Pedlar, Canary Wharf, E14

A plush wine bar on the ground floor of an impressively tall concrete tower. The décor is bright and glossy, as are many of the clients. The wine is good but drastically over-priced, as is the limited range of food, which is mostly sea-food based. OK to meet people you want to impress but there is no real ale so I wouldn't make it a regular thing and I certainly wouldn’t include in a crawl.

Upmarket bar / restaurant housed in the ground-floor lobby area of the eponymous building (the pointy one people think of when you say Canary Wharf). Additional small bar housed in a high-level mezzanine. Smart modern furniture and limited decor. No real ale, and just a poor selection of bottled beers. Only ventured in because somebody else was buying, but unlikely to return. NB - Owned by the ETM Group, who also run the nearby Gun (which couldn't be more different, except for the prices...).
