There are strada and wagamama underneath the Royal festival hall on the river side and pizza express on the waterloo side of the south bank centre. None of them would be more than 5 mins walk. Canteen underneath the Royal festival hall on the othe side is quite good as well

It is about 100yds down the river from Tower Bridge, right near HMS Belfast, so very easy to find. You may need to book though as it gets busy in the evenings.

puzzler Apr 2016 12:22pm, 13 Apr 2016 620 posts	0 puzzler There's multiple Strada's the one under the south bank is different to one by Tower Bridge. Agree it would be advisable to book.
