6 Frobisher Passage, London E14 5HA

This is the Canary Wharf outpost for modern Indian restaurant group Kricket. The food here combines British ingredients with Indian cuisine with signature dishes including their samphire pakoras and Keralan fried chicken. You'll also find grills, curries and Tandoor-cooked dishes as well as a special Sunday lunch with specials on the grill. They also have a separate cocktail bar next door, Soma, that's well worth a look.

Wood Wharf, 10 Water St, London E14 5GX

Taking a big floating space just beside the Canary Wharf Hawksmoor, Maeceline is a grand French brasserie which also happens to be very good value. Dishes run from the very French (escargots) to the more standard (steak frites) with standout dishes like their uncut sheets of ravioli. That good spread on the menu means it's a great place to take the more fussy of eaters but still get a great meal out. Plus - there's unlimited bread.

After success in St James, the Fallow team have gone much bigger with this huge restaurant in Canary Wharf's Wood Wharf. It sticks to the seasonal, local and no-waste ethos that they started with Fallow, which adding completely different dishes to the menu. Here, skewers and mixed grills are the signatures and there's a much larger outdoor space as well as multiple private hire spaces.

Originally in Soho, this is the main outpost of the Aegean-inspired restaurant Hovarda. It's on one of the huge floating buildings on Wood Wharf, underneath French restaurant Marceline. As well as serving up a menu of Greek and Turkish food from the kitchen, it's also one of the few late-night bars in the area, open until 2am with DJs and artists on all night (and a great cocktail list).
