magical floating bar & restaurant with a great outdoor space

Hackney Wick , E9

The Space

Barge East is an impressive bar & kitchen based upon a historic 114 year old Dutch Barge and in 2019 rated #1 on TripAdvisor. Boasting an unparalleled location at the junction of two of London's waterways, the site offers views of the London skyline along with the Olympic stadium. With a full capacity of 370 and both beautiful outdoor spaces and a cosy indoor dining area, this location is a real gem.

Owner Ryan and Head Chef Stefano have orchestrated a seasonal menu which reflects Ryan's years cooking on yachts around the world and Stefano’s experience as a 2019 Young Chef of the year finalist.

We have a rustic outdoor space for up to 250 people

We have an amazing fully covered top deck which can used by up to 60 people all year round

We have a downstairs intimate dining space and bar for 50 people

And a Captain's cabin private dining space for 10.
