Waterway in City of London, Westminster

Very good cocktails and truffle fries to die for! 💯 Impeccable service, very friendly, Thanks to James for brightening up our evenings the two times we stopped by ❤️

We ate here for our anniversary and it was exceptional. We had the truffle fries which were amazing. The tuna and the chicken were some of the best we have ever had. My only regret is that we didn’t save any room for dessert as I had my eye on a couple of options. The service was very attentive and the atmosphere was lovely right by the fireplace. They had a large party inside but were very accommodating when we asked to sit elsewhere. We will definitely go back.

Welcoming staff. Good value. Clean and pleasant. How things should be done.

Very nice food and feeling smile all people to welcome from Thai people and good food good yummy

The waterway is always a good choice :)

Staffs are amazing , James and the Italian lady Bartender if I'm not wrong Laura.

Great dinner with colleagues. Service very attentive. Menu was removed after ordering appetisers and then brought back for ordering mains “to allow more space to eat” and to create a relaxed environment in which you do not need to order everything upfront. I really enjoyed the fries with truffle, the pork belly bites (very unique and tasty) and my main which was a seared tuna. I asked for a very light cook and I like to eat it almost like a sashimi and it turned out to be a fantastic choice. The waiter also suggested to have the sauce it comes with on a side so I could decide how much i wanted to taste the tuna flavour which for me was a very good quality, tender, moist and flavourful. Good job! Thanks

My first time. I attended a 80th birthday. The food was tasty. Friendly service. I would definitely go back.

Very good food, high quality, tasty, excellent service. An amazing experience!

Nice waterside pub but food was just so-so. I asked for salmon salad, got chicken salad. Staff were bored to death so took some work to get their attention. I would go for drinks and canalside setting but skip the food.

I ordered the superfood salad and paid extra to add hot smoked salmon. The salad was a massive portion and could easily be shared between two. The lemon dressing was exceptional and the balance between sweet and salty was perfect. 5*

Had a lovely summer's evening meal here. Good choice of options on the menu and helpful friendly service. Outside seating was delightful.

If you have any form of intolerance, you will struggle food wise. When you get food, it's small for the price. You are not left alone to eat.

Harshika, who looked after us, made our experience outstanding. There were 6 of us and our small dog. The food was delicious.

The waiter dropped a whole tray of drinks on me, I was absolutely drenched. Missed eating lunch with my parents because I had to go home and change.

We were entertaining visitors from the US and chose to have dinner here. We had a wonderful time. The location is fantastic with great views of the canal and nice open-aired seating. All of us enjoyed our food and the service was excellent. I definitely will return here.

Nice ambience and staff attentive

What a brilliant find This restaurant was just what we wanted on a beautiful day The food was delicious and great service My friends and I will definitely visit again

A big outdoor seating area for drinks and dinner. Staff are very pleasant and helpful. Close to the river, good views and vibes.

Great food and service! Such a nice place find

What a lovely pleasant, friendly place. I am gluten free and the staff knew exactly what I could have without having to fuss. The food was amazing and being able to have a bun with my burger was fantastic. The waiter is a credit to you. Also the location was just perfect!

Smoking is allowed by staff is the eating area ...... do not use the restaurant

Very nice location and amazing food quality, definitely coming back.

Great setting for drinks and excellent customer service from staff, food can be improved some of the dishes were either over cooked or dry however we did have this exchanged as goodwill gesture for another dish.

I visited with my family for a lunch on Sunday 18th Aug 2024. My family had a great time. I would like to call out Lamya for taking care of us at the restaurant, suggesting food to order with a big smile. Thanks Lamya. Food was excellent and so was the environment. Will go back again with my family

A little gem in Little Venice and a great date spot on a sunny summer evening when it’s still light and warm out at 9 pm, the terrace area is perfect! It does get busy so need to book in advance. Aubergine main dish was super yummy!

Food was delicious, it came so fast! I loved their selection of mocktails and the atmosphere was perfect with space heaters, blankets and riverside view. Cozy comfort… and the food reflected that too, with an elevated touch. The vegan options were delicious too, I had the plant-based black rice salad and the bang bang cauliflower. 😋

Very lovely pub by the little Venice. Delicious food, great service. Highly recommend!

I have been wanting to come here for a while after passing it often on my way home from work. The location by the canal is lovely, surrounded by greenery. Unfortunately, the food fell short of expectations. The dishes arrived quickly, which made them feel less than freshly prepared. The pork chop was lukewarm, the gnocchi with pesto didn’t taste homemade, and the sourdough turned out to be toast rather than actual sourdough bread. I would come back for a drink, but not food.

