The fairy-lit terrace is a major draw to those looking to get cosy in the evenings. Meanwhile, the house bar is a striking and lively place to get social throughout the day (or night).

Joia

When it comes to rooftop Battersea Power Station restaurants, a stunning view can found on the 15th floor of art-otel in the form of Joia. It promises lip-smacking Portuguese cuisine in arguably one of the prettiest settings in the city. Award-winning, two-Michelin star chef Henrique Sá Pessoa is the genius behind a sensational menu packing octopus salad, cuttlefish buns and Basque cheesecake for dessert. Not just an Instagrammable hotspot, with a glimpse of those incredible power station towers, it also doubles up as a lush cocktail bar, with interiors designed by Russel Sage Studios, and offers deluxe sips like the gin Mahon and lychee-based Onix, and the basil-infused Esmeralda.

TOZI Grand Cafe

TOZI Grand Cafe should be on your radar for pretty Italian dining south of the river. Its design is inspired by the elegance of Europe's famous grand cafés, with towering ceilings and dangling droplets of light. Expect to try dreamy burrata, tender veal Milanese and mega portions of wild boar pappardelle, although don't forget about the punchy negronis or indulgent tiramisu either. You'll also find a luxe afternoon tea for just £35 per person, featuring pistachio cream choux with mascarpone and lemon curb, as well as a traditional Italian Valhorona chocolate tart. 

Roti King Battersea

Whether inside or out on their dining terrace, Battersea Power Station restaurant Roti King is celebrating Malaysian flavour and authentic cuisine in abundance, with chef and owner Sugen Gopal leading the charge. Found on Circus West Village, right next to Battersea Brewery, try their kari selection, with mutton, dahl and fish up for grabs. Then, for dessert, get your chops around Planta AKA sweet roti with condensed milk, or Kaya which is the same except with coconut jam. 

Wright Brothers Battersea

A restaurant the city knows and loves when it comes to ocean dining (with a previous outpost found in the heart of central London), seafood lovers will absolutely adore this gem of a Battersea spot. Oozing a luxurious bistro feel with dark furnishings and a pretty outdoor terrace, The Wright Brothers is the perfect place to devour shellfish platters of dreams.

Grab your best friend, take in stunning views of the Thames from an elegant dining room with rusted red tiled flooring and intimate booths, and order dozens of gorgeous nibbles. We're talking about group-sharing menus filled with patatas bravas, chorizo, Ibérico ham from Señorío de Montanera and other authentic Spanish bites.

The Black Cab Coffee Co

Despite its name, The Black Cab Coffee Co is bringing much more to the table than your daily cup of Joe. With floor-to-ceiling windows letting in floods of natural light, it's a pretty spot to enjoy a flat white and a bite to eat. Dishing out the most scrumptious brunches, cocktails, and botanical decor, they're in the business of fresh quality paired with casual dining. We recommend the spicy shakshuka, or grabbing an open focaccia sandwich filled with Parma ham and mozzarella, and soaking up the rays in the garden.
