Cafe at Tate Modern with views over the river to St Paul’s cathedral. A welcome stop and delicious cakes! Coffee and iced coffee highly recommended! They had a great selection of cakes, pastries, breakfast dishes and children’s options! All very fresh & high quality. They have a good drinks menu for the evenings with lots of board games available to play! Great atmosphere

Lovely place with delicious options and great music. Probably it is better to come a little earlier as the warm meals might sell out (around 2PM there were 2 options available). Staff is polite, I was served quickly :)

Lovely space on the..."corner" of the tate. Great coffee, plenty of sandwiches come out at 11:30ish. Outstanding craft beer selection but cans are only available to drink in. Access directly into the tate gallery is possible too. Free WiFi and a few folks working on laptops. Plenty of varied seating.

love this space and the food options available. great to hang out with friends or just be on your own (after the museum or even when you don’t intend to visit the museum) the hot chocolate is amazing: tried both the 75% and 65% cocoa. love the vanilla bean raspberry donut but it wasn’t there the second time i visit which was unfortunate. tried the almond cake. it was decent. i also noticed that the cafe transforms into a cool bar after 6pm and it was game’s night (on a tue)

A beautiful spot inside the Tate Modern. Surprisingly good coffee, which was a lovely surprise. The sofa area is very cozy, and the views over the garden add a really relaxing touch. Staff were super friendly and welcoming. There’s also a wide variety of food options available. Great place to take a break during your visit!

I love dropping by The Corner after seeing an exhibition at the Tate - or in fact even when I’m just passing by. The food is gorgeous and they have a fantastic selection of craft beers! Stop by if you’re in the area.

Nice ambience, good polite and professional service. The food is nice, slightly on the expensive side but good quality and tasty. There is quite a lot of both indoor and outdoor seating but it does get pretty busy at peak times.

We've been there a week ago and we had a good time, the place is spacious, the sofa areas are so cosy, toilets very clean, staff very nice and friendly, the only minus to this location was the menu prices, a bit overpriced but this is London probably, nothing cheap like before
