Super tiny and cosy pub right next to the Thames. Lovely little deck out the back which has great views of the river and city skyline. It gets busy so arrive early if you want a seat.

Jonathan Weir

Don't forget to take a look at the balcony - the in-out of the tide is quite spectacular. It comes right up against the buildings, you could almost be on a boat! The pub food is also excellent.

Ian Agar

This place is a living piece of history and well worth a visit just to feel like a Victorian merchant while you quaff your ale . Make it out onto the decking area for an amazing vista to drink to.

Francesca Mackenzie

Cosy friendly small pub , been here since 1584! Great ales with guest ales . Great bar food - the pie of the day was fab and with huge chips , for around £8.50.

Federico Guardia

Check our Gandalf's staff behind the bar and go outside for a great view of the Thames.

Clea Romeo

Lovely outside deck in summer with views of the Thames. Gandalf's staff is behind the bar !

Londonist

The veranda is definitely worth a visit if you can get out there. Wonderful views across the Thames; decent beer too.

Mark Turner

Often not much room to sit, always very busy Monday night (quiz night), the food is great, makes things difficult to eat. Beer is fine. Is not kid friendly , local bi-laws means strictly no under 18s.

Great traditional pub , ideal spot for summer. Really good Sunday roast .

The Sunday roast (of any persuasion) is great, but get here early as it fills up fast!

HISTORY UK

This pub was built in 1720 on the site of an older tavern. As a boy Charles Dickens , who used to visit his godfather who lived nearby, was made to stand on a table and sing to the patrons.

Quaint little pub - Charles Dickens used to frequent. Great roasts at Sunday lunchtime. On other nights, a cracking seafood restaurant

Delicious sunday roast that is served up faster than you can say "sunday roast "

Peter Robinson

Service is great since the change of ownership and the Sunday roast is great!

Ian Agar

I ordered a coffee (don't hate me) which was my first mistake. It was very weak. I politely asked at the bar to have it done again, feeling super-awkward, and the barmaid was incredibly rude.
