Saint Katherine's Docks are easy to get to with a direct DLR from Canning Town station to Tower Gateway. This beautiful dosk-side area has a great selection of restaurants, cafes, bakeries and bars for any time of the day. We have often been here for a brunch on the weekends when the sun is out and we can eat at a table outside looking out onto the water and sailboats.
