Tucked away near the DLR entrance is a small spot called K10. It’s easy to miss, which is almost a crime. Their katsu curry is a golden, crunchy slab of chicken or tofu served with rice and a sauce so flavourful it feels like a hug. Price? Around £8.50.
The Best Restaurants in Canary Wharf - Canary Wharf Group
It’s not fancy. The seating is mostly communal tables where you’ll overhear someone complaining about a merger. But the portion size is enormous. You will leave full, not hungry, and possibly have leftovers for a second meal. That’s efficiency, folks.
When You Absolutely Need A Pastry
Let’s talk about Bread Ahead in the Canada Place market. Their doughnuts are the size of your face, and no, I’m not exaggerating. A single, magnificent, custard-filled doughnut costs about £4.50. Is that a lot for a pastry? Maybe. But it doubles as lunch AND dessert if you’re smart.
Alternatively, pop into Gail’s Bakery for a sausage roll. It’s flaky, buttery, and costs around £4. Pair it with filter coffee (which is cheaper than the fancy espresso drinks) and you’ve got a meal for under a tenner. You’ll feel both elegant and thrifty. A rare combo.
