Browns Bar & Brasserie - West India Quay
Hertsmere Road, London, E14 8JJ
Adjacent and only fifty yards away from the ever growing Canary Wharf, Browns, West India Quay, has developed into the one of the Docklands most popular dining locations. Carrying on the tradition set by the company, Browns WIQ is located in a Grade II former sugar warehouse and next to one of London's most dramatic five star hotels, The Marriott, holding a truly unique position in this exhilarating part of London. In the winter months the restaurant and downstairs bar offer a warming, familiar home for the workers and shoppers of Canary Wharf. The restaurant is also conveniently located next door to a multi-storey car park and a modern twelve screen cinema. In the summer months Browns becomes The Wharf's largest outside restaurant with two stunning external patios with views of the quay-side and London's striking modern architecture.Adjacent and only fifty yards away from the ever growing Canary Wharf, Browns, West India Quay, has developed into the one of the Docklands most popular dining locations.

Continually full of workers having lunch, friends meeting for dinner or the Docklands' residents enjoying a glass of wine, Browns West India Quay is the place to meet.
Browns is a classic English restaurant with a menu that evolves rather than changes. It offers a genuine value for money experience and can also cater for large parties with a more expansive budget.
A plate of appetisers to share comes in either vegetarian or seafood antipasti form, or there are thin and crisp flatbreads topped with such delights as pulled pork and apple with a barbecue sauce, and garlic, rocket and Parmesan. Starters cleverly re-invent some of the classic brasserie dishes; expect to find crab and avocado salad, grilled oyster Florentine, pan-fried chicken livers with raspberries and freshly made soup of the day with crusty bread.
Fish and salad dishes include Browns smoked fishcakes with a tomato, red onion and mixed leaf salad served with horseradish crème fraîche. A fish and meat combination of char-grilled fillet steak or 28 day aged rib eye steak are accompanied by giant fresh water prawns. Browns' own steak, mushroom and Guinness pie is a real puller, with the calves liver and bacon not too far behind. Their fantastic selection of cheesecakes arrive in interesting flavours such as baked vanilla, strawberry, banoffee and rum and raisin, but the fact is that after years of experience in the field of what might be termed comfortable eating, Browns have it pretty well tied up. A separate private dining room and downstairs bar enables private events to be catered for in perfect surroundings for up to 200 people.
Step in to Browns for a relaxed Sunday brunch with newspapers, simple food and a well constructed Bloody Mary. Their afternoon tea is a real treat at any time, and two people can get into a friendly huddle over their Most Unusual version that introduces even more indulgence into the equation, including two large G and Ts.
There is a full wine, cocktail and Champagne list with the Champagnes being particularly well regarded for their sensible pricing. For further information, including their menu and details on private dining, do visit their Website.

REVIEWS OF Browns Bar & Brasserie - West India Quay
Paul (12 September 2008)
This is a good lunchtime venue in Canary Wharf, far smarter than a bar and not as pricey as some restaurants. There is a good varied menu and ideal for groups too.
Diane (21 April 2008)
I have visited Browns Bar and Brasserie on a few occasions, the last being on a Saturday and we had an enjoyable meal. The atmosphere, service, and fish and chips were excellent. I recommend this restaurant.
