50% off at Northbank

Situated on Paul’s Walk besides the Millennium Bridge is the utterly enchanting Northbank, a restaurant awash with modern comforts and a contemporary sense of style.

Now accepting the tastecard, members can enjoy everything on the eclectic menu at an incredible price, providing the perfect excuse to indulge in a little extra.

Recognised by several awards, such as being the Winner of the 2017 OpenTable Diners’ Choice Award, and spearheaded by a passionate new Head Chef, Northbank serves a sublime array of dishes that showcase some of the best Modern British cuisine has to offer, influenced by the occasional Cornish twist.

John, the new Head Chef, says that chefs such as Marco Pierre White and Pierre Koffman have influenced his Modern British style, which features the odd French twist. He has poured his passion into each item on the menu, granting guests an exquisite taste of Modern British cuisine from the very first bite. This is clear from such exemplary appetisers as the heavenly scorched scallops, complete with radish & a watercress oil, and the rich venison carpaccio, partnered with smoked aubergine & a black pepper mayonnaise.

The quality continue through to the main courses, where a concise list of delights await. Outstanding selections include the succulent roast rack of Cornish lamb, adorned with feta cheese & a Kalamata olive jus, and the sumptuous lemon sole, finished with oyster leaves & a champagne cream. Those wishing to conclude their meal in style can also peruse the divine desserts, which offer diners the opportunity to savour a thoroughly enjoyable three course meal.

Complete with a fantastic level of hospitality and glorious views across the River Thames, Northbank works wonders as both a casual spot to sample some brilliant fare and as a venue fit for any celebration.

Important Information

Please Note: The tastecard discount is not available throughout December. The 50% discount is available against the a la carte menu only and may not be used in conjunction with any other offer or specials on the menu.

    We’ve visited Northbank on many occasions and it’s always been excellent in all respects The food wine and cocktail menu is interesting and varied and is regularly updated so return visits never get boring. Location is again unusual and interesting- right on the river with grand views of the Tate modern and millennium bridge from the tables and the outdoor bar. They’re always helpful with particular dietary concerns too ( my wife has a yeast allergy). Thoroughly recommended "

    This was a great meal in a great place: a summer evening on the banks of the Thames with delicious food and great staff.
    One thing to watch out for: the service charge is added to the whole (pre-discount) bill - making it £37 of a total £252. We thought that was high and asked them to trim the tip to £20, which they were happy to do. But overall it was great - a real treat. "

    Fantastic atmosphere and food. Hidden away along the North bank, the restaurant has incredible views of the Thames and riverside.

An absolute bargain, especially with the taste card discount! "

    2nd time we've eaten at this restaurant with it's great location by the Thames and opposite Globe Theatre. Another really nice meal with the bonus of being able to sit outside at the end of September. Food very good although I do personally get annoyed when main courses don't come automatically with some sides/veg. However when my wife cut open her roll there was a full green rubber band inside. Told the waitress who thought it was 'hilarious' ( to be fair maybe picking up on the fact we suggested the meal comes with a free gastric band!), but then just came back with a replacement roll pointing out that they buy in the rolls from elsewhere.! That was it, when we left not even an apology for serving up a roll with an elastic band inside.....
    If it was my restaurant I think I would have got the manager or chef to at least say sorry in person and maybe offer a complimentary coffee ?
    But still really enjoyed and wouldn't put me off going back. "

    No denying the food is great. Although not entirely sure what the Cornish twist was. Restaurant was so very dark. And service overdone, waiting staff fiddling with the table whilst trying to eat. Big enquiry when
    Taste card mentioned. Would not return. "

    I was looking for a nice restaurant close to work which would accept my TasteCard. Wanted something a bit different and spotted Northbank. The service here was amazing; from the beginning to when we left, we felt very welcome. The food was modern British and was truly delightful. Great in season flavours and a great selection of wine to match. Shall definitely be coming back here again. "

    We were travelling down to London for the day so I searched the app for somewhere nice to eat neat Tate Modern. I'm so glad I did - I would never have come across this place otherwise. I requested a table with a river view - and got it - and everything else was just as good. It would have been out of our budget without the Tastecard, and still wasn't cheap (£36 for one starter, two mains and two sides) but it was such a lovely treat. I will definitely go back next time I'm in London. "

    It's a great setting but the tables are squished together, the food pretty bland and of inconsistent temperatures. We had starters and mains and all four dishes had odd mixes of cold/lukewarm vegetables and then hot potatoes and cold meat. I guess just poorly cooked meals. Service was sterile and pushy on the alcohol front. A nice setting but not a nice meal. Won't go back. "

  • Steve said: "Almost perfect
    There were tree of us, we had a lovely table, one main each (fish, streak and lamb), three sides, a bottle of Kiwi Sauvignon at £36 + 12.5%, a couple of juices, one person had dessert and coffee; with the Taste Card discount the bill came to under £40 per head, which is great value for this environment, quality of food and location.

