The BEST Brunch Spots in Canary Wharf 2026 (from a Londoner)

Looking for the best brunch in Canary Wharf? Here’s where I’d go for bottomless brunch, breakfast, rooftop views, live music, free-flowing wine and a slower weekend catch-up—including current prices, timings and what to know before you book.

When someone says Canary Wharf, a few images tend to come to mind.

Skyscrapers. Busy bankers. A sea of very impressive coats moving between meetings.

But having lived just a stone’s throw from Canary Wharf, I’d add one more: a very good weekend brunch scene.

I’ve spent plenty of mornings and afternoons around the Wharf, from big bottomless tables with friends to slower breakfasts before walking the docks. And the choice has grown far beyond the handful of corporate restaurants people still imagine when they think of the area.

You can have Japanese robatayaki with free-flowing wine at ROKA, a breakfast naan and chai at Dishoom, cocktails with your brunch at The Alchemist or eggs 37 floors above London at Bōkan.

There’s some history sitting beneath all that glass too. The West India Docks opened in 1802, long before Canary Wharf became London’s second financial district, and the surviving warehouses around West India Quay still hold a much older Docklands story.

So yes, come hungry. But leave time to look around once the plates are cleared.

In this guide, I’m breaking down the best brunch in Canary Wharf for bottomless drinks, breakfast, views, live jazz, groups, private dining and a genuinely nice weekend meal—plus what I’d book afterwards.

Shall we?

What I’d Do After Brunch in Canary Wharf

Take a Hot Tub Boat Through the Canary Wharf Docklands

For a very different post-brunch plan, I’d book the Hot Tub Boat Guided Historical Docklands Cruise.

You’ll spend around 75 minutes floating through the Canary Wharf docks in warm water while a guide talks you through the area’s history. Drinks are available to buy from the boat bar, and the small-group setup works especially well for birthdays or a weekend with friends.

Bring swimwear and a towel!

Where to Stay Near Canary Wharf Brunch Spots

If you want to be cheeky and combine Canary Wharf brunch with an overnight stay, I personally recommend TRIBE London Canary Wharf.

I stayed here for a London staycation and really rated the breakfast buffet at Feels Like June downstairs (one of my top Canary Wharf brunch recommendations).

It’ll also put you next to Canary Wharf’s Dishoom—one of my other top brunch recommendations!

For a completely different vibe: choose Novotel London Canary Wharf.

It has an indoor heated pool, a sauna and the Bōkan restaurant, bar and rooftop terrace across its upper floors. And you guessed it, pretty incredible brunch.

• Where I’d stay (based on my own experience) for a cool breakfast: TRIBE London Canary Wharf.
• Where I’d stay for a pool, rooftop and high-floor views: Novotel London Canary Wharf.
• What I’d book afterwards: the Hot Tub Boat Guided Historical Docklands Cruise.
• Best free addition: London Museum Docklands, inside a surviving West India Quay warehouse.
• For the full neighbourhood plan: use my things to do in Canary Wharf guide and Canary Wharf hotel guide.

1. Big Easy Canary Wharf: Best Bottomless Brunch for Value

Address: Park Level, Crossrail Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AR

At this point, I should be an official sponsor of Big Easy Canary Wharf. I’m always talking about it!

But for good reason. The American Bar.B.Q and crabshack has live music, giant portions and one of the easiest bottomless brunch offers to understand in Canary Wharf.

The current brunch starts from £34.50 per person for unlimited Bar.B.Q, a whole lobster, Texas steak or a steak-and-lobster option. Add £5 for free-flowing prosecco, house lager, frozen mojitos or wine during the two-hour table sitting.

It’s available on Saturdays, Sundays and Mondays until 4pm, with a maximum table size of 12 on the standard offer. I’d book this one when the plan is unapologetically food, drinks and leaving very full.

My drink pick: the frozen mojito.

---

2. Bōkan 37: Best Canary Wharf Brunch with a View

Address: Floors 37–39, 40 Marsh Wall, London E14 9TP

If you like your brunch with a view, head up to Bōkan 37.

