Dishoom reveals November for Canary Wharf site opening


Dishoom is preparing to open in Canary Wharf in November this year; their first London opening in five years.

Nestled in a corner of Wood Wharf at 13 Water Street, the 8,000 square foot site will occupy a striking double-height building overlooking the water.

Dishoom Canary Wharf, like all Dishoom cafés, will share the team’s deep love for Bombay – its food, its history, its culture, and its quirks – whilst paying loving homage to the city's Irani cafés that were once part of the fabric of life in Bombay.

It will include a Permit Room cocktail bar in the atrium, several spaces for all-day dining, and an outdoor verandah suited to year-round enjoyment.

As ever, the Dishoom kitchen will be open every day from early until late, serving Executive Chef Naved Nasir’s breakfast menu followed by the all-day sharing menu of authentic Bombay comfort food – small plates, grills, biryanis, salad plates, rolls and curries.

Like all other Dishoom cafés, Canary Wharf will have its own signature dish (more details coming soon!). The Permit Room bar will serve a brilliant list of delicious tipples, as well as some brand-new cocktails.

As with all Dishoom restaurants, for every meal served in Canary Wharf, the team will donate a school meal to a child who would otherwise go hungry.

A meal for a meal. Dishoom works with two fantastic charities – the Akshaya Patra Foundation in India and Magic Breakfast in the UK – who provide nourishing meals to children in schools. So far, Dishoom has donated over 14 million meals and counting!
