Classic dimsum restaurant that offers excellent value. Try the flowering teas , bao , and chicken rice . Serves Woodford reserve in a decent oldfashioned cocktail . Booking recommended.

If you're vegan , no worries! They will print you out a little menu of your own so you can easily choose what you want.

Ella May

Big choice of delicious dim sum which keeps getting updated according to the season so always something new to try. Great cocktail choice and good value at the happy hour

I did not like anything here. The dumplings are sticky and difficult to eat because they tear on touching. The chicken had a strong taste, also the shrimps . هجوا عنه دمبلينج الدجاج و الجمبري فيه زناخه

Clara Eloy

This is a very cool place and concept! The dim sums are delicious but the other sides are too (honey glazed ribs )

Mah Carvalho

Good service , sharing tables, wonderful cocktails and tasty food.

Martin Jarčík

I really enjoyed my self. Nice romantic atmosphere , delicious meal, friendly service . Basic set of dim sum with tea for £20 is not cheap , but it worth for it.

Julia Kate

O my goodness where do I start?! Tasty tasty tasty! Cocktails to die for. Ambience. Its a must do! ...just b aware you cant book for groups under 6.

Faraz Ahmed

They serve some of the great dim sum food in the city ! Try their Vegetable Sticky Rice and Chicken and Cashew Nut Dumplings . The prices are a bit high though!

Leiliane Valadares

The place to eat Dim Sum . And ask for lichee and ginger ice tea to drink, if you want some elegantly freshly taste.

S Marks The Spots

Ping Pong is one of those slick teahouses where dim sum lovers can indulge. Try the crispy prawn balls , the char sui buns and the lychee and lemongrass martini . Read more

Masha Fleurus

Nice ambience, delicious dim sum (all of them)! Great value set menus.

Martin Castle

Dumplings are fab and try hibiscus cocktail staff are great but prepare to wait at busy times and have a drink upstairs.

Est K

Dim sum deliciousness. Black prawn dumpling , soft shell crab , broccoli . Top it off with oolong tea and mochi for dessert !

Bamdad Dashtban

Nice place, good bar upstairs. You might be asked to share the table with others. They recommend 4 dish per person which is a bit too much

Jaimie

Fantastic value for money - Ping Pong classic for 1 is only £9.99 and includes a mixture of delicious spring rolls , dim sum and sticky rice . Quick service too - ideal for a flying lunch .

Ann Donaghey

Love this place! affordable , tasty, nice atmosphere and great cocktails !! Love the lychee and lemongrass martinis !! And a nice walk along the river to boot.

Tim O'Donovan

Really tasty food. Very busy but the staff are still very attentive. Cocktails to share are delicious!

David Baker

People say the food and service are bad here but we had great dim sum and really good service upstairs on a Sunday afternoon. May that's the place to head for - away from the crowds downstairs.

That girl ray

Can get pretty busy there at dinner time so get there early e.g. 6pm.

Ankur Banerjee

When you're picking up sticky dumplings with chopsticks, let them cool down for a bit after removing the basket cover. Otherwise it might stick to the paper cover and disintegrate.

Helen M-J

Lemongrass and lime cocktail was wonderful, as were the duck spring rolls and char siu bao

Marco Colombo

It's a chain, there are a lot around London and this one is nice and cool, every time full of people! Dim Sum are great!

Avon

They do non-halal chicken and they will check food in case of any allergies. But they don't do Happy Hour drinks . Mon to Sat open till 12 midnight unlike some other restaurants round here.

Dave Marshall

The dim sum here is great value . Service is mechanical but the cocktails make up for it. Deliveroo deliver from here

Jessi @2feet1world

Good dim sum for a chain, will seat you in cosy upstairs bar if tables are full. Good quick option pre-theatre

Dan

Dumplings disappointing, falling apart and spilling their gritty & unflavoursome filling everywhere. Loved the wonton soup however. Service was atrocious though, having to ask 4 times for our order.

Chris R (thechristophe)

This place gets mentally busy so come early. Try and stick to a set menu or bring a voucher as the price ramps up quickly.

Ekaterina Egorova

delicious food especially ribs and Vietnamese spring rolls . And don't miss to try cocktails ! Yummy!

Enzo Martinelli

Several offers during the weekend and warming flower teas

joe kebbi

The food is great and decent price

Hugd Panda

Can recommend the Sichuan Vegetable Collection (small cold pickled platter), Crunchy Golden Dumpling (only crunchy on the inside) & the Banana and Chocolate Spring Roll !!! Yummo!!! :)

Brian Cottam

Very popular because it's bloody good! Didn't have to wait more than 15 minutes. Small groups may share tables up to 8

JiJi

Lemongrass & Lime cocktail so yummy and they now have the outside sitting available (weather permitting)

Mela Mel

Pork puffs, veg sticky rice , char sui bun , all the dumplings !! Delicious

Chloe

They probably spent all the effort on designing the menu/concept rather than improve their food.

ayaka wong

Great canton food ! The best one in UK ! Yummmmmmmy!!!

Anjali Ramachandran

Standard ping pong quality - can't go wrong with dumplings and baked pork puff

Shiv Kapoor

Flowering teas are unique - great presentation, soothing taste.

Thom B

The service can be a bit unreliable, but it's well worth making use of the all you can eat menu on Sundays.

The Cultural Exposé

The dim sum here is just delicious - and meal for tenner hits the spot (but not the pocket). Recommend the prawn and spinach wrap .

blanca garcia

If you order set menus when in a group keep track of what they bring, as they tend to mess up (bring fewer things or too many!)

Elvin He

You can't go wrong with the meal for two people. Filling and well worth the price

JNET

Good place for groups. Location is perfect and easy to meet at.

Jessica Smith

Spinach and mushroom dumpling is a must!! Ping Pong's namesake cocktail also goes down a treat

Mark Mitchell

Separate menu for mushroom-free dishes available on request. Hugely appreciative of this!

Kapitan Niemand

The season special hazelnut mojito is a neat and innovative cocktail .

Mark Brassington

Large groups get to sit upstairs, they can sit at least 15 of you. Excellent service especially from our waitress Scarlet.
