About Venue
Darcie & May Green situated directly outside Paddington Station on the Grand Union Canal are floating pieces of art, designed exclusively by the ‘godfather’ of British pop art, Sir Peter Blake.
May Green opens from the early hours of the morning (perfectly executed flat whites and banana bread) to the late hours of the evening (buzzing bar with nine local craft beers on tap and live music).
Darcie Green provides the perfect setting for canal side dining, serving Aussie brunch, healthy lunch and relaxing dinners. With an Antipodean-inspired menu, dishes are bold, fresh and comforting.
May Green, our barge bar has a capacity for 30 standing inside and an additional 50 on the rooftop deck. Perfect for summer parties and smaller Christmas drinks and canapes.

A very pleasant lunch experience that will tempt me back again. Darcie & May Green has an interesting menu that was speedily and well executed for my first eating visit there. I had the sweetcorn fritters with poached eggs but there were lots of attractive things on the menu. Been before for drinks in the open on the roof bar, which is very nice too when the weather is good in London. Service was good too.

Went for a couple of drinks. Margaritas are tasty and on a special deal (10 GBP) Monday to Friday 😌. For me the 3 stars go to having to order everything over the QR code regardless of personnel being on the spot and available - and then charging for service and offering tipping options… a real shame to lose the human touch that makes all the difference! The spot is very lovely though and great for a pit stop. Haven’t tasted food.

Great coffee (flat whites are perfect). The atmosphere is hit or miss- we went a few times during our stay in Paddington and it's not necessarily the restaurant's fault- some days the canal was just gross and had litter in it that you could see from the rooftop dining area. It's cool to be eating on a barge though, right?! There are plenty of clearly marked vegetarian options. I only had coffee and breakfast items during our visits in late July. Never had a wait. The staff was friendly.

Darcie & May is a lovely, unique dining experience in the Little Venice area of London. My party ordered a variety of dishes - some burgers, asian chicken salad, chicken parm and a tandori salmon, plus some bevies. Everything was fine, service was good. You knew you were on a boat on the canal but after awhile, the novelty wore off and we had an enjoyably meal. The restaurant wasn't that busy but I imagine if were, the seating may be a little tight. Otherwise, if you in Little Venice, you should enjoy a meal here.