The restaurant sits on the upper floors of Novotel London Canary Wharf, with delicious views of London and the Docklands to accompany brunch.

Bōkan’s restaurant brunch is currently a Saturday affair, running from 12:30pm–4:30pm, with last orders listed at 2:30pm.

Post-brunch, make sure to leave enough time to head upstairs for rooftop drinks afterwards.

---

3. ROKA Canary Wharf: Best Brunch with Free-Flowing Wine

Address: 4 Park Pavilion, 40 Canada Square, London E14 5FW

If free-flowing wine is your thing, ROKA Canary Wharf may be the brunch for you.

This is Japanese robatayaki rather than pancakes-and-eggs territory, with a current weekend menu that brings sharing plates to the table first, followed by one main per person and a dessert platter to finish. Expect dishes along the lines of sashimi, gyoza, glazed ribs, salmon teriyaki and skewers from the robata grill.

Brunch currently starts from £59.50 per person. The wine supplement is £22.50 per person and includes red, white, rosé and sparkling wine throughout the meal, plus a Bellini on arrival.

It runs on Saturday daytime and all day Sunday, making it one of the most flexible Sunday brunch options in Canary Wharf. There’s also a children’s menu, and under-fives currently dine complimentary.

I’d choose ROKA for a birthday, a genuinely excellent group meal or a brunch that feels like your main Canary Wharf activity for the day.

---

4. Pergola on the Wharf: Best Saturday Party Brunch

Address: Crossrail Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 5AR

Plants, huge windows, waterside views and a brunch that fully intends to become a party. We’re going to Pergola on the Wharf.

The current Saturday bottomless brunch costs £60 per person and includes three courses with 90 minutes of free-flowing drinks. Expect DJs, flowing cocktails and a room that’s unlikely to remain quietly seated once the afternoon gets going.

This isn’t my pick for a calm coffee and a life update. But if you’re keen on a celebration, a bigger group or a Saturday where brunch is the main event—come here.

Pergola also offers private and semi-private hire, so it’s worth looking at if you’ve got a big party.

---

5. The Sipping Room: Best Waterside Brunch Catch-Up

Address: 16 Hertsmere Road, West India Quay, London E14 4AX

Inside a Grade II-listed warehouse overlooking the docks at West India Quay, you’ll find The Sipping Room.

The menu changes seasonally, and the restaurant opens from 10am on Saturdays and Sundays. Lovely for a dockside brunch catch-up.

It’s also only a few minutes from London Museum Docklands, making it especially easy to turn brunch into a proper West India Quay afternoon.

---

6. Boisdale Canary Wharf: Best for Brunch and Live Music

Address: Cabot Place, Canary Wharf, London E14 4QT

If the soundtrack matters just as much as the food, look at Boisdale Canary Wharf.

The Hine Bar weekend brunch is their best brunch deal, with two courses, a complimentary Boisdale Bellini and DJ-led music for £39.50 per person. You can also add 90 minutes of free-flowing red, white and sparkling wine for £25.

For actual live jazz, soul or swing, book one of the second-floor Saturday or Sunday lunches through the Boisdale live-music calendar. The menu changes with the event and season, but dishes can include delicious bits like lobster or shellfish bisque, Dunkeld smoked salmon, haggis, roast beef and other Scottish-leaning plates.

I’d choose Boisdale when you want to sit down for the afternoon in Canary Wharf. It’s especially good for parents, birthdays, live-music lovers or anyone who wants brunch to be a proper occasion.

---

7. Brother Marcus Canary Wharf: Best East Mediterranean Brunch

Address: Reuters Plaza, YY Building, London E14 5HX

Right in the heart of Reuters Plaza, you’ll find East Mediterranean food at Brother Marcus Canary Wharf.

This is where I’d send you for shakshuka, good coffee, freshly squeezed juices and generous plates. Their signature brunch menu is served on weekends, with the Canary Wharf kitchen currently running it until 4pm on Saturdays and 2pm on Sundays.

There’s weekday breakfast from 8am–midday too, so it works just as well for a breakfast meeting as it does for a long Saturday brunch.

