The Gun

The Gun is one of the most celebrated riverside pubs in East London -- a 19th-century Docklands pub on Coldharbour, named after the cannon that was fired to mark the opening of the West India Docks, now run by Fuller's and listed by Hot Dinners among the very best places to eat and drink in Canary Wharf and the Docklands. The pub sits directly on the Thames waterfront with a riverside terrace that is one of the finest outdoor dining spots in E14, looking out across the river towards Greenwich.

The menu is a seasonal British kitchen that changes to reflect what is best from British producers: pub classics done well alongside more ambitious seasonal dishes, all underpinned by Fuller's quality ales and a thoughtful wine list. The riverside terrace is the undisputed highlight in fine weather. A destination pub that draws visitors from across London as well as the Canary Wharf community. Open daily from noon.
