2020 - WHAT • A • ROLLERCOASTER 🎢

Closing in March was one of the hardest things we’ve had to do, especially as we had so many bookings for the months ahead which all had to be cancelled..

We re-opened in Aug with a bang, our Saturday brunches were booming, but closing in November and T4 has been heartbreaking, although we understand it’s for the greater good..

Every brunch, dinner and drinks booking has meant so much to us and we’ve been humbled by the well wishes and support you’ve shown us, for which we can only say a huge ‘thank you’.

It’s been a real journey and trying year, so here’s to 2021 🎊

Love Steve, Kate and the SAMA Bankside team ♥️

For a great Friday or Saturday night check out SAMA Bankside, our newly opened late night bar, restaurant and events space near Blackfriars. Perfect for Beer Pong, after-work drinks, Birthdays, Hen Parties and Engagement Parties, SAMA Bankside is proving to be a hugely popular venue for those in the know...

On Friday and Saturday evenings we have our regular London Groove Dj’s playing a mix of commercial R&B, Hip-Hop, House, Pop, 90’s and noughties old skool too.

Entry is free all night and there’s no need for a guestlist either but table bookings are advised for group bookings and we have a number of booths and areas available too.
