Visitor Information

For summer 2019 the riverside terrace next to Somerset House is partnering with San Miguel beer to offer a summery menu of Spanish-inspired tapas and an outdoor swing. The enviable riverside location commands wonderful views of the Thames from the other side of the 18th-century courtyard. Large sunshades shield customers from the sun's reflective glare, while cooling breezes waft in off the river. Order padron peppers or stone baked flatbreads topped with chorizo, manchego and rocket and watch the boats meander along the river as the sun goes down. Facing away from the bustle on the Strand, overlooking Waterloo Bridge and the Southbank it's easy to forget you're just minutes away from the West End. As well as Spanish beers by the bottle there are exclusive beers on tap, including San Miguel London, and beer-based cocktails.
