Bankside is fast becoming a true gastronomic district of London thanks to the growing popularity of Borough Market and the growing number of independent restaurants in and around the market and some great industry accolades including Tate Modern's Café 2 Time Out Eating and Drinking Award for 'Best Family Restaurant', The Rake's ‘Best Beer Experience' at the Class Bar Awards 07 and 'Best Bar' in the 2007 Time Out Eating & Drinking Awards, Roast's Good Food Guide 'Best Breakfast in London' award and Amano's '2008 Sandwich Designer of the Year' award.
