Fernando RevecoJune 3, 2017The view and the place itself is amazing. The garden has become a must see in London. If you want to add a diner experience Darwin is the less expensive option. The food is good quality. £40 each.
Felwa M.💎March 30, 2017Yummy breakfast with a spectacular view where you can see the beauty of london 💖🇬🇧. Eggs Benedict so delicious 😋
Michelle WilesOctober 13, 2016Yummm. Kinda pricey but the views are incredible and the bread and wine selection are top notch. Vegetarian risotto was good, cod one looked better
- Gretchen MurphyJune 16, 2019At the top of the “walkie talkie” building - make a reservation here to skip the frequent line for the Sky Garden. Pricey but worth it for a special night out!
Jack StockerJuly 25, 2021Always good to visit the Sky Garden. Brasserie fairly expensive, but a) it’s Central London and b) views! Recommend the Salmon / Egg / Rye as pictured - very good.
Hope TeeSeptember 13, 201636th floor in the sky garden. The seating is great you can see the beautiful view from almost any and every table. Not so much variety in the menu, tried the risotto and Loved it 👌❤️
M. D.July 31, 2017Beautiful view by the window.. coffee and desert is average! But the Pastrami Smoked Salmon is so delicious, it's a MUST for smoked salmon lovers.
Xanthi7March 6, 2015Excellent food - loved the chunky fries, one of the best hamburgers I've had in London, excellent risotto, a bit slow service. Reasonable prices for this kind of setting. Amazing view!
Kanari K.May 27, 2015Spinach Tortellini, Fish & Chips, Grilled Sea Bream. Great service, music & ambience👌👌👌
Jos JonesJune 7, 2018Such a lovely place! Waiter was really lovely and food was ace 👍🏼 recommend the fish dishes, but some of the cocktails are hit and miss.
Ana VanHullMarch 2, 2015Everything was delicious but specially the prawn cocktail it was so good, very tasty and fresh! Needless to say the views are breathtaking!
AmroFebruary 20, 2019The food was delicious and beautifully presented. The view was unbelievable and the atmosphere was exactly what a couple needs for dinner 💞
Jason HirstFebruary 19, 2015Phenomenal brasserie, can't find any faults. Average prices for London with above average quality, will 100% be going back and definitely recommend to others!
- 10things • city guides by local expertsFebruary 3, 2016If you haven’t guessed already, I love to dine with a view – and Darwin, 36 floors up in the Walkie Talkie building on Fenchurch Street is a vista to blow your socks off. Pitch up at the Sky Garden.. Read more
WhennoufeatsSeptember 7, 2017Buffalo mozzarella, Fish & chips, Penne pasta, Gnochi, Lamb rump, Forest flower and Pink petal
Faisal Al-BesherOctober 29, 2019Go for the starters & stay away from land dishes we try the lamb chank & Sirilion steak both was salty .. tartare steak & goat cheese was good by the end its all about view not taste
Hisham AlghanimNovember 17, 2019We had a lovely brunch, beautiful variety at the menu the view it’s out of this world
Jordi LlobetJune 22, 2015Amazing food, I recommend the steak. Wine list was good as well. Very friendly and helpful service. The views are beautiful. Expensive.
Chris R (thechristophe)September 20, 2020Great service, nice setting and vegetarian and vegan breakfast options 👌🏾
Pascal LooseAugust 2, 2015One of the best views of London even at night, which is best enjoyed with an equally astounding dessert and cocktail.
Lewin Higgins-GreenFebruary 21, 2016Great value and fantastic quality Sunday brunch with unlimited starters, deserts and bloody marys!
SılaNovember 1, 2017I think this is a very standart place to dine, the only point is Skygarden's view. Don't expect much and have a nice evening. Food, drinks and ambiance are not the best but above average
TheBigGayAlMay 11, 2015One of the best views over a Sunday lunch in London. The ribeye roast was incredible!
Eli DumasNovember 15, 2016We went to brunch on a Sunday so it was pretty crowded. The food was good but the service not so. The sound of conversations was annoyingly loud. Its location is not worth the price.
Stavroula KonidariFebruary 23, 2016The view is fantastic at night. The chicken and avocado salad was good but lacked avocado. Beef carpaccio👌
Andrea MonniJanuary 8, 2016Beautiful local and good service, food is well executed but not interesting at all.
Ms. DNovember 17, 2023For me as a gluten free person, they take my order and provide me with gluten free bread, however the burger was below average.
ReemMarch 27, 2017I were there for lunch, I've tried burgers, fish and chip, and Rositto and all were ok but honestly the food not worth the prices ..

"Place is amazing with great views. Make sure you reserve your free tickets up front on their website. Grab a beer and take a seat on the sofas and relax. The shared washrooms are not ideal."
