"Skylon is a curate 's egg. The location with stunning wide river view is hard to beat, but you are literally paying for that. The staff are welcoming and attentive (apart from not taking coats, which are hard to accomodate at the tables . Skylon 's prices in particular on drinks are over the top for the fare on offer. Skylon is the 'brasserie ' end ' of the room, but two of us still paid £150 for 2 courses each and a £40 bottle of wine between us (one of few 'affordable ' options on the list . My halibut was delicious but inexcusably tepid it was cooked OK so must have sat around before despatch to table. Frankly if I have to spend that much to enjoy this venue I will stick to the Skylon Grill at the other end of the room in future at least there are tablecloths and comfy seats there ; (However, I was lucky not to book there this time there was a large and very noisy party taking place in the Grill . Heads up for the over 40 's the dim lighting makes a nice ambience but doesn 't work well with menus printed in grey, small font. Reading glasses and phone light recommended!"

"We had a fantastic evening. Table for 4 social distancing adhered to and other safety measures in place. Great menu choice, including one vegetarian guest who was very impressed with the choice. Fabulous wine list. Service was lovely, informal yet professional. One very happy table thank you we will be back!"

"We came here on a bit of a whim, owing to its central location right next to the Baths. Having not booked we were greeted warmly and offered a table near the stage. It was wonderful to be able to hear the musicians so well but it wasn’t so loud as to be overly distracting and we were still able to converse and enjoy our afternoon tea with this accompaniment. The room itself deserves comment too- absolutely beautiful, it feels like a decidedly appropriate setting for a grand afternoon tea. The food itself was delicious. Sandwiches, savouries and cakes were almost perfect and you could taste their quality. When you’re presented with an afternoon tea it always feels you’re being ripped off, as though there is very little food for your money but, as ever, it was very filling and just the right amount of food. The quality and attention to detail further justifies the price for me. After our warm welcome the service deteriorated a little as well. It was nigh impossible to get a second pot of tea/ some hot water and when I did manage to ask it was treated almost as an imposition. It also took us an age to be able to pay the bill- although I could have happily sat in that splendour all afternoon."

"Been here for breakfast many times but never for dinner before. Atmosphere was as expected, the place has a shabby elegance of bygone days. We were very lucky and sat on a table in the window with wonderful views of the lead and the sea. There were a number of vegetarian choices that weren’t the usual pasta or risotto. Some thought had been put in to them. I would say that a few “tweaks” were needed with my choice of halloumi/chips/onion rings, mainly being a longer cooking time for the chips and halloumi. Partners steak was good evidently. Service was very good. Overall a pleasant evening that is good value. We would return!"

"Before it was a trend Ian Brown was all about food provenance and seasonality. He's so slick at it now that you could take it for granted. If you want to eat fresh, Scottish food, cooked to order for you by an experienced chef who is personally there on the tools here is the place. Ians wife runs the room and really adds to the experience with on point customer interaction. Go! Service: Dine in"

"Been several times and usually a great meal. Last night was a bit car crash as they were massively understaffed. Dishes arrived late or out of order and three of us had well done steaks when we asked for medium rare. One guy basically covering the whole floor who did a brilliant job but can’t be expected to perform miracles Will go back as I know it’s normally not like this but they need to avoid this happening again."

"quality of marketing for food delivery. drive to north of rustest, direction docks, they will see a series of humble hangars. go through the door of the next, the powder magazine and prepare to be woven. it has a lounge feeling, with enhanced brightness and generous support of comfortable seating. there is a hip-touch to its mix of old and new inner-queues. service is professional, precise and perceptible. eating is exciting, an excellent mix of traditional and modern cuisine that influenced British culture. the food proportions are enormous and the price is perfect. powder magazine is a place to relax and socialize at the weekend, more than a full culinary experience. So they come and take a friend or 3, take a few menus, enjoy."

"It was a very comfortable, relaxing, safe and enjoyable experience. Even in a pandemic, Brickyard follows the guidelines and has many seating options with space around you. The food is always 10/10 and a great variety of craft beers on tap, with great cocktails too. If you enjoy the beer or cocktail, you can buy some growlers to go. The Pornstar Martini is my favorite because it’s not so sweet it makes your teeth hurt like other places. You can just sit back and enjoy it and take a double to go home . The Service is always friendly, honest and prompt. We enjoy their brunches too their Mimosa is out of this world and Bailey Lattes hit the spot. For this holiday season, I’m loving their Christmas Sando and their Korean Pancakes are always a staple with our family and group of friends. The Burgers are tasty too they even have a Vegan Burger my vegan friends love. The Chicken wings are yummy in the tummy with all of the variety of flavors tickling your tastebuds and Vegan friendly options of “cauliflower wings” so you can get something tasty. If you like real American hot spicy Brickyard has unlocked this formula and know how to do it well while not destroy the taste of the food. Again Brickyard’s food is 10/10"

