What you didn't know about Duck & Rice.
Duck & Rice builds its identity around contemporary Chinese comfort dining, balancing Cantonese-inspired cooking, pub culture, and elevated social atmosphere inside one of London's most ambitious modern redevelopment districts.
Chinese cooking anchors the experience completely, roast duck, dim sum, noodles, rice dishes, crispy meats, and wok-fried comfort food layered with richness, texture, and bold flavor while remaining approachable and highly shareable. Drinks shape the atmosphere equally. Cocktails, pints, and wine flow naturally beside communal plates, reinforcing the restaurant's hybrid identity as both dining destination and social gathering space. Around Battersea Power Station, where industrial heritage now overlaps with luxury living, nightlife, and destination dining, places like this define the district's newer cosmopolitan identity. This restaurant feels polished, energetic, and deeply tuned into contemporary London dining culture.
How to fold Duck & Rice into your trip.
Duck & Rice works beautifully as a lively dinner destination or cocktails-and-sharing-plates evening while exploring Battersea Power Station and the Thames riverside after dark.
Visit in the evening when the restaurant fully settles into its busiest rhythm and the surrounding Battersea skyline begins glowing beside the river outside. Order communally rather than individually, allowing roast duck, dim sum, noodles, and drinks to arrive gradually across the table while the atmosphere of the room builds around you naturally. The restaurant rewards lingering and social energy. Stay long enough for the warmth of the lighting, cocktails, and conversation to fully settle into the evening while the movement of Electric Boulevard continues softly outside beyond the windows. Afterward, continue toward nearby rooftop bars or riverside walks carrying the polished vibrancy of the meal into the rest of the night. Duck & Rice folds naturally into a London itinerary because it captures one of the city's defining contemporary pleasures, globally inspired dining thriving inside London's constantly evolving architectural and cultural landscape.
