Creative British dishes including venison skewers and snail vindaloo
"Set in a cavernous space in Canary Wharf overlooking South Dock, this newer venture takes a careful, slow-and-steady approach, with a 15-year horizon and plans to roll out two private dining rooms and a downstairs chef’s table once the main dining room is perfected and the team is ready. Inspectors added it to The Guide after being impressed by assured cooking across a wide-ranging, something-for-everyone menu, and the waterfront setting feels like a breath of fresh air for Canary Wharf. The generous scale gives the operation room to grow without rushing." - Andrew Young
"Launched by the team behind Fallow, this vast restaurant can house up to 500 diners in the heart of Canary Wharf, all while being run with impressive slickness. Guests are spread across several dining rooms, some with counter seating, plus a lovely wrap-around terrace that boasts commanding views of South Dock. The wide-ranging menu offers something for everyone, including playful takes on British classics like maitake Cornish pasty or market fish served with parsley liquor, that's reminiscent of an East End pie and mash." - Michelin Inspector
"The team behind Fallow—one of our favourite breakfast spots—is opening a new restaurant in Canary Wharf. Roe will have a meaty, creative British menu featuring underused cuts and British produce. Think venison shiitake skewers, a snail vindaloo flatbread, and cuttlefish fried brioche. We recently checked out Roe. Read our first thoughts here. " - sinead cranna, rianne shlebak
"Best-known for a foreboding sense of dystopia and legions of Charles Tyrwhitt shirts, Canary Wharf can also add some decent places to eat to its list of personality traits. British restaurant Roe is one of them. A sibling to Fallow, this airy waterside spot has all the makings of a Patrick Bateman hangout, had he ended up in Canary Wharf versus Wall Street. There are cavernous leather booths and hunks of meat, and from behind the kitchen counter, a team of England U21-looking chefs confidently form snail vindaloo flatbreads as tables of Outlook-enthusiasts glug shiraz. It’s big, slick and, like lots about this area, more than a little deranged. The food may have little rhyme or reason to it on paper, but the bold flavours are never anything less than enjoyable. So if you’re happy with bites (rather than a meal) to remember, Roe is a fine restaurant. Start with a crudo, fill up on a venison and lardo skewer, park away a burger for good measure, and try not to check your emails before the soft serve. photo credit: Sophia Shoot photo credit: Sophia Shoot photo credit: Sophia Shoot Pause Unmute" - Jake Missing
