NEW LEADERSHIP IN THE KITCHEN

Tate Modern’s Restaurant embarks on an exciting new chapter under the leadership of renowned chef Chris Gillard and restaurant manager James Pritchard.

With over 15 years of experience at the iconic St John, Chris brings his passion for seasonal produce and contemporary British cuisine to Tate Modern.

Visitors can expect a thoughtfully crafted menu that highlights the best of British ingredients, featuring bold vegetarian dishes and inventive classics. Gillard’s new menu aligns perfectly with Tate Modern’s atmosphere, providing diners with the chance to experience art through food.

Trained in France and with experience managing acclaimed restaurants such as Grain Store, St John, and Silo, James Pritchard is known for his love for wine and exceptional service. His leadership will ensure a seamless, guest-centred experience to complement our new menu.

The Restaurant offers a relaxed yet refined dining experience and the ideal setting to showcase our wine list from the cellars at Tate Britain. Our menu changes seasonally to celebrate produce picked at its peak - with added inspiration from the art and artists in our collection.

This Autumn we are celebrating Mike Kelley: Ghost and Spirit. Our new Head Chef, Chris Gillard, has created a special menu inspired by Mike Kelley’s inventive approach to art. Drawing on the rich cultural landscape of Kelley’s Detroit roots, the menu reflects iconic American flavours and traditions, reimagined through a contemporary lens to celebrate both his artistic vision and the culinary heritage of the region.

If you have a query or would like to reserve a space for a special occasion do contact our team on +44 (0)20 7401 5103 or email restaurant@tate.org.uk who will be happy to get back to you within 24hrs
