What you'd want to know
Padium Canary Wharf occupies Bank Street Park — seven indoor courts under a tall steel-truss roof and two outdoor courts in an adjacent yard. AFP-rated panoramic walls in tempered glass; mondo turf playing surface with 10.2 metre ceiling clearance.
The Ace Bar runs the front of the building with timber tables, plywood bar stools and a long counter serving beer, wine and a smoothie bar; the mezzanine lounge above has sofas and a clear view down to the courts. A pro shop stocks the latest rackets and apparel.
Polished concrete floor; warm pendant lighting in the lounge. Changing rooms with towel service off to the side.
Big-screen TVs above the bar wall showing world padel tour. The whole site reads as a social club.
Overheard from locals
- the 90-minute intro to padel session at £40 is the cheapest way to play here and learn the rules. don't book a regular court on round one.
- seven indoor plus two outdoor courts. all-weather; the outdoor courts only get used in good weather, the regulars stay inside.
- the ace bar and mezzanine lounge sit above the courts. people watch matches from the lounge between their own bookings.
- the pro shop hires rackets and stocks the latest gear — don't buy one on round one. rent and try a few.
- the pricing reflects the build. peak court fees are at the top end — if you want value, midweek lunchtime or off-peak is the slot.