    Service charge is applied to the non-discounted amount, and so it should be because they can't give you half the service just because you are paying for food with a 50% discount.

    The view is amazing and the quality of time spent in the restaurant is undoubtedly good.

    The essentials that everyone wants to know having been dispensed with, I'd like to point at a few things that would have made the evening outstanding rather than just good.

    When we were given the menu, we were not told that the restaurant was out of fillet steak - so, one of us ordered the steak, with carefully selected sides, only to be told a few minutes later that they had run out of steaks. How the hell does a restaurant that sells steaks run out of steak on a Tuesday night? It's like McD running out of burgers.

    There was nothing else that one of our party wanted as much - but he settled on the lamb, which was supposed to be medium-rare. When it arrived it was completely rare inside and dry on the outside. Out of the four slices two were dry and tough end bits that probably should not be served, taking into account that is was not cheap, even with a discount. Black pudding was over-fried and shriveled, with the skin on.

    The Sauvignon arrived warm and was put into a bucket about 5 meters away from us. We had to ask twice to have it on our table, in an ice bucket. Should not they have asked whether we would prefer to have the wine on t he table? because most people do....

    Finally, there was paper white cloth on top of the white linen cloth - and it was not replaced with a fresh one after they removed all the plates and saw food stains on it. What's the point of having it then?

    We will go back, because, on balance, this would have taken the experience from good to very good. However, we will phone in advance and ask to have a fillet reserved for us and a bottle of Sauvignon to go in the freezer. This should not be necessary however. "

    We booked for this restaurant as we had been let down by another restaurant.

    We weren't disappointed! I had the mushroom mousse to start and my husband had the hog’s meat with poached egg - both were delicious and good in size.

    For mains we both had the rib eye steak - I had the 250g size and he had the 350g size. We shared a portion of twice fried chips and a portion of peas with bacon. The steaks were cooked perfectly and indeed the rest of the meal was delicious.

    We had a bottle of wine with it and the bill came in at around £75 with the discount, so still not massively cheap. We didn't get 50% off the side dishes. But as it was our anniversary, we didn't mind so much!

    Our only regret was being too full to event attempt a dessert - they sounded divine. "

    Took a friend to Northbank for a birthday dinner last night. We met a little earlier than our reservation in the bar, the staff were super friendly and helpful, charging the drinks to our dinner bill from the off.

    When it came to dinner we were given a table right by the window with lovely views over the river to the Tate Modern, Globe Theatre and Shard. The staff were all very attentive and our glasses were kept topped-up before we ever had the opportunity to notice them emptying.

    The food was delicious. Scallops to start and possibly one of the tenderest sirloin steaks I've ever eaten for the main. But desert was probably the star of the show - blood orange soufflé served in a cute copper saucepan with raspberry sorbet on the side - it was absolutely perfect.

    First time booking though the tastecard website (rather than on the phone), but there were no problems whatsoever.

    There was just one disappointing element to the evening... we didn't get to meet Veronica. "

    My first experience of using tastecard and it's paid for itself in one meal. I chose this restaurant for the views of the Globe Theatre, Tate Modern and The Shard. I wasn't disappointed.

    The food was excellent from start to finish. This coupled with excellent service has leaded me to score this restaurant 5 overall.

    I especially enjoyed my starter (Redruth Hogs Pudding with Fried Ducks Egg), followed by a very good Rump Steak with Truffle Sauce. My dessert was quite possibly the best dessert I have ever had. Baked Vanilla Custard with Honey Mead Syrup and a Strawberry with Mint leaves in the middle.

    This is a must go to restaurant for food lovers. "

  • foodie said: "Lovely views of the Thames
    I accidentally booked the wrong date on the restaurant's online booking system. I got a text and email confirmation but for some strange reason I was told the booking did not go through to the restaurant's system. Despite this complication, the staff were very accommodating and even offered us a seat by a window with lovely views of the Thames (it was too cold to sit outside that day).

    The dishes were a culinary delight for me, both visually and in terms of taste. It was the first time I'd tasted fish in tomato consomme (clear soup with strained tomato juice) and watermelon salad. The restaurant's current menu looks slightly different from the one shown on the Tastecard website.

    My husband found the starter and mains quite light so we went for dessert and were really full after that. I can recommend the cornish cream ice cream and gooseberry dessert.

    The food (starters, mains and dessert) for two plus service charge set us back £52 after the tastecard discount was applied. The restaurant automatically adds a 12.5% service charge as a proportion of the original price excluding the tastecard discount. It's a bit steep for me even with the discount. We normally spend around £12 per person when we eat at restaurants.

