Craft London is a modern British restaurant, cocktail bar, caf and shop from acclaimed chef Stevie Parle and designer Tom Dixon. We are located in North Greenwich just outside the tube station, next to the O2 arena. We focus on quality of production and collaborate with modern experts, fanatics and obsessives to craft world class products.
A lot of what we serve is made using British produce, sourced from farmers and suppliers we know well and always handled with a light, modern, touch. We roast our own coffee, smoke our own fish, cure meats, ferment vegetables, keep bees and grow vegetables on the Peninsula Jetty. Our first floor restaurant offers a simple, changing menu of snacks, starters, mains and desserts.

Services
Book your table at Craft London restaurant and bar, perfectly positioned next to The O2 Arena and North Greenwich tube station. View our menu for lunch, dinner or your pre-show meal. We offer a daily set-menu of 2 or 3 courses for 21 / 28 from 5:30pm with service guaranteed within 90 minutes. Test Kitchen allows guests to be part of the creative process at Craft London.
Our rooftop bar is situated above the restaurant and features 360 degree views, a lovely outdoor terrace and unique Tom Dixon interior. Our cocktail list echoes Stevie's influence in the kitchen. No fruit is used out of season, very little has been imported and our cocktails use honey, treacle or golden syrup instead of regular white sugar syrup.

We bake a selection of pastries each day and there's a changing lunch special too.

We were treated to a meal by good friends and the meal and service didn’t disappoint. We don’t normally “do fancy” but this was an amazing experience. Each dish was delicious and we were disappointed when the last mouthful was finished. And our waiter made the evening. He was brilliant- sorry can’t remember his name :-( but remember he was from Transylvania - Funny how you remember certain things!!

The is a nice little bar and ideal if you’re looking for cocktails. Accessed via the lift in the reception area the circular bar areas runs round the whole building. It’s not the widest of spaces so it quickly gets difficult to move around during busy times but there’s a decent amount of seating, both at the bar and high tables by the windows. The view is pretty good too, especially at sunset plus a small outdoor terrace area.
The drinks menu is quite varied and there’s plenty of cocktail options. All are prepared from scratch so when it’s busy there can be a bit of a wait, but the quality

My partner and I went here for a tasting menu and whisky pairing for Burns Night. The menu was expertly crafted (why are haggis croquettes not on every menu every menu everywhere?) And paired with some fantastic whisky cocktails. Really well executed in a stunning space. When it's not burns night they roast there own coffee, cure there own meat and offer fantastic service all year round. Certainly worth a trip to Greenwich.

Very reasonable prices for a variety of fare. Our group enjoyed lunches here two days in a row during a visit to London/O2 for a conference.
The food was good. I highly recommend the pizzas. My shakshuka breakfast was also very good. The drinks are good too, but seemed a bit on the small side.
Seating is available inside and out.
Staff are friendly, and generally patient during large queues.
I would highly recommend if you're in the area.

An excellent 4 course meal for Burns Night 2019. The cooking was delectable throughout with excellent whiskey themed drinks paired with each course. The restaurant read my reservation notes and made my menu pescatarian friendly which was appreciated. The main of Atlantic Hake cooked in a beurre noisette with a smoked cod roe cream, and the tempura conger eel with hay smoked buttermilk were both beautifully cooked and memorable dishes. Great job!

The restaurant 🍽️: pizzas are made in a wood burnt oven so you can expect better aroma and they do taste good 🍕🔥. But the crusts are a bit too thick.
The bar upstairs🍾: has 360° views of which 180° is really worth going there for (O2 and London City). 🍷🍸🍹 are nice too. You could smell that wood fire upstairs a bit 🤨

Great coffee, food, and a cozy-modern vibe! My wife and I went here for brunch ahead of a show at the O2. Soya milk is available at no extra cost and there are tasting notes for the current coffee beans on the counter.
The food prices were reasonable and avo toast is available for vegans! Not sure about their provenance and forgot to ask. #potentialBloodAvos

Great service, good pizza at a very good price, free still and sparkling water. Not many tables, so ensure to get there just before it gets full. No coke or pepsi or other famous brand drinks, but they really make it up for it with free still and sparkling water for every customer, with free unlimited refill.

