The Concept

Bustronome is a high-end double-decker bus that stands out for its panoramic dining room. Discover the most beautiful views of London while enjoying the best of its gastronomy, whatever the weather! A delightful way to discover food and wine while (re)visiting the most beautiful monuments of a cultural capital.

Our luxury bus seats a maximum of 38 patrons all seated on the top deck, giving every guest a 360° view. The kitchen is at the rear of the lower deck, together with a cloakroom, guest loo and the driver’s quarters.

The tour starts at Victoria Embankment and heads East to Tower Bridge then West to the Royal Albert Hall, with all the regular requests in between! Lunch is a four course meal running from 12.15-14.00. Afternoon tea runs from 15.00-16.45 and Dinner is more leisurely – from 19.15-22.00.

We cater well to special events such as birthdays and anniversaries as well as private hire for groups taking in a West End show or looking for something different as a corporate space with champagne reception, VIP transport, whatever you can think of!

Our Founders

Bustronome is a unique concept to London but was conceived in Paris five years ago. The idea came to co-founders Jean-Christophe Fournier and Bertrand Mathieu after wondering how to take pop up food carts to the next level.

The food at pop ups is often fantastic, but the shine can be taken off by not having anywhere comfortable to sit. Once seated, Bertrand felt he was missing out on the sights of the cities he was in. So why not combine the best of it all?

Our Chef

Vincent Thiessé has been the creative director for Bustronome since its launch in October 2014.

Vincent creates accessible, seasonal and contemporary French cuisine using other elements from around the world. He has adapted his skills to cooking on wheels, and brings together an aesthetic and harmonious meal on your plate.

Customer Reviews

Great experience. I took my friends parents on this as they were visiting London only for a couple of days. Got to see almost all of the key monuments in comfort and enjoy a delicious dinner together.

 


What an amazing must-do experience! The tour took us all around London’s most important landmarks. Excellent and professional service. We had a gourmet 4 courses lunch and the food was very high quality. You should definitely add this to your bucket list.

Perfect for couples to celebrate or just enjoy the evening. Delicious food, great wines and fun so see surprised people faces when they see you dining on double decker bus. Highly recommend.
