Aqua Shard

Restaurant | London | England | Großbritannien

Restaurant mit Panoramablick London

Das „Aqua Shard“ in London ist ein beeindruckendes Restaurant, das sich durch seine spektakuläre Lage im The Shard auszeichnet, dem höchsten Gebäude Großbritanniens. Hoch über der Stadt gelegen, bietet es einen atemberaubenden Panoramablick auf die Londoner Skyline und kombiniert diesen mit einer innovativen, zeitgenössischen britischen Küche. Es gehört zur Aqua Restaurant Group und ist seit seiner Eröffnung ein beliebter Ort für Einheimische und Touristen, die ein besonderes kulinarisches Erlebnis suchen, sei es zum Frühstück, Mittagessen, Nachmittagstee oder Abendessen.

Britische Küche im Aqua Shard

Die Küche des „Aqua Shard“ konzentriert sich auf hochwertige britische Zutaten, die mit kreativen Techniken verfeinert werden. Ein herausragendes Gericht ist das „Roasted Halibut“, ein perfekt gegarter Kabeljau, der mit frischen Schalentieren wie Langustinen serviert wird und durch seine elegante Präsentation besticht. Fleischliebhaber schwärmen vom „Dry-Aged Beef Sirloin“, das mit geröstetem Knochenmark kombiniert wird und eine tiefgründige, rauchige Note bietet. Für den süßen Abschluss begeistert der „Sticky Toffee Pudding“, ein Klassiker, der mit seiner klebrigen Karamellsauce und einem Hauch von Sahne Wärme und Genuss verspricht. Die Speisen zeichnen sich durch ihre Saisonabhängigkeit aus, wobei viele Zutaten aus regionalen Quellen wie dem nahegelegenen Borough Market stammen.

Afternoon tea im Aqua Shard

Die Atmosphäre im „Aqua Shard“ ist modern und kosmopolitisch, geprägt durch bodentiefe Glasfenster, die einen 360-Grad-Blick auf die Stadt ermöglichen – von der Themse über die Tower Bridge bis hin zu den funkelnden Lichtern des nächtlichen Londons. Besonders auffällig ist der dreistöckige Atrium-Bereich, der nicht nur das Restaurant, sondern auch eine beeindruckende Bar umfasst. Diese Bar ist ein eigenständiges Highlight, bekannt für ihre kunstvollen Cocktails wie den „Tea-Infused Martini“, der britische Tradition mit modernem Mixology-Flair verbindet. Das Interieur ist elegant und stilvoll, mit einem Hauch von Understatement, das den Fokus auf die Aussicht und das Essen lenkt.

Hochwertige Zutaten Londoner Restaurants

Das Restaurant bietet verschiedene Erlebnisse über den Tag verteilt. Der Nachmittagstee, etwa der thematische „Peter Pan Afternoon Tea“, ist ein besonderes Ereignis, das in Zusammenarbeit mit dem Great Ormond Street Children’s Hospital entworfen wurde. Er kombiniert herzhafte und süße Leckereien, die von den Abenteuern Peter Pans inspiriert sind, und wird mit einer Auswahl an Tees serviert, die den Gästen unbegrenzt nachgeschenkt werden. Für das Wochenende gibt es einen Brunch, der mit spritzigen Cocktails oder „free-flowing bubbles“ ergänzt werden kann, was ihn zu einem beliebten Treffpunkt für Feiern macht.

Moderne Gastronomie in London

Der Service im „Aqua Shard“ wird oft als aufmerksam und professionell beschrieben, wobei das Personal bestrebt ist, den Gästen ein unvergessliches Erlebnis zu bieten – sei es durch Empfehlungen zu den Gerichten oder durch die Organisation von besonderen Anlässen. Allerdings kann es in Stoßzeiten hektisch werden, und einige Gäste bemerken, dass die Perfektion des Services von der Aussicht und dem Ambiente manchmal leicht in den Schatten gestellt wird. Dennoch bleibt das Restaurant ein Ort, an dem besondere Momente gefeiert werden, von Geburtstagen bis hin zu romantischen Abenden.

Where do you start? Security was 100% you couldn't fault them. We were on the 31st floor with 360 degree views around the London skyline, Starters were made with perfection, with tastes exquisite to the pallet, we had a complementary glass of Rose Champagne which was so nice i finished up buying a bottle for us to drink. The fillet of beef was amazing and we had the extra mashed potato with chives. The deserts were amazing. Our Waiter was Justo who made us feel very welcome and went all out to make our evening special by getting a chef to make me a Birthday treat although it was my 62nd birthday but made me feel 21 again a very nice touch. We were dining with the elite and we Both enjoyed the experience very much.

Beautiful food with attentive service, combined with amazing views across London. Dress code was smart casual but make the most of the experience! Highly recommend the experience, yes it’s on the more expensive side for afternoon tea but worth every penny. £70 per person (plus any alcohol you want) and a 15% service charge. Food was very filling and it you want to take it away, they’ll provide you with a carrier to take some home.

Me and my partner came for the Peter Pan afternoon Tea which was lovely! But we were served our sandwiches and we didn’t receive any tea or coffee as they forgot. We asked for tea for myself and coffee for my partner. We only received the tea and had to keep asking for the coffee. Apart from this the food was lovely.

Everything was amazing the atmosphere, the food and service. The staff were amazing. I do think we may have been overcharged, the bill was to be £85 each (2 people) for three courses plus a bottle of wine which was £74 but the the bill was £364. I would definitely like to return because it was such a fabulous afternoon.

We had booked the window set menu. The view is breathtaking and the food is delicious. What we did not like is the EXTRA charges that we were NOT informed for in advance. The set menu gave prices for extra food charges and for wine pairings it did not (hence we assumed this was included and ordered). When we did order, we were never clarified what options of wine we could have (the only options given to us was red/white). In a place where a glass of wine from the set menu was at an average of £20 pp we were charged £40 pp. To this day, we still do not know what type of wine we drank no servicer took the time to clarify. On top of this, the menu added one extra pairing for the meat which we NEVER ordered. It is disappointing to have clients be charged unexplainably like this as it leaves a bitter taste at the end of the evening and discourages further visits. I hope this is taken into account and waiters are more considerate when explaining charges and taking orders.

Food was excellent, beef fillet was cooked perfectly and the dessert platter was brilliant. Our waiter was very good, although service a little slow out of the kitchen.

My first time having tea in England (visited from Toronto). We had an exceptional experience. Everyone was so kind. Jack ( I hope I got the name right..) was truly welcoming and was kind enough to point out some of the sights. Amazing views, people and experience overall. Would do this again!

Food very, very expensive, 15% Tip included as if... 319 pounds for two people!! Astonishing view over London though. Other than that, does not worth at all.
