Rick Stein’s Seafood Restaurant in London
Located on the banks of the River Thames, along from Richmond, our Barnes restaurant delivers some pleasing peace from fast-paced London life with timeless views and a nod to our Cornish homeland. On the menu you’ll find a celebration of the very best fish and shellfish from around the coast and some of our most iconic dishes that have stood the test of time like tronçon of turbot with hollandaise, grilled lobster with fines herbes and sole Véronique. On a clear day, spend an hour or more in our courtyard with a bottle from Charlie’s wine list and a platter of oysters – very nice indeed.
Our river setting is also the ideal location to sample our fab winter set menu, two courses £24.95 and three courses £29.95 (See below for full availability.) All complemented with some of Rick and Charlie Stein’s favourite wines that perfectly pair with our menus.
