Great little spot for lunch or dinner on the Thames in the City. Nice private rooms in the basement and a great selection of South African wines. My current favorite for business lunches.

Uber cool spot to enjoy some drinks - can be a little fussy on the door in the evening but great place for a light lunch on the patio on a nice day.

The best Tapas bar in London owned by a friend of mine funnily enough called José, no need to book but you may need to wait 10-15 minutes at busy times for a table. Trust me - worth it!

So, you want to see London from the river? How about you take the cable car from Western Gateway to the O2 and then catch a fast boat down to Westminster. I do this instead of taking the Tube often.