I recently dined at this beautiful restaurant in London, and I was absolutely blown away. The steaks are to die for—cooked to perfection with incredible flavor. The wine selection was equally impressive, complementing the meal perfectly. The service was nothing short of spectacular; the staff made the entire experience unforgettable. I will definitely be visiting again whenever I’m in London. Highly recommend!

I always attend this place regularly. The staff members are polite and helpful, and the food is always fresh and delicious. I highly recommend this place.

I love the food and the atmosphere, also they have great customer services, very family friendly.

Bad pub food completely overpriced

Very cozy place to eat and drink, also Eddy was an amazing waiter. He was very polite and helped us with everything. Definitely will come back here.

Thank you, Romanian Witr She was very excellent and courteous

Adorable place. Pricey but worth it. Nice atmosphere right on the canal. I wish I could take the rice salad I wanted but coriander ruined it for me. Instead I picked the salmon caesar salad. Awesome! Service was good too.

The staff were great. Helped us pick a table that was most comfortable. Were attentive, and the food was good. Would come back.

delicious !!! .. we will be back !!

Tasty vegetarian food and very friendly staff. The view of the water can't be beat. Thank you for being nice to my assistance dog!

As a non alcohol drinker this place has an amazing option for such drinks ; amazing fish dishes and their sweet fried potato is just divine. The location is amazing where you can have before or after stroll The staff are the sweetest 🤗

A great location, especially on the Terrace on a hot summer's evening, it gave us the feel of being on a European holiday. However the food was nothing remarkable for the price and the service was very very slow - we spent a lot of time during what should have been a relaxed family meal and rare time together chasing missed items and looking to catch the eye of passing waiting staff which did spoil the meal atmosphere.

Excellent service. Only stopped for a drink and the food looked delicious. So we enjoyed a glass of wine and Spicy Korean Chicken wings. We will be back!!

Perfect spot for a Sunday Roast. Thank you!

Very nice atmosphere. The staff was very friendly and their choice of gin and tonic were very nice! I highly recommend this spot in the summer!

I loved the restaurant. The service and food were great. We’ll come back when back in London. Unfortunately we were surrounded by large, loud parties with unruly children that made it exceptionally hard to hear and have a conversation.

Nice place for a drink or dinner. Gets VERY busy after 6pm when it’s sunny. To the point the waiters are rushed off the feet and we were told the next diners are coming in 15mins as we were finishing up our meal. When booking it says tables are reserved for 2 hours, technically we still had the table for another 30mins…

Tightly well ran establishment. Service people were on point, gladly making way for us to stop for coffee on busy Saturday pm. Overall very clean and enjoyable place to stop for a quick pit stop.

Our waiter was the delightful Eddie. We were served quickly and the drinks and food were delivered very quickly. The restaurant was lovely and clean and we were given a table with a wonderful view of the canal. Overall, a lovely experience. Eddie was polite, courteous and attentive throughout. Thank you :-)

One of my favourite places to ear when I visit my sister. Great service and attention to detail

Very beautiful place for a quiet meal. Grilled prawns were the best we tried. Staff are very friendly and helpful. Great experience.

Excellent place! The food, the terrace and even the pub. Love everything about this spot which has a beautiful location next to the canal. In summer the place is full of life.

Lovely place in every way. We were served by Andreas who made it evening even more pleasurable. He was fun, friendly, helped us to chose meal & drink. Top notch service

Great place great atmosphere but poor food. They are really trying hard but the British can't do this job. I think you should stick to the snacks.

Lovely little place by the canal. Was here for the Euro 24 finals. The place was full but the service was never lacking. Didn't order much food but the sweet potatoe fries were excellent. The gnocchi not so much. Excellent place.

Lovely canal side restaurant in Little Venice with a beautiful terrace. Very attentive service and good food.

Great ambience and a super night for watching football and chat

Elegant, lovely view, tasty food, good portion, freindly service.

Would go back for a plate of the lemon orzo alone. Nice setting and good food. Manners exemplified in their service 👍

Burgers were a bit dry. More sauce needed inside. however it was generally a nice place with good service.

This restaurant has an incredible terrace overlooking the canal. All the food we ordered was delicious, the service was prompt and attentive and for the location, the price was reasonable. 10/10

Perfect for the summer day as has a terrace and gets evening sun! Service is excellent!

Not great quality for the price. My friend had the same opinion.

The Waterway in Paddington is an absolute gem! There's a wide selection of food and drinks to choose from. It's a very popular spot, so the outdoor seating fills up quickly, especially in the summer. However, the indoor seating is also cozy and inviting. The price is fair, and the food and desserts are all freshly prepared on-site. I highly recommend the prawns and the steak. The beautiful and stylish ambiance, combined with excellent cuisine and friendly service, ensures a delightful evening. Five stars!

