Oh my. I know the Brits aren’t exactly known for stellar culinary history, but I have had better sandwiches at Pret or EAT. That said, the space is lovely and would be an excellent place for a pint or glass of wine with colleagues, just not, in my opinion a place to get a full meal.

Came here after work with colleagues and a vendor for drinks. The beer on cask was decent and focused mainly on trying all of them as I was visiting the UK. As they say, when in Rome… I was quite hungry and miserable as a result when we arrived here. Unfortunately, the vendor only ordered a few appetizer selections — different cheeses, wings, fries, etc. In summary, I was extremely hungry and was still disappointed by the food. Making matters worse, it was not filling in the least. Looking at the prices, I was quite happy I was not on the hook for any portion of the bill that is for sure. I would have given 1 star, but it was a very nice setting and we relaxed on the couches /easy chairs slightly away from the bar.

Does exactly what it says on the tin in tune with the rest of the chain. A nice quiet place for a confidential chat or a good back room for a bigger buffet. Nice to see today that they no longer hide the Shepherd Neame Masterbrew behind a Davy’s Bitter sign. And it drank well.

This bar is a favourite with the ‘blokes’ in Canary Wharf who want a good pint or a nice bottle of wine. Doesn’t ring my bell, a bit too spit-and-sawdust for my taste. Give me the cocktail bar over the river
