    Some dark corners and deep water round the Wharf.

    Actually I've just read some of the comments, looks like one of the CUK regulars could be one of them
    Look like since they closed the stadium it's all gone to the dogs

    I like Goodmans Restaurant (although it is across the South Quay Footbridge so some purists say it isn't on the Wharf). Good place to go when someone else is paying.

    Lunchtime venues include the Birley Salt Beef or the steak counter in Waitrose.

    The McDonalds on the roundabout closed in 2014 "for two years" whilst they build the Helix tower
    Canary Wharf's McDonald's closes as Helix towers prepare to launch - The Wharf

    Best place to eat in CW was Boisdale - Mmmmm Steak, good wine and a Cigar after it!

    Worse place to eat in CW was Crussh - What the hell was in those Salads, they tasted horrible.
    Boisdale is good.

    The Breakfast Club, Tom's Kitchen also worth a mention. Byron always a decent fallback.
    Not ventured up the John Lewis end for food much but I see there's a Bleecker St burger outlet up there now.
