Britain · DINING EXPERIENCES
6 dining experiences you can book today, each with its price, its running time and the sort of traveller it suits. The first one is first for a reason.
Spend three hours on the Thames, beginning at Westminster Pier with sparkling wine and a three-course British dinner. You will pass Big Ben, Canary Wharf, the O2 Arena, City Hall, and the Thames Barrier before returning to Westminster. Live singers, including performers such as Emma and Patrick Phelps, provide music for listening or dancing.
“The singer: she was amazing The crew: absolutely friendly”
Board at Westminster Pier for a roughly three-hour evening cruise past the London Eye, St. Paul’s Cathedral, Shakespeare’s Globe, Tower Bridge, Canary Wharf, and the Thames Flood Barrier. A welcome sparkling wine, set three-course dinner, live music, and dancing are included. VIP adds champagne, canapés, and upgraded seating.
“Friendly efficient staff. Good standard of food. Our party all had a great time. My only minor gripe would be that the music was quite loud, which made conversation more difficult. Apart from that, a thoroughly enjoyable experience.”
Head to Hard Rock Cafe London on Old Park Lane in Mayfair for a two or three-course American meal surrounded by music memorabilia. Choose the Acoustic or Electric menu, then settle in with priority seating, a soft drink, coffee, or tea. The venue suits music fans, families, and anyone wanting a lively meal near central London sights.
“Really happy with the service. My husband was a bit sceptical at first but when got there the service was straight through and fab. Would recommend to anyone!”
Enjoy a two or three-course meal at Hard Rock Cafe Piccadilly Circus, the brand’s flagship London venue. Choose dishes such as the Legendary Smashed Burger, Moving Mountains burger, grilled salmon, or BBQ combo, then finish with dessert and a soft drink, tea, or coffee. Priority seating helps, though a short wait is still possible.
“Good food, fun setting, great location in the centre of London. Very handy booking and paying in advance, and it was lovely walking straight in whilst others were being given buzzers to await a table.”
Join Basil, Sybil, and Manuel for a two-hour dinner show at London’s President Hotel. You’ll eat a 1970s-style three-course meal while impersonators recreate the comic chaos of Fawlty Towers. Expect sharp audience interaction, familiar scenes, and food that serves the joke as much as the appetite.
“Crying with laughter from start to finish…. The whole setup was well organised and the food was traditionally “Faulty”…… but it was warm and comforting. Well done to all concerned….😂”
Spend about five and a half hours aboard a luxury Jeanneau yacht from Lymington Yacht Haven. Your skipper and crew handle the sailing, or teach you at the helm, while you cruise the Solent toward Isle of Wight views. Champagne, a hot two-course meal, tea, coffee, safety gear, blankets, and dietary options are included. Some sailings have been crewed by Gary and Paul.
“If you’re in Southampton before or after a cruise, this experience is a great alternative to touring castles, churches or old towns. Incredible value for a 5+ hour adventure activity which includes fabulous lunch or dinner.”
Start with a city, a castle or a coastline.
