Bright and breezy canteen-style cafe at Southbank Centre's Royal Festival Hall.
Mon & Tue: 10am–6pm
Wed–Sun: 10am–8.30pm
A quick and casual café and bar at the Royal Festival Hall that’s ideal for drinks or a light lunch before a show or exhibition.
Service is canteen-style with a self-service counter where you can choose from sandwiches, soups and light meals, hot and cold drinks and tempting cakes and pastries. In the summer the café extends out onto a huge open-air terrace overlooking the river with a second outdoor bar for buying drinks.
On summer weekends there’s almost always something happening on the terrace at the pop-up Riverside stage on the terrace such as DJ sets and live performances, making this an especially popular place to drop by for a drink the late afternoon.
