor heating so we could stay as warm as possible. Pub was closing and Alex one of the waitresses was very friendly and gave us as much time as she could for us to finish our beers before we had to leave. Thanks Alex, you are a star!

Nice place. Decent location beside the river. Food was OK. Sat outside. Prices were probably average for a bar in London.

Rude staff, unbelievable, will never go there again

Lovely place by the river serving good food.

Great food and excellent service!

This Nandos at kings cross is very funky and the staff here are always on the beat to serve quick finger locking chicken

Lovely river walk and a much needed Sunday roast beef with all the trimmings. Very good this weekend. Helpful staff and very enjoyable meal and experience

Had a lovely time at the Waterfront! Such a beautiful setting.

Great restaurant..Staff very friendly...Food was also very good...even with more than 10 people, the food was there quickly and still hot..The ambience was also very nice...the guest feels very comfortable there ☆☆☆☆☆

The best Sunday roast in London! The staff are super friendly and great location. Definitely coming back next week with friends!

Hey Stephennn, love the new cards xx

Bit pricey and staff were ok if nit a little strange but can't complain about the service

The seafood platter and the haddock were very tasty. Professional and friendly staff, quite atmosphere and very clean. We will be back with the whole family, thank you!

Probably the best roast dinner I’ve ever had. Sitting in the sunshine with a fabulous view along the river. Good times. Highly recommended

Update- very impressed that the manager listened to our concerns and was very receptive to our comments and said they would deal with our concerns. Well done for following up on this! Please teach your barmaid some customer service skills. Also, how to pull a pint. Mr Young would not approve.
