About The Archduke
The Archduke Restaurant on London’s South Bank is set in stunningly converted Victorian railway arches just a step from the Royal Festival Hall, National Theatre, London Eye, London IMAX, and Waterloo Station, so it’s packed with arty types, tourists, and clever commuters who know where to relax before hitting the rails. Set on multiple levels, The Archduke is filled with light and greenery. The restaurant is on the first floor and there’s a conservatory with neo-colonial fans and Casablanca rattan furniture. Live jazz wafts around the high ceilings from Monday through Saturday. Modern European dishes include starter of duck and puy lentil terrine with plum compote, main course of sea bass with couscous and Mediterranean vegetables with pesto dressing, and dessert of thick toffee pecan pie with cream. The Archduke’s popular Presto Menu will get you back to work or to the theatre before the curtain goes up.

As usual the service was efficient (first course served within 5 mins of ordering) and we had a very enjoyable pre-theatre meal including coffee. The wine by the glass was also very good. A nice venue for South Bank eating.Review
Have been to the Archduke twice in 2 weeks and enjoyed both experiences. Great service (tho can be a bit quick) and lovely buzzy ambience. Would definitely return for a meal and even for a pre or post theatre drink... One to recommend.Review
The Archduck is lovely!! The food was amazing and the staff paid just enough attension to let you enjoy your company. I would go back especially as it's such a good location for getting home from Waterloo.Visitors