The large south-facing pergola has its own bar and retractable roof, making this one especially useful for a group. They also do larger bookings if you need.

---

8. Caravan Canary Wharf: Best All-Round Brunch and Coffee

Address: Unit 2, Reuters Plaza, London E14 5AJ

Caravan Canary Wharf sits beside Konstantin Grcic’s Six Public Clocks, with the stripped-back interiors, globally inspired food and all the speciality coffee the iconic restaurant group is known for.

It’s one of the safest all-round choices if half your table wants proper brunch, someone mainly cares about coffee and another has already moved mentally onto lunch.

The menu changes, but Caravan’s strength is its range rather than one novelty dish: think breakfast plates, grains, eggs, sweet options, cocktails and its own roasted coffee all under one roof.

I’d choose it for a less boozy Saturday brunch in Canary Wharf, an easy first date or a big group brunch catch-up with a menu that pleases even the fussiest.

---

9. Feels Like June: Best Hotel Brunch and Breakfast Buffet

Address: 15 Water Street, Wood Wharf, London E14 5GX

Feels Like June is a sunny-looking all-day restaurant inside TRIBE London Canary Wharf, with a very impressive brunch.

Its California-inspired kitchen serves a breakfast burrito made of dreams, with an à la carte menu that moves seamlessly through classic breakfast dishes, brunch plates, salads and later all-day food.

The restaurant opens early for hotel breakfast, with weekend service currently running until 11am before the day moves into brunch and lunch. It’s especially handy if you’re staying here overnight.

Its Wood Wharf location is part of the appeal too. You can walk straight towards the water, Jubilee Park, Dishoom and Canary Wharf’s public art once you’re done.

---

10. Dishoom Canary Wharf: Best Breakfast in Canary Wharf

Address: 13 Water Street, London E14 5GX

Technically, Dishoom Canary Wharf is more breakfast than long, late brunch—but when it comes to a restaurant as iconic as Dishoom, it’s worth waking up for.

If you want to eat early and still have the entire day ahead, come for a bacon, sausage or egg naan roll, Akuri and as much chai as your table can manage.

Breakfast is currently served from 8am–11:45am on weekdays and 9am–11:45am on weekends. You can book to be first in line or walk in, with queues usually much lighter in the morning than they become later in the day.

For groups of ten or more, Dishoom also offers a Breakfast Feast until 11:30am, currently priced at £22 per person. So lovely for a birthday breakfast, a work gathering or a large table.

---

11. The Ivy in the Park: Best Polished Weekend Brunch

Address: 50 Canada Square Park, London E14 5FW

The Ivy in the Park is best for a polished brunch in Canary Wharf.

The restaurant sits beside Canada Square Park, with the familiar Ivy combination of patterned interiors, leafy details and a menu that works great for several generations around one table (in other words—fabulous for your nan’s birthday).

Weekend and bank-holiday brunch currently runs from 11am–4pm. The menu includes classics such as Eggs Benedict and Eggs Royale, alongside larger mains if your brunch has drifted firmly into lunch.

For private dining, the Butterfly Room can be booked for breakfast, lunch and dinner, with its own dedicated events setup. They also sell gift cards if you’d like to gift a brunch at The Ivy!

---

12. The Alchemist Canary Wharf: Best Cocktail Bottomless Brunch

Address: Reuters Plaza, London E14 5AJ

The Alchemist Canary Wharf is best if your brunch group cares just as much about the drinks arriving at your table as the dishes that’ll come after them.

Their London brunch currently starts from £40 per person for one dish and three cocktails. Add £10 to make the selected serves bottomless for 90 minutes.

There are earlier and later sittings across Saturday and Sunday, so it works whether your idea of brunch begins at 10am or lunch has already become the afternoon.

I’d choose it for a birthday group or a louder weekend catch-up!

---

13. La Vista Canary Wharf: Best Low-Key Local Brunch

Address: Unit 27, Skylines Village, Limeharbour, London E14 9TS

And lastly, for something away from the glossy Canada Square brunch crowd, save La Vista Canary Wharf.

