Opening in autumn 2017, this new venue has some big names behind it.
A project from theatre heavyweights Sir Nicholas Hytner and Nick Starr, it has been designed by award-winning architects Haworth Tompkins, and will be the only large commercial theatre in central London that isn’t in the West End. A sizeable auditorium – primarily used for theatre productions – will also be well-suited to conferences and product launches. The Main Foyer is the spot for receptions of up to 350 guests.
Bright and contemporary, the space’s highlights are its huge atrium ceiling and views of Tower Bridge, The Tower of London and Potters Field.
The Lower Ground Foyer is a cosy option, and comes with a 60in screen – great for small presentations and receptions.
In-house catering comes from St JOHN restaurant.
Our main foyer is filled with light and boasts stunning views of the Thames and Tower Bridge. With our iconic lampshades hung through there's always the perfect photo opportunity.
It fits 400 people comfortably and is a great space for fundraisers, corporate events, product launches and award ceremonies (morning and afternoon only if a show is on).

September 2024The service was really good. A cozy and cute cafe and restaurant, very close to the tower bridge. Depending on where you sit, you get the chance to have a very nice view of the Thames and the bridge! Very good cup of tea, and the food that was being served at the table next to us looked so good we certainly would have stayed for lunch if we had not eaten before!

August 2024Fantastic location. Beautifully decorated restaurant that also delivers an amazing and very relaxed enjoyable dining experience. Food was delicious and service was warm and friendly. A definite return visit in the diary!

September 2024Super nice restaurant in great location. I had a table with view on a Tower bridge, it was fantastic. Good menu with interesting positions. The cocktail was fancy. Unusual taste of desert. Pleasant service. They add service fee in receipt.

September 2024The best for me personally is Bath, but this was just as good. My word, what great food and as usual very well presented and the waiter was a dream just on the scales of professionalism but with a dash of humour.

August 2024Wait time from being seated to getting offered drinks was 20 minutes. Wait time for first course and second course was 20 minutes. Dined here before and it was great. However this time around I was so disappointed. Steak came out over cooked 3 times. Service was so slow. The mocktails were basic and needs some elevation given the price. The blended watermelon & strawberry aperol spritz was amazing in the hot weather. The table next to us also had multiple issues. Not the standard I expect from The Ivy. For reference our dinner reservation was at 7 and we did not leave the restaurant until 10pm