    It was a lovely treat anyway. I don't know of many (or any) places along the Thames with good food, good services and good views with reasonably-priced food all rolled into one. "

    We’ve visited Northbank on many occasions and it’s always been excellent in all respects The food wine and cocktail menu is interesting and varied and is regularly updated so return visits never get boring. Location is again unusual and interesting- right on the river with grand views of the Tate modern and millennium bridge from the tables and the outdoor bar. They’re always helpful with particular dietary concerns too ( my wife has a yeast allergy). Thoroughly recommended "

    This was a great meal in a great place: a summer evening on the banks of the Thames with delicious food and great staff.
    One thing to watch out for: the service charge is added to the whole (pre-discount) bill - making it £37 of a total £252. We thought that was high and asked them to trim the tip to £20, which they were happy to do. But overall it was great - a real treat. "

  • Siobhan said: "Hidden Gem
    Fantastic atmosphere and food. Hidden away along the North bank, the restaurant has incredible views of the Thames and riverside. We opted for the seasonal selection on the menu; lobster lasagne and cannon of lamb. Both were perfectly cooked and incredibly flavoursome. An absolute bargain, especially with the taste card discount! "

    My husband and I had lunch at Northbank to celebrate our wedding anniversary. We'd been once before and really enjoyed it - and we were not disappointed this time!
    A table for two by the window, excellent service and delicious food made us feel very welcome and looked after. We chose the recommended special wine of the week, and it was gorgeous.
    We were there for 2 1/2 hours, and never felt rushed - tip top from start to finish. "

    A really good meal. The food was tasty and the portions were generous. The staff were attentive and provided a really enjoyable service.

  • Bob said: "Rubbery lunch
    2nd time we've eaten at this restaurant with it's great location by the Thames and opposite Globe Theatre. Another really nice meal with the bonus of being able to sit outside at the end of September. Food very good although I do personally get annoyed when main courses don't come automatically with some sides/veg. However when my wife cut open her roll there was a full green rubber band inside. Told the waitress who thought it was 'hilarious' ( to be fair maybe picking up on the fact we suggested the meal comes with a free gastric band!), but then just came back with a replacement roll pointing out that they buy in the rolls from elsewhere.! That was it, when we left not even an apology for serving up a roll with an elastic band inside.....
    If it was my restaurant I think I would have got the manager or chef to at least say sorry in person and maybe offer a complimentary coffee ?
    But still really enjoyed and wouldn't put me off going back. "

    I was looking for a nice restaurant close to work which would accept my TasteCard. Wanted something a bit different and spotted Northbank. The service here was amazing; from the beginning to when we left, we felt very welcome. The food was modern British and was truly delightful. Great in season flavours and a great selection of wine to match. Shall definitely be coming back here again. "

    We were travelling down to London for the day so I searched the app for somewhere nice to eat neat Tate Modern. I'm so glad I did - I would never have come across this place otherwise. I requested a table with a river view - and got it - and everything else was just as good. It would have been out of our budget without the Tastecard, and still wasn't cheap (£36 for one starter, two mains and two sides) but it was such a lovely treat. I will definitely go back next time I'm in London. "

    It's a great setting but the tables are squished together, the food pretty bland and of inconsistent temperatures. We had starters and mains and all four dishes had odd mixes of cold/lukewarm vegetables and then hot potatoes and cold meat. I guess just poorly cooked meals. Service was sterile and pushy on the alcohol front. A nice setting but not a nice meal. Won't go back. "

  • Steve said: "Almost perfect
    There were tree of us, we had a lovely table, one main each (fish, streak and lamb), three sides, a bottle of Kiwi Sauvignon at £36 + 12.5%, a couple of juices, one person had dessert and coffee; with the Taste Card discount the bill came to under £40 per head, which is great value for this environment, quality of food and location.

    Service charge is applied to the non-discounted amount, and so it should be because they can't give you half the service just because you are paying for food with a 50% discount.

    The view is amazing and the quality of time spent in the restaurant is undoubtedly good.

    The essentials that everyone wants to know having been dispensed with, I'd like to point at a few things that would have made the evening outstanding rather than just good.

    When we were given the menu, we were not told that the restaurant was out of fillet steak - so, one of us ordered the steak, with carefully selected sides, only to be told a few minutes later that they had run out of steaks. How the hell does a restaurant that sells steaks run out of steak on a Tuesday night? It's like McD running out of burgers.

    There was nothing else that one of our party wanted as much - but he settled on the lamb, which was supposed to be medium-rare. When it arrived it was completely rare inside and dry on the outside. Out of the four slices two were dry and tough end bits that probably should not be served, taking into account that is was not cheap, even with a discount. Black pudding was over-fried and shriveled, with the skin on.

