FYI: ExCel are operating a one way system within the venue, so the nearest station to get into the ExCel is Custom House and when leaving it will be Prince Regent.


If you decide to get the Jubilee line and the interchange at Canning Town is busy, it is a 20 minute walk.


There is more info here (if you have not already seen it)

Sadly not, the Games Travelcard which comes with your ticket will allow you to buy a Boarding Pass at the Oyster PAYG rate of ?3.20 single at the ticket office.

We have travelled today to Excel with a baby and had a great journey.


We Got the London overground from forest hill. We changed at Shadwell for DLR to custom house. It was quick and not busy. You can get bus to forest hill from ED but we actually drove and parked on wood vale and walked from there.

I made the mistake of going to North Greenwich where there was a 15 minute queue for the cable car, on the other side, there wasn't a massive queue.


Incidentally Royal Victoria station is much closer to the cable car station than Custom House.

Probably does not help as I live in Honor Oak Park, however my girlfriend and I went to Excel yesterday and we timed it out of a bit of fun.....from Honor Oak Park Station to front door of Excel took a fraction over 26 mins, how cool is that.


Also as we did not cross zones the fairs were really cheap.

    • As we know Love Dulwich is now a Turkish meze grill restaurant and today they have started their lunch time special. A choice of a cold or hot starter (4 of each to choose from), plus a main meal (4 the choose from including a veggie meal) £15. I had hummus with the softest, warm bread to dip in it (you can ask for more bread) and then chicken shesh, 3 types of salad (onion & sumac, red cabbage & traditional leaf), bulgar - huge portions.   The food was tasty and delicious. Chicken was perfectly cooked, juicy and full of flavour, salad was fresh and the bulgar was cooked perfectly.  If you didn’t want the lunch special they also had the main menu which was small but with some amazing meal, chicken, veggie & fish options.  We really enjoyed it and will be back to sample the evening menu as well.   
    • Nikolay's work was recommended by several forum users in here, and we decided to go with his services after getting his quote: it was well priced, with the cost of each component clearly broken down. We recently purchased a Victorian conversion in Catford which had alot of damaged floorboards (old, but also damaged from badly done DIY repairs) which needed replacing, and a 4 x 4m bedroom which needed all new floorboards installed as previous owners removed all original boards to install cheap chipboard floors covered with padding and carpets. Nikolay and his team removed the chipboards, and built the floor in 2–3 days from reclaimed boards, alongside doing alot of replacements and repairs to a lounge and dining room. When the quote was to go up due to more repairs being needed (we asked for it) Nikolay communicated the changes, and gave us an updated quote quickly so we could update our budget for it. They were very communicative and gave frequent text and photo progress updates when we could not be there which put us at ease. The whole job was efficiently completed in 6 working days including sanding and staining all the floors. The job was completed to a high standard, and the results were incredible. I still have 1 more bedroom which needs restoring, and I have every intention to go back to Nikolay again for his services.
