There is always a vegetarian option for each course. The Market Lunch menu is priced at £25.50 for two courses or £29.50 for three – to book your table to try it for yourself please visit the About Us page – we look forward to seeing you!
Provenance is very important to us here at aqua shard. Whatever the produce we’re using, whether it’s vegetables, dairy, fish or meat, we want to be sure that not only is it going to taste absolutely delicious, but that it has come from a supplier who cares as much about quality as we do.
You can imagine then how pleased we are to now be using pork from Blythburgh in Suffolk, reared by the Butler family and supplied via Aubrey Allen. Fully free-range, the pigs are reared and live their lives outside (protected when needs be from the elements by tents and huts) benefiting from ample space to roam and the sea breeze from the Suffolk coast.

We think we can safely say that summer’s well and truly here, and with it come new dishes created by Anthony Garlando to reflect the lighter, brighter season both in taste and appearance.
One ‘From The Sea’ dish already proving hugely popular is this Open crab ravioli, made using fully-traceable, sustainable crab from The Real Cornish Crab Co. This family-run fishery give every delivery a QR code, which when scanned gives the date the crab was caught, the name of the boat and even the name of the fisherman!

Following on from our very enjoyable trip with chef Anthony Garlando to meet our poultry suppliers recently we were down on a farm again this week! This time we went with Anthony to Rampisham in west Dorset to visit Capreolus Fine Foods, from whom chef is going to be sourcing some fine English charcuterie.
As anyone who’s eaten here or joined us for drinks in the bar will know, here at aqua shard we love to take great British traditions and give them a unique twist. So with Wimbledon fortnight well under way, naturally the latest staple to receive an aqua shard reinvention is strawberries and cream.

Ever since we opened, the quality of the produce Anthony Garlando and his team use to create our contemporary British cuisine has been of paramount importance. No ingredient will go into one of Anthony’s dishes unless it meets his stringent expectations and he takes great pride in sourcing as much as possible himself from hand-picked suppliers.
