Hawksmoor Wood Wharf is housed in an eco-friendly floating pavilion in a new riverside neighbourhood in Canary Wharf. Gently rising and falling with the tide, the main restaurant at dock-level is joined by a 120-seat waterside bar. Both include terraces with views across the water (squint your eyes and you might just see the ghosts of great ships laden with mighty lengths of timber that used to swing in and unload there). There's also a private dining room for up to 20 people named after the local legend Queenie Watts, a singer, songwriter, actor and self-confessed bawdy landlady (think Peggy Mitchell meets Joni Mitchell). The menu revolves around the best British produce the country has to offer with grass-fed dry-aged ethically reared beef, sustainable seafood from the South coast and some of the biggest hits from the Hawksmoor New York menu.

Excellent service and great food, the ambiance/view is definitely what you are paying for though. For a special occasion or celebration this place would be a stellar option. The drinks were well balanced and crafted, though definitely expensive for what you get. All of our food was excellent, well prepared and a good portion. All of the pricing is certainly inflated, much like you paying for the experience more so than the product. All in all, if you are comfortable paying for the experience it is a memorable one.

Even by Harry's standards some wonderful food here including the Coq au Vin from the Beaujolais Week menu, clearly made with very high quality chicken, and from the same menu a gorgeous burnt sugar hinted pear Tarte Tatin. On this very busy evening Chloe the front of house manager served my table herself to keep things moving briskly, thanks so much Chloe.

Everything was absolutely amazing, the food, the teas, the view, the people working there. However we did not expect the 15% service charge to be added to the price. But be had a wonderful time and do not regret at all to have chosen the Shangri-La for our tea time in London.