"Worst things first: I think the service could have been a bit better as the waiters weren't so attentive. It was quite difficult to get their attention. Also I asked for lukewarm water as my wife was ill and we were still served chilled water. I asked for the bill to come with the card reader as we were in a rush and the bill still came alone and we had to ask for the card reader again. Other than this the ambience is really really nice. You get a nice view of Canary wharf and although the pillars block the view a bit, I guess those are required to hold the building up haha so it is what it is. Really nice view which every table can appreciate, beautiful interior design my wife referred to it as having a homely feel. I would definitely come back during the day as Im sure it would like marvellous with the sun coming through the full length windows how much better at sunset!! The food was exquisite too. I had eaten beforehand so didn't eat much: just squid rings and the bread selections. Its small but it goes a long way when restaurants heat up the butter so its soft and spreadable on nice warm and soft bread. The squid rings were good too, not too rubbery like many are these days. My wife had a bit more: the cod on mash with caviar (or just roe, not sure) and fries. The fries were so so nice, perfectly salted and fried. The cod and mash was DIVINEEE. Every bite that I stole from her was eye shut inducing. Perfectly cooked cod that tasted like it came from the sea that very morning, one of the creamiest mashed potatoes I've had in a while and then the caviar/roe to add a certain texture to the after taste. Superb. Excellent restaurant, would definitely recommend and not too bad a price as well considering the high class interior and prime location in Canary Wharf."

"eating here was good, but everything else wasn't great. my friends recommended this place, but I wouldn't go back. we reserved a table, we came down when I put the chair was completely broken. ordered hot drinks and service was prompt. tee came, but the mug was dirty with mark, so I sent that back and it was kindly replaced. we ordered our food, but after 45 minutes waiting for two meals we have the waitress down, which said that the order had not gone through the kitchen originally so prepared. I ordered eier benedikt and when it arrived, there were no Hollandaise sauce in sight, so they went to the kitchen to get some on the side. we ordered a second round hot drinks that I thought they could look into the problems with the service, but they don't offer. all very chaotic and disorganized and it was not even so busy and then beat them 12.5% service fee."

"I went to the Cracking Crab twice during the Easter holidays. Both times I had my two children (5 and 8 with me. The first visit was just me and them and the second time I also had two friends with me. The setting is just beautiful. We sat right next to the window on our first visit and saw the sun go down. On our second visit we were in one of the booths but still could see the view of the beach very well. The staff are always very friendly and helpful and make my children and I feel very welcome. We try and book the earliest table we can for dinner when we have the kids with us to avoid tiredness (the children! and enhance the experience for all of us. I have also been lucky enough to go sans children with my husband on a few occasions and have had some lovely, intimate dinners at table number 1! I love seafood and wine and both are very good here. Can't wait to go back in the summer!"

"Charming pub with fantastic food, and the staff were incredibly helpful and friendly. The room was very nice, but they definitely need to install some privacy glass on the large window right in front of the toilet. It was a hassle to keep pulling the blind up and down, which is a simple fix. Rooms: 4, Service: 5, Location: 4."

"I really enjoy dining at Nude Food Beach for coffee and snacks, as well as breakfast, lunch, and dinner. The food options here are unique, and as a vegetarian, I have a great selection of interesting and delicious dishes to choose from. My meat and fish-eating friends also have plenty of good choices. The menu includes a variety of options, too. The beachside location is perfect for any season and has a fantastic atmosphere. Bon appétit!"

"I booked, in secret, for my wife's birthday. I had asked them if I could pre order the food so we didn't have to wait as we were tight on time. I also asked if they could hold onto her gift from me and present it to her with the wine. All went perfectly with superb friendly service, amazing steaks, great value red wine. In and out within 60 minutes. Perfect"

"I booked this restaurant for our 1st wedding anniversary after carefully searching restaurants in our area for reviews, it looked absolutely perfect BUT it couldn't have been more wrong, in fact the only good thing I have to say about this place is the young girl that welcomed us and did absolutely everything and I mean everything. she welcomed us, served our drinks, took our orders, served our food, cleared our table, everything. the first red flag came as soon as we sat down and were presented with a menu printed on a piece of A4 paper with not a very wide selection of things to eat maybe 5 of each, starters, main course and desert then to be told a couple of those were actually not on because ingredients had not been delivered. well we thought small menu so the food must be really good, this couldn't have been further from the truth. we both ordered brucheta to start, when it came we were presented with a piece of sliced bread probably from the co op from over the road with a mush on top that didn't look very appetizing, not fresh tomatoes and so on and so forth. then came the main I ordered chicken kiev and the wife got a pizza. the wife ate 3 pieces of her pizza because she was hungry. what was presented in front of me is another story, i paid £11 for a tennis ball size and shape of processed meat, just like you get from the supermarket on a bed of to be honest i still dont know what it was, no flavour to any of it and to cap it all of it was burnt. we didn't complain at he time because we are not the sort to do that, we dont like making a scene but this experience absolutely ruined what should have been a perfect day for us our first wedding anniversary. now i dont know whether we caught them on a bad day or what, i read all the reviews before and i have read them all again since and it doesn't make any sense, all i can say is i certainly will not be returning or recommending this place to any of my friends."
