Looking for a place in London where art meets appetite? Welcome to Art Yard Bar & Kitchen on the South Bank, where every meal comes with a side of creativity. This isn’t just a restaurant - it’s an experience, where geometric tiles, mid-century treasures, and hand-painted murals set the stage for some seriously delicious dining. Whether you’re popping in for a quick bite, a lingering lunch or a dinner to remember, they’ve got you covered.
First things first: the food. It’s fresh, seasonal and flexible to suit a range of dietary requirements. Big plates, small plates, plates to share - we’re not here to tell you how to eat, just to make sure you love every bite. From the wild mushroom tortellini to the sirloin steak tagliata with truffle dressing (yes, please), everything on the menu is designed to delight. And for the burger aficionados, let’s just say you’ll want to try The Beefy or the beetroot burger - both are worth shouting about.
The setting? Oh, it’s pure magic. Picture this: walls adorned with carefully curated art (some sourced, some specially commissioned), a vibrant tile mural capturing the South Bank’s essence, and a design scheme inspired by none other than Gio Ponti. You’ll find yourself sipping a glass of wine surrounded by pieces that make you feel like you’ve stepped into a living gallery.
Speaking of sipping, the bar menu is no slouch either. Whether it’s a crisp glass of wine, a signature cocktail, or something bubbly, there’s always a reason to raise your glass at Art Yard. And if inspiration strikes? Pop next door to the Artist’s Studio, where you can see creativity in action with the artist-in-residence. So, whether it’s breakfast, brunch, or dinner - or just a cheeky mid-afternoon snack - Art Yard Bar & Kitchen is your new go-to. You’ll go for the food, stay for the vibes, and leave feeling just a little more cultured.
