Yeah, but I’ve never heard of Canary Wharf Chocolate…
We’re trying to out soulless corporate hellacape Dubai now?
Canary Wharf is nice and walkable too. Dubai you practically need a car to cross the street.
💯 💯 💯
Canary Wharf > Dubai because you can leave it and go to decent parts of London. There are no decent parts of Dubai, the most soulless place I can think of.
Soulless pillars of steel and glass.
Tbh, that’s a fairly low comparison and I take offence on behalf of Canary Wharf!
Nah mate…
I am an Emirati living in London this whole comparison is stupid. You are comparing a 200 year old city to a mind you Qatari owned business district in London. Too ignorant to understand any of the history regarding any GCC city. Arab owned skyscrapers in London better than Arab owned skyscrapers in the middle east cope.
I have visited there only a few times, but along with Bishops Gate, it is the only place that makes me feel like I am living in one of the financial capitals of the world.
People on this sub seem to hate on Canary Wharf a lot. I prefer other parts of London for sure, but I’ve had a lot of fun in CW too. Fairgame, the outdoor cinema in the park, lots of nice restaurants and it’s very clean. I’ve had a decent time there more often than not 🤷♂️
One thing I find a bit weird is that it’s all private property.
Stoke over Dubai. I mean that sincerely. Stoke at least has a decent underground music scene and nice people.
I’m alright with a couple of bollards and a smashed bus stop, ta

Dubai is a hellhole an I got no idea why anyone would ever go there.
Have you even been to Dubai ?? Seriously there’s no comparison- Canary Wharf is fine but doesn’t even come close to Dubai
Barrow in Furness > Dubai. Why people love Dubai is beyond me
Canary wharf is an abomination, absolutely lifeless in contrast the vast majority of London.

Yep in an alternative reality Canary Wharf would be the Dubai marina
me mam’s village > Dubai ro Abu Dhabi or Riyadh or Jeddah. Doha is nice though.
Any place on Earth where my Wife is seen as “less” than me because of her organ configuration is a big no.
Fuck Dubai
Taking a wrong turning in the Nutty Putty cave and getting stuck upside down clamped on all sides by solid rock for days on end then dying > dubai
