Though out of the way, it has a 2 fires in autumn/winter. Overlooking the O2, the food here is v. good (if a tad pricey). It's less of a pub and more of an upmarket gastro. Come here for a treat.

On the river, overlooking Canary Wharf, this small working farm is an oasis of calm. The on-site Piccalilli Caff is one of the best kept secrets in SE London! Scrummy food & amazing coffee.

Another famous, historic pub on the river. Really worth a visit. Food is ok, but find a spot by the fire or overlooking the water and have a few tankards of ale! Transports you back in time.
