"Blessed with horizontal, if not vertical, proximity to Borough Market, the emphasis here is on well-sourced, market-fresh ingredients from independent suppliers." Full review
"There’s one really good reason to go to Aqua Shard: the view. It’s epic...the food is please-all hotel menu fodder: modern European with the occasional Asian dish thrown in." Full review
"While you're up there, you may as well eat something nice, and you can do just that at the Aqua Shard lounge, which serves afternoon tea and drinks against sweeping views of the city." Full review
