The Trading House is a spacious bar and restaurant on Gresham Street near Bank station. Its characterful City setting combines dining, drinks and live music, providing a versatile place for weekday lunch, an evening meal, after work gatherings and larger celebrations.

Small plates draw on flavours from several regions, with arancini, calamari, pork belly, chilli prawns, halloumi, fried chicken, hummus and colourful vegetable dishes designed for sharing. Boards and lighter bowls help groups mix meat, seafood and plant based choices at the same table.

The house hanging kebabs are a signature, with chicken, lamb kofta, halloumi, steak and other combinations served alongside fries, couscous and sauces. Salmon, slow cooked pork belly, haddock and chips, burgers and a vegetable pie provide more familiar main courses for a full meal.

Cocktails, wine, beer and alcohol free drinks make the bar central to the experience, and desserts range from sticky toffee pudding to an edible chocolate plant pot. Live music adds energy during the week, while the whole venue is available for private hire on weekends and bank holidays.

Address: 89–91 Gresham Street, Bank, London EC2V 7NQ, United Kingdom
