Have done it a few times in the last few months, even during rush hour on Friday last with really large suitcase reall simple the worst bit is the steps at honor oak but can be avoided by getting train to forest hill instead where there is a lift. Takes about 25 minutes all in all and at ?1.80 can't complain. Honor Oak -Canada WAter -Canada WAter jubilee line Canning Town -Canning town DLR City airport a lot less daffy then it sounds
Just in case anyone else does the trip. We did a cab on the way there as a sunday and traffic was light plus we worried the public transport may have been slow. Most of the local firms quoted around ?25 and it took ?30 mins. On the way back the plane landed at 430pm so we didnt want to do a cab in rush hour. We did the recommended overland and tube route and it was great although the overground leg from canada water was crowded. City airport is brilliant aswell its so efficient and quick to get through check in and customs, its much less hassle than gatwick or heathrow.

Depends where you are in ED. If you are nearer to the library or Forest Hill Road, then perhaps HOP is the best way to go. I've taken the bus from the end of Dunstan's Road/LL to Forest Hill, then Overground to C Water, then Jubilee then DLR. It sounds a faff, but it's not. Pack light!

    • Well I did say I stand to be corrected! Fair enough, their website only seemed to list three branches. Perhaps it's a franchise model?  It's known as 'agglomeration' in economics Rookie error.
    • I didn't know there was a word for that — thanks!
    • This is just normal business behaviour. That's why there are so many coffee shops in ED and shops selling gifts and interiors stuff, clothes, restaurants.  If there's more than one business of a similar type then it can benefit all of them up to a saturation point and keep up quality. It's all sounding like many think Chango has made a malicious move when it actually sounds like it's owned by one guy who has a good business that has done well.   Anyway this is all great advertising for both empanada places. Very close by is the organic grocer who sells really good value and very tasty samosas and other Indian snacks which are also worth trying.
