The Best Restaurants for an Escort Date Near Canning Town
Canning Town might not immediately spring to mind when you think about fine dining in London, but its location puts you surprisingly close to some excellent restaurants. The Royal Docks are virtually on the doorstep, while Canary Wharf is only a short journey away and provides considerably more choice if you want to turn an escort booking into a complete evening out.
For clients meeting a Babylon Girls escort in Canning Town, this opens up several possibilities. You can meet for dinner first, enjoy drinks overlooking the water, or simply choose somewhere sophisticated enough to provide the right beginning to your evening.
We have looked at some of the best options in and around Canning Town, concentrating not simply on the food, but on atmosphere, setting and suitability for dining with a companion.
MYMA Japanese Restaurant & Cocktails – Royal Victoria
MYMA Japanese Restaurant & Cocktails
MYMA is one of the closest options if you want something a little more polished without travelling over to Canary Wharf. Situated on Caxton Street North, close to Royal Victoria Dock, it combines contemporary Japanese food with cocktails in surroundings that work particularly well for an evening meal.
The menu covers many of the Japanese favourites you would expect, making this a good option if you and your companion would rather order several dishes and share than commit to a particularly formal dining experience.
For an escort date, MYMA's biggest advantage is probably location. You're close to the waterfront and within easy reach of Canning Town, but the surroundings feel quite different once you move towards Royal Victoria Dock.
Our verdict: A good choice for a relaxed but stylish dinner without venturing far from Canning Town.
Best for: Japanese food, cocktails and couples wanting somewhere contemporary rather than overly formal.
Nakhon Thai – Royal Victoria Dock
Nakhon Thai Restaurant
Another restaurant worth considering around Royal Victoria is Nakhon Thai on Dock Road. This established Thai restaurant is particularly convenient for the Royal Docks and offers something a little more traditional than some of Canary Wharf's glossy restaurants.
The presentation of Thai food is an important part of the experience here, and the restaurant offers all the familiar combinations of fragrant herbs, coconut, chilli and spice that make Thai cuisine such an enjoyable choice for a leisurely dinner. Perhaps you’d like to stay “on theme,” so to speak, and invite one of our Asian escorts to join you?
It is not Michelin-style fine dining, and we wouldn't pretend that it is. However, if you're looking for an attractive restaurant reasonably close to Canning Town where you can sit down for a proper meal with your companion, it deserves consideration.
It can also make sense if your plans afterwards take you back towards an apartment in Canning Town or a hotel around ExCeL and the Royal Docks.
Our verdict: More traditional than glamorous, but a convenient and enjoyable choice close to Canning Town.
Best for: A comfortable sit-down dinner without travelling into Central London.
Kricket – Canary Wharf
Kricket Canary Wharf Restaurant
If food is going to be an important part of your evening, travelling the short distance to Canary Wharf considerably expands your options.
Kricket is one of our favourites for precisely this reason. The restaurant takes inspiration from Indian cooking but presents it in a contemporary London style. It's somewhere you can go because you genuinely want a good meal, rather than simply because you need a restaurant in a convenient location.
The atmosphere also makes sense for a date. It feels fashionable without demanding the formality associated with old-school fine dining, and sharing dishes gives the meal a more relaxed character.
Canary Wharf itself is extremely convenient from Canning Town, so choosing a restaurant here doesn't mean committing yourself to a lengthy journey across London. You may also be interested in browsing our Canary Wharf escorts.
Our verdict: Probably the strongest choice on our list for clients who consider the quality of the food as important as the surroundings.
Best for: Food-focused dates and clients wanting something more interesting than conventional luxury dining.
COCO Canary Wharf – West India Quay
COCO Canary Wharf - Restaurant & Lounge
Sometimes the surroundings matter just as much as what's on the plate.
COCO at West India Quay falls more firmly into the restaurant-and-lounge category and is likely to appeal if you want somewhere glamorous for an evening with a Babylon Girls companion. Its waterside Canary Wharf location gives it considerably more of an occasion feel than most restaurants immediately around Canning Town.
This would be our choice for someone who wants dinner to lead naturally into drinks rather than treating the restaurant simply as somewhere to eat. The more luxurious surroundings also suit the experience of taking an elegantly dressed companion out for the evening.
It can be livelier than some of the alternatives on this list, so clients wanting a particularly quiet or intimate dinner with our London escorts may prefer another option.
Our verdict: One of the better choices when atmosphere and glamour are high on your list.
Best for: Dressing up, dinner and drinks, and making the restaurant part of the occasion.
Saltanat – Canning Town
Saltanat Turkish Restaurant
What if you don't want to leave Canning Town at all?
Saltanat on Barking Road is worth knowing about. It's a popular Turkish restaurant rather than a conventional fine-dining establishment, but it has built a strong local reputation and offers a useful alternative when convenience is more important than luxury.
Turkish food also works extremely well for a sociable dinner. Grilled meats, mezze and dishes for the table lend themselves to sharing, and the atmosphere is more relaxed than you might find in one of Canary Wharf's high-end restaurants.
If you have arranged an incall booking locally and want to have dinner beforehand, this may actually make more practical sense than travelling elsewhere purely in search of a more prestigious restaurant.
Our verdict: Not fine dining in the strict sense, but one of the more useful local choices if you want to stay in Canning Town.
Best for: A relaxed meal, generous Turkish food and keeping the evening local.
Should You Dine in Canning Town or Canary Wharf?
It really depends on the type of evening you have planned.
If you're meeting an escort primarily for a private appointment and simply want a good restaurant beforehand, staying around Canning Town or Royal Victoria Dock keeps everything straightforward. There's little point spending half your evening travelling simply to eat somewhere with a more fashionable postcode.
For a longer engagement, however, Canary Wharf becomes much more interesting. It has the restaurants, cocktail bars, waterside surroundings and hotels required to turn dinner into a complete evening.
There is also something to be said for the contrast. You can enjoy dinner and drinks among the towers and waterfront developments of Canary Wharf before making the short journey back towards Canning Town later in the evening.
Dining with a Babylon Girls Escort
If you would like your escort to accompany you to dinner, remember to arrange an appointment of sufficient length. Restaurant dates inevitably take longer than expected, particularly if you intend to have drinks afterwards.
It is also worth considering the restaurant when choosing your companion. Some clients enjoy a glamorous venue where dressing for the occasion is part of the experience; others would much rather find somewhere relaxed where they can talk comfortably over dinner.
Babylon Girls' receptionists can help when you make your booking. If dinner is part of your plans, tell us. We can advise whether your chosen escort is happy to accompany you and ensure that enough time is allowed for the type of evening you have in mind.
Perhaps it would be a good idea to choose from our recommended girls; those who have proven themselves to be the best of the best. You can learn more about what it takes to be a recommended girl in our article: What Makes a London Escort Recommended/
Our Favourite for a Canning Town Escort Date
There isn't one restaurant that will suit everybody.
For staying close to Canning Town while still having somewhere stylish, MYMA at Royal Victoria would be our choice. For clients who care most about the food, we'd make the short journey to Kricket in Canary Wharf. And if you're looking for something more glamorous where dinner, drinks and the surroundings all contribute to the evening, COCO at West India Quay is difficult to overlook.
Canning Town's real advantage isn't that it has London's greatest collection of fine-dining restaurants within its boundaries. It is that you can be based there while having the Royal Docks and Canary Wharf remarkably close by.
That gives you the best of both worlds: plenty of choice when planning your evening, followed by easy access back to Canning Town when you would prefer a little more privacy.
