Butlers Wharf Chop House & Tavern is a British restaurant at 36e Shad Thames, set beside the river with views towards Tower Bridge and the London skyline. The historic warehouse surroundings give the dining room and terrace a strong sense of place.
The restaurant is a modern interpretation of the Gastrodrome associated with Sir Terence Conran and the Victorian trading history of Butlers Wharf. Its kitchen centres on British steaks and seasonal dishes, connecting traditional chophouse dining with a contemporary riverside setting.
A dedicated pudding menu carries the British theme through dessert, while the bar menu suits a more casual visit. Wine and cocktails accompany the food, and seasonal terrace drinks make the riverside tables especially appealing when the weather allows.
Sunday brings a separate roast and sharing menu overlooking the Thames. Private and group dining spaces can accommodate business lunches, client dinners and celebrations, while smaller tables work well for anyone who wants a leisurely meal close to Tower Bridge.
Address: 36e Shad Thames, London SE1 2YE, England

Steaks
An Regenerative Beef Story: Reared by our regenerative butcher farmers; a carbon negative steak. Having calculated the footprint of this cut, we have partnered with the ‘Not For Sale’ movement to fund a reforestation project in the Amazon, which both captures carbon and takes potential victims of modern-slavery, out of danger, by giving them a livelihood. For every ethical rib-eye steak sold, we will donate £1.50 to the ‘Not For Sale’ movement.
