Erica P.February 21, 2013For the big fans of the city, worth visiting the modern side of London. Go at night, is more beautiful and you will see the British leaving work for happy hour.Upvoted Oct 3
Artur FieDecember 27, 2014Awesome place during day and night. There is enormous 3 level shopping centre under ground, but be aware as it's quite pricey. During winter they open very romantic ice rink.- Elena CliftonAugust 27, 2015Cheap party shop has stocked a splendid range of birthday wearable s and fancy costumes at the cheapest prices and unmatchable quality.

Great for a stroll past the fountains, fab foodie and caffeine places and brilliant place to work/live ;)
Tam RzhOctober 14, 2016A wonderful place, people going here and there, high office buildings… Areas like this are always pretty and atmospheric.- Jack SmithJanuary 20, 2023Never say you'll meet someone by Canary Wharf Station, there are now three of them, all sharing the same name, all in separate areas (DLR, Jubilee Underground and Elizabeth Line)

James FloydMarch 27, 2013My least favourite place. The warf is a sterile version of the city built purely as a business park. The heart of Londons financial business can be found in the square mile. Save yourself the trip- Jack SmithJanuary 31, 2023Don’t be put off by first impressions on Street level, there’s a whole Underground world beneath the parks, filled with corridors of shops & restaurants that link the major buildings & transport hubs
FilmsquareAugust 23, 2013Harry and Dumbledore's Army fly Thestrals over Canary Wharf on their way to The Ministry of Magic to save Sirius Black in Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix (2007).
Zsuzsanna VorosDecember 5, 2011Contemporary Architecture in London. Come and ice-skate in the winter and sit outside in the shade of skyscrapers in the Summer
S YusopNovember 13, 2016If you're interested in modern architecture, you probably won't be disappointed with the buildings here.
Pam WatsonNovember 10, 2013Great place to stay for a different perspective on London. Lots if great food places and you can get straight onto middle of Oxford Street on Jubilee line (Bond St stop)
HISTORY UKJanuary 17, 2011The name of this place has nothing to do with birds, but with the exotic goods that were once brought here from the Canary Islands. Canary comes from the Latin ‘canaria’, so ‘Islands of the dogs’.
The GuardianApril 26, 2012"if there is one thing that capitalism does well, it's food. Moreover, the frenzy of competition in Canary Wharf means that prices are often surprisingly keen..." Read more- sugardaddie.comOctober 22, 2012There are lots of great photo opportunities around that area and loads of shops and good restaurants. Well worth a trip to the area.
Mwachala NyambuJune 12, 2012This place is always alive with the buzz of people running about with their businesses, or cool events outside the station. It's definately the business capital of london.
BBC World ServiceFebruary 21, 2011On 9th February 1996 Canary Wharf was hit by an IRA bomb after 18 months of peace. Listen to our free 10 minute history programme about the events of that day. Click this tip for the link. Read more
Dominic FeeneyOctober 15, 2014Londons business hub. Visit hear if you want to see loads of huge towering skyscrapers. Very busy min-fri but a ghost town at the weekend- Win LockwoodOctober 24, 2011Quality place to live, work and hang-out. Try the smoothie store in main mall area - they offer really healthy and lovely milkshakes!!
Nerijus MalinauskasMarch 14, 2015If you have time, take a walk around. On sunny day its very different and beutiful London
Rashid KhanJuly 6, 2013Loved the view and how clean it is. Just remember to keep warm as it can be very cold with a heavy breeze. Also, not sure why but the water smelled bad like it's sewage.

Check out the illuminated faux origami boats floating outside the station.

Fiona PalacıoğluNovember 22, 2012Canary Wharf DLR station is closer than you think to the tube.The entrance of the DLR station is a little misleading.
Kamal SekhonSeptember 1, 2011The station is huge, first timers save time by approaching help for directions. Google maps epic fail here!
