As for this pub, well, yeah, it wasn't bad at all. I certainly liked it, and they did have some decent beers on tap as well.

Pretty nice breakfast/brunch spot offering a wide array of American classics. I ordered The All…read moreAmerican (16.75 GBP), which was a typical combo of pancakes, bacon, homestyle potatoes, a sausage, and two fried eggs. It was rather plain/ordinary but certainly not bad. I have to say, the pancakes were a bit on the dry side though. Also, the eggs were sunny side up but didn't actually seem fried at all, as they were super soft without any crispiness. In addition, they didn't even add the slightest amount of seasoning on there - at least a few pepper flakes would have been nice (although there was pepper on the table, but still). The homestyle fries were well-cooked with a good crispiness though. The restaurant has a lower level with some seating as well as a larger upper level. It has a sort of old-timey kind of vibe, with wood panels along the walls and ceiling and a little performance stage in the back. It is conveniently located right next to the Canary Wharf tube station. My waitress was average friendliness and was only moderately attentive, as she never checked up on me during my meal. She also waited until I actually got my food to bring me my water. Overall, The Breakfast Club is a solid option for breakfast/brunch in Canary Wharf with pretty much any of the classics that you could want.

My quest for breakfast nearly turned into brunch due to my questionable navigation skills and…read more(shocker) rain. In my defense there are several rivers/canals I could be walking toward. I just kept finding the wrong one, but TBC made it worth the wait. For those seeking "a little more conversation", stop at the bar for the friendly experience you'd expect. Today I headed upstairs to the VIP Section. Unlike my wife who never saw a pancake she wanted to go home with, I like a menu with plenty of pancake choices. And bonus points if not too many are "exotic" such as cake disguised as compote-smothered confectioners-sugar-laced trendy-named items. Just get me some sort of flapjack with or without fruit. Bonus points if you have short and tall (long?) stacks. And double-bonus if you print "flapjack" on the menu. Enough about the pancakes (my wife is saying). She doesn't even like breakfast so don't listen to her (she'd skip if I weren't always dragging her out somewhere for it). Her loss. But just one more pancake point: I got the blueberry short stack. It wasn't epic but it was a solid +6-7. That works, given my earlier frou-frou comments. I couldn't tell and maybe the maple syrup was imported from Canada (eh), but we are spoilt with our Vermont supply. So no points gained/lost there. I didn't get any baked beans (yes because this was breakfast), but my bacon was tasty as were my two Americanos (aka coffees). If I had for some reason wanted pre-noon beans...I'm sure they would have been lovely, along with all the other varied menu choices I didn't have room to sample. Service was fast and efficient, and they endured my lingering into late-morning. By the time I left it had stopped raining. Will wonders never cease.

This is likely to become one of my favourite local restaurants. Its recommended to book a table if…read moreyou are thinking of eating here as within a few minutes of arriving at the restaurant early on a Sunday evening it was already starting to fill up. We were greeted as soon as we arrived and shown to a nice table by the window. The ambiance of the restaurant is modern and stylish but not over fussy. There is a good mixture of table sizes, the tables are quite close together. The service throughout the meal was very friendly and attentive and the menu included specials for a starter and a main course. Prices are not cheap but not outrageous. When the food arrived it was well presented but the portion size was quite small. The food however tasted delicious, each of the starter, main course and dessert were all equally good. I'm giving the restaurant four rathe than five stars because whilst the service, ambience and food were all great the tables are a bit squashed together and the portions are quite small. I'm looking forward to visiting again soon.

Very deluding and overpriced…read more My husband and I went there to enjoy some "Italian" food. Big mistake. He ordered a pizza with burrata. Now, a burrata is always on the centre of the pizza, but what we were served was a pizza with some tiny pieces of what seemed to be a burrata, although it might have been just a common mozzarella. After we asked why it was like that, the (annoyed) reply we got was: this is how we do it. Obviously, we sent it back and just had the other pizza (nothing special, either). We paid a bit less than £50 for one pizza and some appetisers. Once again: overpriced, unprofessional and not very good food.

