Perched a stone’s throw from the iconic Tower Bridge and the pleasant shops and walkways of Shad Thames, this is an upmarket addition to the area that should get everyone talking. Occupying a corner site, the downstairs bar is spacious and airy with a good selection of drinks, including some well-made signature cocktails, including the likes of chilli & passion fruit martini (chilli infused Vodka shaken with raspberry and passion fruit).

The upstairs dining room is serene and warm with a largely north Indian menu. Cooking reflects a partnership of the traditional and modern, with notable items including cod and shrimp cake, gilouti kebab, duck breast with apricots – one of the best and innovative dishes on the menu - scallops and chicken khumbi bahar. Service is friendly and overall, this comes close to being the finest Indian in the square mile.
