I have to say I visited here after reading many of the reviews which raved about this place and was expecting great things - I cant say that I was wowed today though. We ordered some Juice, both of which were from Concentrate for £1.90 and two Main Courses - The Salmon Salad and Bangers and Mash. The salad dressing... More

You can't argue with the quality and size of the full English breakfast for the price at JD Wetherspoon's but if you are near Tower Hill tube then do try this restaurant's full English or even their 'The sink breakfast' ('everything but the ...' as they describe it!) - really good food for about the same price but the staff...

The service was brilliant, they were so friendly and couldn't do enough for our group of 5 I was in. If you are visiting London I would say it was a must after the London tower. A big thank you to all the staff and look forward to coming there again next time I'm in London.

On visiting the Tower of London there is a nearby Costa and other places to grab a bite. But the Kitchen@Tower is an experience! Hidden away in a garden next to a church, the spot is refreshing and comfortable. The bright chairs mirror the beautiful garden settings and the atmosphere is quaint. The service is quick and the staff is... More

Fabulous food. We were in London for a 4 days and tried the breakfast which was really lovely, but a few days later whilst visiting the Tower of London we decided to pop across to the Kitchen for lunch. We tried the Beefeater Burger - it was amazing, more that we had hoped it would be. Everything was devine, particularly... More

I phoned the day before to make a reservation as there were 7 of us and it was for a sUnday lunch time. I spoke to Andrew who was very helpful, as I have Coeliac disease and can only eat gluten free food which can often be difficult. He explained that there were lots of things I could have on... More

Its a small venue with not a lot of seating but this gives the resturant an endearing quality. The food has a "home made" feel to it which is rather nice. I have no hesitation recommending and would suggest booking in advance.

Can honestly say that the breakfast at The Kitchen was the best I've eaten in a long time. It was very tasty, well presented, and very good value for money. Staff were very friendly and the service was prompt. This little gem is perfectly placed if you are visiting the Tower of London, or staying nearby. Will definitely return when... More

We had a fantastic breakfast with the host being an absolute hoot. He also gave us directions on how to get to Buckingham Palace.

We had seen the Kitchen@Tower featured on the TV programme 'The Fabulous Baker Boys' and had been really taken with the special dish the Baker Boys made of the Beefeater burger. We said next time we're in London we must go and experience it. Well after a cross London journey made rather longer and more complicated than expected by Tube... More
