Here at the Buffini Chao Deck, we have a wide range of culinary options to meet every type of event. The NT Food and Drink Team - made up of Levy and KERB - can draw on everything from London’s top independent food traders to bespoke dinner menus designed by our Executive Chef.

The team’s love of the London culinary scene, combined with their creativity, offers exciting and inspired seasonal menus, whether it’s canapés and cocktails, a barbeque on the terrace with views of the River Thames, or a formal three-course seated dinner. Using organic and locally sourced ingredients is at the core of our mission; our aim is to provide food and service that reflect the National Theatre’s vision and quality.

You can choose from our exciting menus or even talk to our team about creating something bespoke if you’re after something a little different.

Enjoy the elegance of British brasserie classics at Lasdun, with dishes like chicken and wild leek pie, potted shrimp with cucumber and toast, and rhubarb eton mess. We can arrange for Lasdun's dishes to be enjoyed at The Deck, or for you to visit the dining room on Level 1 of the National Theatre.

For sensational street food, choose from an incredible line up of KERB street food traders, including:

Sen Noods, serving their East Asian ramen bowls and dumplings, as well as Japanese fried chicken

Meltdown Cheeseburgers, slinging a range of juicy, oozy sliders and sides

Sireli, serving delicious, modern Middle-Eastern food, with a selection of flatbread wraps and small plates

All of our packages can be tailored to suit your exact requirements and we’re experienced in delivering unique catering options for any type of event.

The Buffini Chao Deck has a fully stocked bar on site, staffed by our professional and experienced bar team. When designing your event, we can advise on great wines, craft beers and can even serve a personalised cocktail unique to your event.