The server was wonderful. Very friendly. Very attentive. The menu is large. It was difficult to decide what to order. In the end I ordered the calamari as an appetizer and my husband ordered the falafel. The calamari was tender and delicious. The falafel was pretty bland. I've always had it served with tahini. This was served on hummus, but the hummus was also pretty bland. I would not order that again. For our entrees I ordered the Masukka and my husband ordered the sea bass. The Masukka was delicious but I bit into a small piece of gray plastic. I told the waiter and he apologized profusely and removed the Masukka from our check and insisted on giving us a complimentary dessert. My husband loved his sea bass. It was excellent. I had a glass of Sauvignon blanc with my dinner. It was lovely. After our waiter removed the Masukka our bill was £73. I would return again. The food and service, ambiance, and views were wonderful.

Very nice dining room, bit upscale ambiance, open kitchen. Cafe on one side, bar on the other side,…read morerestaurant in the middle. But I don't think the kitchen can handle the number of tables they have. Because they dish out food that needs more tender and care. The chicken meatballs were not cooked long enough and not warm enough. Mucver was soggy, lacking any crispiness and just too much mint added and too much cheese, there was hardly any zucchini, which is the whole point of this meze. I'm not kidding when I say I can make a better mucver at home, and I'm not even Turkish. The Lamb kofte main course was the smallest main course I have seen in a Turkish restaurant. The cous cous that came with it was so pathetically small, like it was served to a baby who just started eating solid foods last week. I looked around at other people's plates and same thing there. Honestly, a bit insulting to serve this little cous cous. There was not much salad either and so little cabbage. Normally I get served a generous serving of red cabbbage. I would have been better off getting two Meze for the same price as this main course. It's ok to serve a high price if your meat is premium quality and perfectly spiced, but this was average and not even hot in temperature. Felt like food didn't travel from kitchen to table in a reasonable time. They didn't have the Kazandibi dessert, but they had the Sutlac, this was weird because Kazandibi is basically an upside down sutlac with a caramelised surface, by the sounds of it. One is with orange and one with lemon. Could taste the orange at least, but not sure if the surface is supposed to have burnt black spots. A nice dining ambience is not enough to get me to come back. I made sure to get a good view of the river, because this is what you are paying extra up charge for.

It's centrally-located in a big park square and has a huge outside terrace with multple bar stations.

We were given menus and offered a choice water - including free tap water with ice and mint leaves, were presented a complimentary salmon amuse bouche and ordered cocktails. So far, so good. Once our delicious cocktails arrived, we ordered our starters and mains, and a bottle of wine. Unfortunately the white wine arrived warm, but it did come with an ice bucket, so it cooled down whilst we ate our starters. To our surprise, the mains (a standard burger and chips) arrived stone cold, but we let the waiter know, and he seemed genuinely apologetic and brought us fresh ones, which were hot. The food wasn't bad, but neither was it anything outstanding. The whole Parlour bar and restaurant menu has a quirky "circus" theme, with the cocktails named things like "tears of a clown" and "fairground millionaire", and the chips served in mugs or flower pots! Our burgers were served on a plastic cafeteria style lunch tray. Whilst the service was good, the prices were a little on the high side given the quality. I suppose it's the central Canary Wharf location that draws in customers looking for team lunches paid for on company credit cards.

Fortunately Carluccious was still open at the bleak hour of 22:00, which is apparently very late in London. A quick peruse of their dessert menu and we were set. The two of us ordered their Lemon Tart and Bread Pudding with Vanilla Ice Cream. The tart was very refreshing after a savory meal and the banana pudding was spot on, with the vanilla ice cream really kicking it up a notch. During our dessert time, we didn't feel rushed at all which made it a nice way to end the evening. If there is space, try to grab a seat near the large floor-to-ceiling windows. It made for great people watching for us. While we only ordered dessert, I would have liked to try some of their other main dishes. Everything was around £15 which seems pricey but the restaurant itself was spacious and had excellent mood lighting for a good night out.
