About Venue
Located on Victoria Embankment directly opposite the South Bank, Woods Quay is one of London's newest and most distinctive riverside event venues. Moored on the River Thames in front of the Savoy Hotel, the award-winning floating venue combines contemporary architecture, panoramic views and exceptional hospitality to create an extraordinary setting for corporate events, private dining, brand activations and exclusive celebrations.
Designed by RIBA award-winning architects, the venue rises and falls with the tide while offering uninterrupted views across the Thames towards the London Eye, Houses of Parliament and South Bank skyline. Natural materials including terrazzo, oak, brass and steel create sophisticated interiors that blend seamlessly with expansive outdoor terraces and private moorings, delivering a unique event experience unlike anywhere else in London.
Operated by Woods' Silver Fleet, the venue offers exclusive hire with exceptional catering and the option to combine waterside events with luxury river yacht charters, creating a truly memorable destination for corporate entertaining in the heart of Westminster.
Event Spaces
Cormorant Deck
The dramatic entrance to Woods Quay is a spacious covered riverside deck where lofty ceilings, oak columns and terrazzo flooring frame panoramic views across the Thames. Open to the river on one side, the space enjoys natural light and fresh air while remaining sheltered, creating a spectacular arrival experience and a flexible setting that seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor entertaining.
East Wing
The East Wing centres around an elegant open kitchen and chef's table concept, where floor-to-ceiling glazing captures ever-changing river views. Contemporary interiors, natural materials and an intimate atmosphere create a sophisticated dining environment that showcases live culinary experiences while maintaining a strong visual connection with the Thames.
West Wing Bar
Positioned at water level with wraparound glazing and an outdoor terrace, the West Wing offers an impressive bar space overlooking Cleopatra's Needle, the London Eye and Westminster skyline. A striking central bar and comfortable lounge seating create an elegant environment for drinks receptions and informal gatherings while maximising the spectacular riverside setting.
Private Mooring Pontoon
Stretching approximately 160 metres along the Thames, the private mooring pontoon extends the venue beyond its internal spaces to create one of central London's most unique outdoor event environments. The expansive riverside platform provides exceptional opportunities for outdoor receptions, installations, entertainment and even vehicle or yacht arrivals, all against one of London's most iconic panoramic backdrops.
