The Water House Project is a modern British tasting menu experience in Bethnal Green, East London.

Chef Gabriel Waterhouse opened The Water House Project with his wife, Patricia in Bethnal Green in Autumn 2021 aiming to bridge the gap between fine dining elegance and a more relaxed, comfortable atmosphere.

 Here the team serve a seasonally evolving tasting menu which changes every three months.

We rely on local, seasonal ingredients using these when at their best. 
 
We believe in using small amounts of ethically and sustainably reared meat and fish, and partnering with suppliers who share in our values. Our drink pairings are made up of either wines, sourced from small scale producers or a non-alcoholic pairing of teas, tonics and ferments made by our kitchen team.

Seasons Discovery menu - Wednesday 7pm & Saturday 1pm
(£125pp including alcoholic or non alcoholic pairing)

Seasons Signature menu - Thursday - Saturday 7pm
(£155pp including alcoholic or non alcoholic pairing)

    The wine pairing was ok, food did not have that wow factor for the prices they are charging. There are better places that are far less expensive. Wouldn't recommend it to any one.

    Absolutely outstanding food of extraordinary inventiveness, range and flavour. Although the sticker price is a lot, the drinks pairings are plentiful, so there are no add-ons and you come away with a sense of a memorable evening at a perfectly reasonable price for the quality.

    A really wonderful meal, and an absolute bargain for the price. Gabriel and the team really looked after us and the scallop dish might be one of the best I've ever had. Definitely would recommend for a special occasion or treat.
