We were staying at the docklands and finding it slightly dreary and empty on a bank holiday. On an attempted exploration of the area we stumbled up on Booty's Riverside Bar. It's was hidden on Narrow Street, about five minutes away from the Canary Warf Four Seasons. Booty's boasts of being a wine bar, and a large selection indeed they had. I really appreciated the marine design and the open view on to the raging Thames. It felt like being in a cabin of an old pirate ship.
They serve traditional British pub grub and fresh fish from Billingsgate Market. Yorkshire ham salad was pink and bountiful. The prawn cocktail was fresh and crunchy while the grilled fish smiled a satisfied grin from its wholesome position on my plate.
A very intimate, cosy place, great for those misty winter evenings and private conversations. Lets admit it - Docklands is the edge of the world.
