Mint Imperial
Drink by the water

Oh we do like to be beside the water, oh we do like to be beside.

So Thameside's the hottest cotch in town, non? Well for those of that persuasion the latest need-to-know patch of riverside development is none other than Imperial Wharf.

Minuses include the fact that for 300 days of the year the shade of the sky matches the hue of the buildings, and that it's near impossible for the uninitiated to reach, but in addition to one hundred thousand brand new apartments for hip, on-the-pulse urbanites (give or take eighty or so thousand and the demographic description), Imperial Wharf houses the fabulous restaurant Deep, whose fish is totally yummy and gets flown in daily from dearest darling Svenske (f*** the carbon count, gimme the gravadlax).

The latest addition to this burgeoning Fulham development and sister to Vauxhall's Riverside, The Waterside (future ventures, we're unfaithfully informed, will include Lakeside and Tyneside,

DJ Tim Westwood is also apparently considering collaborating for Peckham outpost Southside) will feature sleek contemporary interiors (good for groups) and the attraction du jour, live music, on most nights. Jazz, Latin and generic will all feature.

Waterway to spend an evening. Sorry...

The Waterside - now open
Unit 2 Riverside Tower, The Boulevard, Imperial Wharf, SW6 2SU - 020 7777 8888
