Bustronome, a play on words between Bus and Gastronomy is a high-end double-decker bus that has been converted into a fine-dining restaurant filled with good wine and delicious food – all whilst enjoying unparalleled views of London’s most iconic sights.
The food is meticulously prepared in the kitchen downstairs, whilst upstairs the roof of specially made glass provides 360 degree views of the landmarks, monuments and stunning views of the capital.
The duration is approximately 2 hours during which you enjoy a seasonal four-course menu (lunch) or six-course menu (evening) packed with local flavours, as you dine in a moving restaurant. There’s an innovative audio guide on board which allows you to delve into the history of the Big Smoke as you pass its notable locations: Big Ben, St. Paul’s Cathedral and more!
Each menu can either be paired with wine or you can buy drinks as you go.
We opted for the 4-course lunch menu with wine pairings and it most certainly didn’t disappoint. The dishes included Salmon Tartare, Pan Seared Cod, Duck Breast and Pannacotta followed by tea or coffee served with petit fours. Presentation and taste was most definitely like being in a fine dining restaurant not on a bus! The ambience is magical, there is a real buzz.
You really do get the best of both worlds, amazing food and drink along with sight-seeing of one of the most beautiful cities in the world. It really is the ideal way of experiencing London during all seasons day and night.
