Shakedown Bar & Restaurant - Tower Bridge

About

Shakedown, nestled in the vibrant Tower Bridge area of London, is more than just a Cocktail Bar, Espresso Bar, and All dining restaurant—it's a living testament to the city's intriguing past. Back in 1905, our hotel served as a bustling police station, and the restaurant floor was home to 22 holding cells in the basement, each holding a story of its own. The name "Shakedown" itself harks back to the thorough searches the police conducted on their prisoners, and it's a name that has stood the test of time, just like the stories etched into the very fabric of our establishment. At Shakedown, we're excited to introduce you to a culinary experience rooted in the rich tradition of Cichetti, a cherished Italian custom of enjoying small, flavourful bites meant for sharing and savouring with friends and loved ones. Our menu not only features an enticing selection of pizzettas, pasta, and prosecco but also embraces the essence of Cichetti.
