GREAT BRITISH FOOD

Canteen, the award-winning all-day British diner, continues its considered expansion plan by
signing its fourth restaurant. Canteen Canary Wharf is set to open autumn 2009 in the Canada Square Pavilion, an under-construction addition to the retail amenities at Canary Wharf.

The 3,338 square feet restaurant will offer booth seating, the new ‘Canteen’ bistro table, a bar area
and covered out-door seating with wonderful views of Canada Park Square. The restaurant design
will reflect Canteen’s signature modern, democratic and welcoming style.

“We are genuinely excited to sign our fourth site, Canary Wharf, maintaining our considered
approach to Canteen's expansion”, Patrick Clayton-Malone, Canteen’s co-founder

Canteen serves high quality British cuisine at great value prices and gives customers ultimate
flexibility with an all day menu offering breakfast, lunch, dinner and afternoon tea. Its delicious bar
snack menu includes fish finger sandwich, Scotch egg, Neal’s Yard ploughman’s and roast meat
sandwich. The food menus are complimented by a seasonal cocktail list that celebrates British
ingredients and flavours and an exclusive British beer list featuring 20 of the UK’s finest bottled
beers, stouts, ales, ciders and perrys, selected beers on tap along with a selection of handpumped
seasonal ales and ciders sourced from microbreweries

Canteen’s mission is to raise the standard of British food on the high street, it currently serves
between 5,000 – 7,000 covers a week, it is a high volume, high quality restaurant that never
compromises on the quality of their ingredients. Canteen works directly with some of the UK’s best
food producers, all its meat is ethically sourced; its fish is supplied from day boats on the South
Coast and everything is made fresh in the Canteen kitchens including all jams, chutneys, cakes
and ice-creams.

Camille Waxer, Vice President of Retail at Canary Wharf Group plc, welcomed the signing, saying:

“It is important for the number of top-quality dining options at Canary Wharf to keep pace with the
anticipated growth in workers and visitors here over the coming years.

“Canteen will be a fantastic complement to the 200 plus retail outlets at Canary Wharf and will take
pride of place in the beautiful new Canada Square Park Pavilion, alongside One Canada Square,
one of Britain’s and the world’s iconic buildings.”
