| After a short but cold walk from the DLR station we were pleasantly suprised by the welcoming lights as we rounded the corner. Inside we had been warned to expect a slightly tacky interior, however it was far better than we expected and definately superior to many an 'Olde English cum fake Irish pub'. Service was fast and atmosphere relaxed and evn though it was a cold Tuesday Evening in March, the pub was gently busy. Fish and Chips were better than average and looking around, the roast looked excellement. Music was 80's cheese and needs improvement, and gas effect effect log fires would have been far better if real. Definatley worth a second visit. JackR - 2 Mar 2010 23:46 |
| Just spent New Year's Eve here are what a dismal experience. I don't know what the problem is with this place, just very badlly run. Avoid it like the plague! Any brewery worth its salt would make this the jewel in its crown. Fantastic location, historic building, garden. Instead it is run like a student union bar. To be fair the New Year 'nite' was cheap, and we soon found out why. The 'DJ' insisted on playing crap music, about as suitable for the occasion as a dose of the clap. He insisted on playing 'his choice' and presumably, for the bunch of dodgy cronies he brought along with him. The 'food' was inedible. Half the punters left before the midnight hour. These were affluent customers who would have spent A LOT OF CASH. Well done brwery... everyone was was a loser!!! Nailed - 5 Jan 2010 16:16 |
| This is worth coming to even just for the river view, but it is also a nice, spacious pub and the food is good. The garden, last time I was in it during the summer, was surprisingly shabby though. The last couple of times I've been here the toilets have not been great. vodkadrinker - 6 Dec 2009 00:48 |
| Visited again yesterday. Excellent service and well kept cask ales (although there only seemed to be two on now, were four on my last post in June last year). The location with river views is possibly the best in London. The food was good and reasonably priced, although the portions seemed a lot smaller than I remembered. Worth a special visit. Be even easier to get to when Wapping Station reopens! alexw - 18 Sep 2009 08:20 |
| Wonderful pub, the Doom Bar was on top form! Just a little more effort on sweeping up the outside area would be good. BlindTiger - 14 Sep 2009 15:30 |
