Party & group booking

Popular as it is for business lunches and dinners, The Depot is an especially good choice for Christmas parties - hire the whole venue or part of it for a minimum spend. The private Sunset Room has views of, well, sunsets over the Thames, while the conservatories are fine for seated parties up to 22 guests.

About The Depot

The Depot restaurant in Barnes enjoys one of London's best locations. With a cobbled Victorian courtyard in an award-winning historic conversion on one side and unobstructed views of the River Thames on the other, The Depot restaurant is one of this area's favourite brasseries. The worn wooden furniture, high ceilings, brick arches and stylish conservatory create a very special atmosphere for every occasion from weekend brunches to lazy lunches, family suppers to romantic dinners. The Depot’s seasonally-changing menu of classic and modern European cuisine is perennially popular and extremely well-priced. There’s a Sunday lunch and Saturday brunch, so all the bases are covered. The global wine list has a nice line in bin ends and is perfectly matched to the cuisine. The Depot's sunny terrace is a local favourite spot to while away an afternoon, not least because here the al fresco dining is miles from the traffic fumes. The service is swift, friendly and inspiring.

Halibut and seared scallops with crayfish, baby spinach and tarragon risotto.

Had to ask twice for two things, and the waiter also wrongly told us that the cream was already in the Moules Marinier sauce - just not true. How could it be ? So have marked down the service. Apart from that this place isright up there with the best of them. Food as ever very good - excellant crispy duck.. I am a regular and had this been my first time I wd have still recommended it. Bzz.
