London: Restaurants near the Tower?
 

Hello all, we are going to the Ceremony of the Keys and I don't want to herd my troop of five through London getting there in time for the Ceremony...need something within a reasonable walking distance from the Tower. I posted on Chowhounds, and did not get much feedback, so I thought I would try Fodorville! Also, we are staying in a flat in SE1 on Albert Embankment. Any recs near/around there for a family of 5 adults?

There's Wagamama's, which is literally next to the Tower, and which is pretty reasonably priced.

I like Wagamama and it is very close by...thanks for the info! I did not realize it was so close.

Wagamama is definitely a possibility. But there are all sorts of restaurants just across the river, plus restaurants and a pub http://www.dickensinn.co.uk/ in St Katherines' Dock just next door to the Tower.

Janisj, yes I looked at the Dickens and it could be doable. Any thoughts on the SE1 area?

We really enjoy Butler's Wharf Chophouse. The main dining room is pricey, with very good food. Our favorite, though, are the early bird specials (great food, bargain!) in the bar. Outdoor seating with views of Tower Bridge is magnificent in the nice weather!

There's a row of restaurants here, so you can peruse menus/prices and pick what's most appealing to you.