It’s a local café and restaurant in Skylines Village, great for a quieter breakfast, coffee or a casual plate without needing a set menu, 90-minute drinks window or giant group booking.

Keep it in mind if you’re staying closer to South Quay or want to support a smaller local spot in Canary Wharf.

No set brunch menu—visit in person for their specials!

Where to Go for Breakfast in Canary Wharf

For an actual morning breakfast rather than a noon bottomless sitting, I’d narrow it down like this:

• Feels Like June for the breakfast buffet I personally rated during my stay at TRIBE.
• Dishoom Canary Wharf for naan rolls, Akuri and chai before 11:45am.
• Brother Marcus for East Mediterranean breakfast and coffee from 8am on weekdays.
• Caravan for speciality coffee and a flexible all-day menu.
• The Ivy in the Park for a more polished breakfast before the weekend brunch menu begins.
• Bōkan for an early hotel breakfast with a high-floor view.

Best Canary Wharf Brunch for Groups and Private Dining

Pergola on the Wharf

Canary Wharf is one of the easier parts of London for a large brunch table, private dining or a work group—mainly because the restaurants were built with far more space than the tiny dining rooms you’ll find in central London.

• ROKA Canary Wharf can host groups in the main restaurant, at its Chef’s Table or through an exclusive hire.
• Brother Marcus has a covered south-facing pergola and dedicated group and event menus.
• The Ivy’s Butterfly Room is the smartest private dining option for breakfast, brunch or lunch.
• Dishoom Canary Wharf has semi-private spaces and a Breakfast Feast for groups of ten or more.
• Big Easy Canary Wharf accepts brunch groups of up to 12 on the standard offer, with separate group arrangements for larger parties.
• Pergola on the Wharf offers spaces for private dinners, parties and corporate events.
• Boisdale Canary Wharf is especially useful when you want private dining and live music under one roof.

For any large table, make sure you book rather than hoping to walk in. Also check whether the whole group needs to choose the same flowing-drinks package (many bottomless brunch venues require it nowadays).

---

Practical Tips for Brunch in Canary Wharf

• Book the bottomless brunches: Big Easy, ROKA, The Alchemist, Boisdale and Pergola are all much safer with a reservation, particularly for a Saturday group.
• Check which Canary Wharf station you need: Canary Wharf Underground Station, the Elizabeth line station and the DLR entrances are close but not identical. West India Quay restaurants may be easier from West India Quay DLR.
• Read the drinks rules: “Bottomless”, “free-flowing” and “three cocktails included” aren’t the same offer. Check the time limit, included serves and whether everyone at the table must participate before you go.
• Remember breakfast finishes early: Dishoom stops breakfast at 11:45am, while several weekend brunch menus don’t begin until closer to midday.
• Leave time for the neighbourhood: use my things to do in Canary Wharf guide for more recommendations.
• Check current menus: although this guide is updated regularly, prices, seasonal dishes and event-style brunches may change. Always check menus and each restaurant’s official website before you go.

Final Thoughts on the Best Brunch in Canary Wharf

Canary Wharf brunch has changed a lot since I first lived nearby.

The area still does the large, polished dining room very well. But now you can choose between a £39.50 Big Easy brunch with free-flowing drinks, Japanese plates at ROKA, a Dishoom breakfast before the crowds, an East Mediterranean table at Brother Marcus, live music at Boisdale or a full Saturday party at Pergola.

My personal starting point is still Big Easy when the priority is bottomless value and a very full table. I’d choose ROKA for the best food-led special occasion, Dishoom for breakfast and Bōkan when the view matters most.

And for the stay itself, TRIBE London Canary Wharf gets my personal recommendation because I’ve stayed there and genuinely enjoyed the breakfast at Feels Like June (especially the breakfast burrito!). Compare it with Novotel London Canary Wharf when you want a pool, a rooftop and bigger skyline views.

Then, rather than heading straight home, walk around the old docks, visit London Museum Docklands or make the day extra memorable with the hot tub boat.

Enjoy your brunch!

Happy Londoning,