DON’T WASTE YOUR TIME! The food was awful; the burrata was tough, the fried ravioli that were supposed to be truffle were dry and tasteless, the lamb was overcooked and seemed to be reheated, the rice and chicken salad had no dressing or seasoning and didn’t come with olive oil or vinegar until we asked, the chips were cold as was the crème brûlée. We asked for water twice and while the glasses arrived the water didn’t. When we shared our feedback with the managers (one woman and an older gentleman) they made excuses, he actually told us that “water doesn’t come to the table automatically like it does in the US”. Yes we are Americans but we have lived around the corner for 12 years. We will never be back which is a shame because the location is amazing and we have shared this review far and wide.

So bad!! We had table and table and he took from us let us drink outside the restaurant! That wasn’t nice, we all had food and drinks .. he said that the table was booked but nobody came ! Sooo lame!

hunt was the worst server, i’ve never encountered such bad service from someone

Absolutely terrible food. I think most items were from frozen or pre made and reheated. The service wasn’t much better. Will never go back. Such a shame for a great looking restaurant and location.

Beautiful setting for warm summer evening. Above average food, great drinks and friendly service.

Fantastic spot by the waterway (you shouldn't be shocked by that)! Fast service and great food.

It’s hard to beat the front terrace, one of the best places in London to eat outside on a sunny day, overlooking the canal. Kid friendly too!

An excellent restaurant, lovely views of the water and superb value.

Welcoming and kind staff. Quality food, well prepared. Cozy environment

Lovely location and ambience. Our food was not really "made to order" - all of the dishes felt pre-made and not even reheated properly (steak was cold, same for the lamb). At least the after meal expresso was hot. Not sure if the location makes up for the quality of the food...

Great product and service in a wonderful setting

Very tasty plates on a decking right by the canal. Great views and ambience. Service quite stressed and a bit hit and miss.

Fantastic evening at the Waterway. Stumbled across it after googling dinner places when drinking at the Warwick Castle. Upon arrival the excellent service commenced and all drinks and food were exceptional. Special shout of to Harshika who waited our table - fantastic service. Look forward to returning.

A lovely place with a great view. I love coming here for a drink in the evening, a simple coffee or sometimes a bite to eat. Everything I've had here so far has been great and I keep coming back!

Lovely vibe really friendly staff. Lovely food

I recently visited The Waterway and had an overall positive experience. However, the only downside was the bartenders, who I feel might not be suited for their positions. The drinks and cocktails, in general, did not meet the expected standard. On the other hand, the food was okay, and the service provided by the staff was excellent.

Only had drinks but arrived quickly and the atmosphere was good and lovely

Fab meal here with my girlfriends. The food was delicious & the staff were very friendly & accommodating. That combined with the lovely spot on the canal make this place a winner. Highly recommend!

The restaurant offers decent food and a pleasant atmosphere. However, the waiting time to place our order was noticeably long, which detracted from the overall experience. If the service speed could be improved, it would be a much more enjoyable dining spot.

Great place to eat. Food always top notch. Lovely surroundings, 3rd time been here when in area.

Lovely setting for early summer dining. Staff efficient and friendly

Lovely staff and great location for a sunny day in London. Great drinks as well!

The outside sitting area is very nice This is the plus of this area The food is not great Large choices of cocktails ( including mocktails )

Disappointed after really looking forward to a meal here. Menu has changed ( granted it does state that on the website) but the choice is poor imo. I ordered pork chop, it was just about cooked and the roasted peppers had the texture of a slug as there was nothing roasted about them. Then comes the service charge no one is aware of and doesn’t state anywhere. How can you justify a service charge when you charge VAT on top? Pork, chicken, kids fish goujons,( which my son said had the texture of a brick) large wine, madri and kids soft drink …..£120 I’ll give this place a miss in future.

Beautiful setting by the canal. Nice bistro feel especially on a sunny day

Excellent summer patio. Food was average but vibe was fun.

This is more like a perfect spot for a kick back with your friends. Their outdoor area have a comfy seating surrounded by greenery and soft lighting.

Michael is the life and soul of the waterway. Popped in for one but we couldn’t get enough of his sense of humour!

Really beautiful spot. Good and atmosphere is fantastic. There isn’t a nicer spot to spend a sunny evening in all of London

Atrocious Crispy Ravioli, poor service.

Fab afternoon meal Very chill Good Service Lovely outside area by the canal

Went for a business dinner. Sea Bass was good. Banana Brulé would have been better warm.

Very nice restaurant. I would recommend it.

Food was good and Andrea was exceptional . Will definetely come back

Beautiful restaurant. Very delicate

Fantastic service and atmosphere We will come back!

Fabulous restaurant with great views overlooking the canal. Well worth a visit!
