Smith’s of Wapping is a riverside seafood restaurant with an outlook across the Thames and a dining room designed to make the most of the view. Floor to ceiling windows give the space an open, bright character, while the setting near Wapping station makes it a convenient choice for relaxed lunches, evening meals and special occasions.
Seafood is the heart of the restaurant’s identity. Smith’s works with sustainable sources and small fishing communities, with fish delivered regularly and prepared on site by experienced fishmongers. This focus allows the kitchen to offer a broad selection of fish and shellfish while giving diners several cooking styles and accompaniments to choose from.
The menu moves from oysters, crab, prawns and smoked fish to grilled fillets, whole fish, lobster and seafood specialities. Meat and vegetarian dishes provide alternatives for mixed groups, while set menus and Sunday lunch add different ways to experience the restaurant. Desserts, cocktails and an extensive wine list complete the meal.
Service and atmosphere are central to the Smith’s experience, with the restaurant balancing polished dining with a welcoming sense of occasion. The river views work especially well for celebrations and romantic dinners, but the varied menu also suits business lunches and family gatherings where guests want quality ingredients, generous choice and a classic London setting.
Address: 22 Wapping High Street, Wapping, London E1W 1NJ, United Kingdom
