We’ve long loved Canary Wharf and it's rich history of the nearby Docklands and Billingsgate Market, yet Blacklock in a glass tower never quite fit. One look at an old disused warehouse nestled cosily in the corner of Canary Wharf underneath the train tracks of the North Dock and we knew we had found home. Feel the comforting rumble of trains passing overhead conjuring memories of some of our favourite haunts underneath the bridges in NYC - a place where, with the blinds rolled down and away from prying eyes, a decadent lunch can swiftly roll into dinner.

Great restaurant for families, and perfectly suited my gluten free friend. Our kids ate everything and my little boy was able to nap in his buggy as the staff kindly added space for me to bring it in next to our table. The food was tasty, the portion sizes decent and all reasonably priced, particularly for the location.

Beautiful venue, intimate and warm setting. Server forgot our bread (which we paid for) until after the appetizers came out which was a bit pointless. Steaks are good quality. The tables are very close together.
