    We came for Christmas Lunch. The ambiance was very nice & a great wine selection. They offered a 5 course meal for the holiday. Due to the amount of people they were serving, the service was moderate. Given a regular day, we gather it would have been better. The food wasn’t what we had expected, some plates could have been prepared better.

We appreciate your understanding that the large number of guests may have impacted the experience, and we are committed to improving both the quality of the dishes and the service. We hope to have the opportunity to provide you with a more seamless experience on a future visit. Kind regards, Le Pont de la Tour

    Wonderful wonderful service and ambiance! Had Christmas Day Dinner. Some of the set meal was great - some of it was a miss. Steak tartar was a miss. The goose entree was a questionable choice over using duck. The halibut main was very good. Both desserts were shockingly a miss. I love Le Pont de la Tour but we wouldn't be back for Christmas Day in the future unfortunately.

    Très bonne table, nous y avons déjeuné pour le 25 décembre. Un repas et un service digne de ce nom, cependant nous avons été déçu de devoir libérer notre table assez rapidement. Néanmoins je recommande, très bonne adresse.

    Whilst the restaurant is located in an iconic location and we were fortunate to have window side table and could see Tower Bridge (but little of the Thames) food was meagre in portions and the Halibut was tasteless. The goose was better but limited portion size was disappointing. The champagne was good but at $200 per bottle one would expect no less, however the waitress confused our order and started serving by the glass instead from the purchased bottle. Overall at $900 for Christmas lunch for two I’d say that much better value and atmosphere can be found elsewhere.

    Dear Brian, Thank you for sharing your feedback. We're glad you enjoyed the view and the champagne, but we are sorry to hear that the food and service did not meet your expectations. Our champagne starts from the £98 per bottle, however we do have great selection of a sparkling wines, which are equality delicious and priced differently. We strive to offer a memorable experience, and we regret that we fell short during your visit. Your input is valuable to us, and we hope you’ll consider giving us another chance in the future. Kind regards, Le Pont de la Tour

    I’ve been going to Le Pont de la Tour for over 20 years. Everything is sublime. The food is delicious, the service is amazing. We had the last seating at lunch today and you would never think anyone was rushing to get ready for dinner service or just tired from a busy lunch. Plus the views…

    We had a long, leisurely lunch in luxurious surroundings with excellent service and lovely food and wine, while reviewing charitable activities over the last year and plans for the next.
