About Blueprint Café

Blueprint Café restaurant located in London’s Design Museum offers spectacular views of the London skyline from Tower Bridge, the Tower of London and the Swiss Re building in the West, sweeping across and along the Thames to Canary Wharf in the East. In fact, the Blueprint Café provides each table with a pair of binoculars to get a closer look at the view – or spy on the warehouse flats opposite. As you would expect of a restaurant in a museum devoted to design, aesthetics are important here and every detail is attended to, from the stylish seating to the well-designed cutlery and place settings. The dining room at the Blueprint Café riverside restaurant is light, simple and unfussy and its interior provides an ideal backdrop to the Blueprint Café’s acclaimed European cooking. Chef Jeremy Lee is devoted to seasonality in his modern European menu served with a deft hand. Come see for yourself.

We had a lovely evening at the Blueprint Cafe. Although the the set menu was quite small, the quality and presentation of the food was good. The views from the restaurant really added to the dining experience. We found it quite cumbersome trying to get the waitstaff's attention to pay our bill at the end, but apart from that the service was good.
