My mom and I dined at Seabird during our trip to London. We were staying at the Hoxton Hotel where the restaurant is located, so this was a convenient dinner option for us. We shared three dishes and my mom ordered a salad. We were only moderately hungry, so the portion sizes were perfect for us. The shrimp and scallops were delicious. We shared one other dish that I can't recall the name of, but it also was delicious. We also enjoyed the service here. Our server was attentive although busy. He even took the time to listen to details of our trip and gave recommendations. I would recommend this spot especially if you're staying at The Hoxton or nearby in the Southwark area. Great food, and drinks with a nice view of London from the outside rooftop area. read more

We had a thoroughly enjoyable evening at Seabird. We were there two days after Christmas and the restaurant was very quiet, we were seated by the window with a lovely view of the Shard and its ever changing lights. Service from the two young men was friendly and efficient. We shared the afternoon sea and it was delicious, they were out of mussels but substituted some large smoked clams that were a real treat. We topped it off with some very quaffable English bubbly. All in all a very nice evening. read more

Friendly service. The location..14th floor.. outside .the view is amazing.. a little windy but beautiful. Loved the large cut fries. The medium well cowboy sirloin was. The fried calamari is yumm. 4 stars. Def 4 stars. Recommend. Only think is 1.5 hr limit. read more

A pricey joint with stellar seafood. Cool shell themed ambience, with a sky rise view. Would come here if you're looking to indulge and relax. Must-order - oysters (amazing selection, each delicious) - octopus roll (unique take on lobster roll) - basque stew (bisque like soup, great fish) Tasty - scallop ceviche (fresh flavors) - patatas bravas (fun take on the dish) - croquetas (were good, but we hail from Miami so par for the course) Only thing that was underwhelming was the dressed crab, we think it may have been the fish spread detracted from the crab and made it less flavorful. We also would have ordered one less small plate, as we were expecting tapas size and a couple were bigger than that. read more

Views and chews! Before arriving in London I stumbled upon this restaurant on IG and immediately made reservations. My travel companions and I love seafood and the view's seemed unmatched so It was a no brainer. The restaurants decor is amazing and dreamy. And once you step outside to the rooftop you're immediately met with amazing views of London. Now for the food. If you're a seafood lover this place is for you. We opted for the calypso tower (clams, grilled mussels, langoustines, red prawns, tuna tartare) and it was everything! Then enjoyed a few small plates. Only gripe was upon arrival it took some time before we were waited upon. But once that was sorted out we throughly enjoyed our evening, the food and the beautiful sunset. If you plan on dining here make reservations. It fills up quickly. read more

Since we got there the front desk host was awesome. She took the time to ask us where we wanted toe be seated. The outside was nice, but a bit too cold still for me. She sat us down in a great with a great view. Food was absolutely great, definitely will go back and highly recommend this spot for a night out. Must visit! read more

Seabird - The spot!!! - Seafood Near Me - London, XGL

Definitely in the pricey side, but had a wonderful experience here. The whole vibe is very chill but classy. It's situated on the 14th floor- not very high- but still gives fantastic night views of London. This place is very seafood based, so definitely a seafood lovers dream! The octopus roll is a must order for everyone and is one of their signature dishes. They offer a seafood tower, but those must be ordered in advance. The rest of the menu is subject to available produce, so you know you're always getting fresh seafood. Oysters are stellar, so be sure to order one of each! Jk - they usually have a selection of ~14 different type of oysters, so it might be an oyster overload, but do get at least a couple per person. Their oysters are sourced from within England, Ireland, Wales, and France. read more

Last night in London and was the worst service ever, waiter wreaked of alcohol and didn't provide the level of service you would expect from this restaurant hyped up by a London influencer. Huge disappointment and since 12.5% gratuity is already included can't tip what was correctly deserved. read more

Had reservations yet had to wait 15-20 minutes in hotel lobby before being let up to the restaurant. Security downstairs were professional and well dressed, just should not of had to wait so long. Staff upstairs was attentive, especially Monica. Very friendly. Went above and beyond to assist us. Will definitely come back, perhaps for happy hour or when it's not as busy so the overall experience is worth the price. Irish, Scottish and UK oysters are best on menu. French ones are small and salty. Kinda like the personality of a Frenchman. Lol read more

Seabird - Oysters available as of May 15, 2022 - Seafood Near Me - London, XGL

Pretty rooftop spot, nice views, nice vibe....However, the restaurant was oddly sold out of most everything we wanted to order and we were dining at 7 pm. Odd, no? Seabird is allegedly famous for their oysters and raw bar. Fantastic! We love oysters!...Oh sorry no, out of those. Grilled langoustines sounded yummy. Too bad: sold out. There are three "sharing plates" on the menu and the Basque seafood stew sounded like the best of the three. Oh, sorry, no more of that available. We did make a perfectly fine meal out of the menu items that were available, so 3 stars for that, but the whole operation seems a bit questionable when so many of the proffered items aren't actually anywhere on the premises. read more

We had the pleasure of sitting at the bar at Seabird, where Naiche truly delivered an exceptional experience. From start to finish, they were not only super attentive but also incredibly friendly and funny. It's rare to find someone who can balance great service with genuine warmth and hospitality, and Naiche did it perfectly. Whether it was helping us with our order or just chatting with us, they made the evening feel special. If you're looking for top-notch service with a personal touch, Seabird should be at the top of your list. Great snacks, great wine and really stunning restaurant environment. Loved the ambiance! read more

Great restaurant with beautiful views and awesome food! We were there for the happy hour and tried their chef oyster selection with four kinds of different local oysters, and all of them worked great. The service was top notch! read more

Two of my friends were in town and had a booked a reservation here and asked me to tag along. I had never heard of it before and agreed to come. The location is on the rooftop so the views are absolutely amazing and the ambience is quite lovely. Food: it's hard to rate this one properly as they are known for their oyster bar but at the same time they have an all day menu as well which I opted for. I wish I had tried something different as what I got was quite little and a bit expensive for my taste. The variety is very good here and you have to love seafood to be here although there are some plant based options. My friend got oysters and she really enjoyed them as she was able to pick a variety of flavours. My other friend got small plates and I got a scallop dish. Overall the flavours were impressive and all delicious, but definitely felt like I could have gotten more or something else. Exterior/interior: the design is probably one of the best parts of this place. The rooftop is incredible and the day was clear so we could see all the London views. The atmosphere is lush and very pleasant. The interior is quite nice with the bars and countertops and you can see what the chefs are doing which is a pretty cool experience! Would definitely like to come again and try some other dishes. :) read more

This is my second time staying at the Hoxton and second time going to Seabird. First time I sat at the bar inside and second time I got there early to enjoy the view outdoors. This place is a delight. Excellent service. Fresh, delicious food. A standout for me. Love to come back! Thank you. read more

Pricey, but the views are good, there's an outdoor roof terrace, the seafood is excellent. They have a very extensive oyster menu - more than 10 different types - so this is a great place to bring oyster connoisseurs. They also do an oyster happy hour - daily from like 3pm till 6pm I believe. It used to be £1 oysters, but now I think its £1.50+, but still cheaper than the usual £3+ a pop on their regular menu. Good for a business meal, or date night to impress. Located inside the Hoxton Hotel. read more

Great food, great service, great view. Though it's an unusually cold day for London, I went to this place and had a great dinner. The oysters were fresh, and the whole seabass was perfectly prepared, bones nicely removed, and not covered with sauce like other seafood restaurants. 14th floor view of London is unparalleled. I grew up in NYC, and we had a house in the Hamptons, and I used to catch this fish (or striped bass, a large relative of this fish). Can't recommend highly enough. read more