    The Sauvignon arrived warm and was put into a bucket about 5 meters away from us. We had to ask twice to have it on our table, in an ice bucket. Should not they have asked whether we would prefer to have the wine on t he table? because most people do....

    Finally, there was paper white cloth on top of the white linen cloth - and it was not replaced with a fresh one after they removed all the plates and saw food stains on it. What's the point of having it then?

    We will go back, because, on balance, this would have taken the experience from good to very good. However, we will phone in advance and ask to have a fillet reserved for us and a bottle of Sauvignon to go in the freezer. This should not be necessary however. "

    We booked for this restaurant as we had been let down by another restaurant.

    We weren't disappointed! I had the mushroom mousse to start and my husband had the hog’s meat with poached egg - both were delicious and good in size.

    For mains we both had the rib eye steak - I had the 250g size and he had the 350g size. We shared a portion of twice fried chips and a portion of peas with bacon. The steaks were cooked perfectly and indeed the rest of the meal was delicious.

    We had a bottle of wine with it and the bill came in at around £75 with the discount, so still not massively cheap. We didn't get 50% off the side dishes. But as it was our anniversary, we didn't mind so much!

    Our only regret was being too full to event attempt a dessert - they sounded divine. "

    Took a friend to Northbank for a birthday dinner last night. We met a little earlier than our reservation in the bar, the staff were super friendly and helpful, charging the drinks to our dinner bill from the off.

    When it came to dinner we were given a table right by the window with lovely views over the river to the Tate Modern, Globe Theatre and Shard. The staff were all very attentive and our glasses were kept topped-up before we ever had the opportunity to notice them emptying.

    The food was delicious. Scallops to start and possibly one of the tenderest sirloin steaks I've ever eaten for the main. But desert was probably the star of the show - blood orange soufflé served in a cute copper saucepan with raspberry sorbet on the side - it was absolutely perfect.

    First time booking though the tastecard website (rather than on the phone), but there were no problems whatsoever.

    There was just one disappointing element to the evening... we didn't get to meet Veronica. "

    Not impressed.

    I ordered the crab tortellini as a main and literally was served three tortellini... Food tasted good but pricey for what it was.

    If we didn't have a tastecard we would have felt ripped off!! "

    My first experience of using tastecard and it's paid for itself in one meal. I chose this restaurant for the views of the Globe Theatre, Tate Modern and The Shard. I wasn't disappointed.

    The food was excellent from start to finish. This coupled with excellent service has leaded me to score this restaurant 5 overall.

    I especially enjoyed my starter (Redruth Hogs Pudding with Fried Ducks Egg), followed by a very good Rump Steak with Truffle Sauce. My dessert was quite possibly the best dessert I have ever had. Baked Vanilla Custard with Honey Mead Syrup and a Strawberry with Mint leaves in the middle.

    This is a must go to restaurant for food lovers. "

    50% off for 4 people - Fantastic food and the steaks were amazing! Even with the discount wasn't that cheap - but may have been the 4 bottles of wine we had! Great modern decor and lovely window seats overlooking the river or 'booth' style seating if required - would definitely recommend. "

  • foodie said: "Lovely views of the Thames
    I accidentally booked the wrong date on the restaurant's online booking system. I got a text and email confirmation but for some strange reason I was told the booking did not go through to the restaurant's system. Despite this complication, the staff were very accommodating and even offered us a seat by a window with lovely views of the Thames (it was too cold to sit outside that day).

    The dishes were a culinary delight for me, both visually and in terms of taste. It was the first time I'd tasted fish in tomato consomme (clear soup with strained tomato juice) and watermelon salad. The restaurant's current menu looks slightly different from the one shown on the Tastecard website.

    My husband found the starter and mains quite light so we went for dessert and were really full after that. I can recommend the cornish cream ice cream and gooseberry dessert.

    The food (starters, mains and dessert) for two plus service charge set us back £52 after the tastecard discount was applied. The restaurant automatically adds a 12.5% service charge as a proportion of the original price excluding the tastecard discount. It's a bit steep for me even with the discount. We normally spend around £12 per person when we eat at restaurants.

    It was a lovely treat anyway. I don't know of many (or any) places along the Thames with good food, good services and good views with reasonably-priced food all rolled into one. "

    The food was nice, service was friendly but a bit lacking (asked for lemon with my fish, never arrived.) Bit of a disappointment that they overcharged us. If it wasn't for the tastecard it wouldn't be worth it. Check your bill though. "

  • Sarah said: "Still my favourite Taste restaurant
    I first reviewed this restaurant over 2 years ago.

    It has had a change of head chef but I just wanted to say that it remains my favourite London restaurant. We recently took visitors from the US and they loved it too.

    I have never had a bad experience. Eating at night with the Tate Modern and The Globe in sight, and the Millennium Bridge lit up, is great. The food is delicious and the staff friendly and efficient. I love it! "
