Many years ago, I would walk to St. Katherine's Docks during my lunch break and have a wander around. That was before the world food market and the development of the old warehouses into restaurants and cafes. Now, St. Katherine's Docks is one of the places to be with a wide range of restaurants and cafes, and it's a wonderful place to visit on a sunny day.
As I am currently working just up the road, I've been to St. Katherine's Docks World Food Market for lunch with colleagues and alone. There's quite a few great street food stands here selling everything from fine steak to pasta, South American fried-chicken to pastries, Indian/Pakistani street food to Greek, salad to macaroni and cheese, burgers to game, African street food to fish and chips, dumplings to Thai/Chinese stir fries, and everything in between.
While having a wander around the marina looking at the yachts and the queen's golden barge, the world food market is the place to visit, and there are plenty of places to sit and eat the takeaway street food. (If visiting on another day, it's also worth a drink at one of the outside restaurant tables on the marina. )
The World Food Market is open from 11:00 to 15:00 on Fridays and it is now open on Saturdays on the Riverside from 11:00 to 15:00.