Food was nice, but they put an unknown item on the bill. It was spotted, complained and they quickly apologize, it seems as though that's what they do to get money off customers as as another customer complained immediately after we did. Service charge was ridiculous amount too. 2-stars for the meal.

Came here in the evening after dinner to get drinks. The server was amiable and helped all four of us with picking our drinks. The atmosphere was great with a good view of the Thames River. It's in a great location next to O2 and the cable cars that went across the river which is where we were staying.

The reason I'm not giving this 5/5 is because I don't think the ambiance lives up to the food. So don't judge the food by the location (like I initially did!)
The food is simply exquisite. We decided to splash out on the longer tasting menu and did the wine pairings and we were not disappointed. The service was fantastic and all of the staff knew the food and wine extremely well.
We started with 'snacks'- homemade crackers, salted yogurt, pickled vegetables, duck ham. This was accompanied with mead - lovely flavours. From there we moved through a beef tartare, a mind

Craft, Greenwich - Craft made an impression on some of us either by recommendation or, more recently, having watched Masterchef UK 2016. For whatever reason it was, when they launched Test Kitchen Tuesday, we thought it might be the best time to try. Test Kitchen Tuesday is a promotion that runs on every Tuesday from now until the end of the year which consist of a five course meal for £28.00. Bookings available only after 20:00 hours.
We were first elevated to the bar for drinks. The circular space of the bar with big window panes meant we had a 360 degree view ranging from the O2 building

The O2 is big. I have been to a few concerts here and there is no shortage of bars and restaurants in the building for pre-concert dining. Most of the chains have well and truly set up home here from Nandos to Cafe Rouge, from Byron to Zizzi. Step outside the venue and you stumble upon something independent, Craft London.
When you first walk into the space, it seems out of place amongst the other run of the mill spots. It' sexy and glam interior makes it feels more like it should be in Mayfair, the city or Soho. It is stylish. The fact that it is a collaboration with Tom Dixon tells you

I was at the O2 for an event and, whenever possible, I try to avoid the big coffee chains - so I went for a coffee at this place. Conveniently located, a bit far from the crowds, the atmosphere was tranquil and not too noisy. Prices were acceptable and the decor trendy without verging on the too hipsterish. Nice cups and plates (yes, that is important), the right size to appreciate your hot beverage instead of the buckets you often get in some places.
Unfortunately the coffee was a miss for me. My flat white was waaay too bitter. I understand this is a London trend (and maybe a preference of

Okay, so I'm spoiled in the East End for craft pretty-much-everything, but I've been in mostly abandoned railway arches that have more character than this place. For real. Craft has about as much atmosphere as the Moon. I can only guess from other reviews that the food is great, or the coffee is alright, but honestly? I won't be going back to find out. The whole edifice feels like it's just been popped out of the shrink wrap.

I went to Craft for a drink to kill some time before the Barclays Tennis Event at the O2. I was pleasantly surprised, as I was in search of any regular bar, and Craft is not any regular bar. It is modern, very chic and has views of the area with a lovely wait staff and fun, inventive cocktails. Try the SE10 - with gin, sparkling wine and a strawberry liquor. I was also in search of an outlet to charge my phone and while they didn't have one visible, one of the bartenders graciously offered to charge mine behind the bar, which was incredibly helpful, as I was about to use it to take pictures

I feel as though I'm still not completely sold on this place. I had read a stellar review in Caffeine magazine, which was the reason for my visit but I was honestly quite disappointed. Maybe it was due to the photos of the cafe giving an generous view of the place, but it's actually quite small and you have to fight off parents and their kids to get a seat.
The coffee - which is my biggest love - was alright, but the cappuccino I ordered was far too milky and did a disservice to the review I'd read of the place. Would have been better served in a smaller cup rather than the huge
