The Gun, Docklands is a historic riverside pub in a Grade II listed building at Coldharbour. Its position on the Thames gives the dining rooms, terrace and garden striking views across the water towards the O2, while Canary Wharf is a short distance away.
The kitchen focuses on refined pub classics made with fresh seasonal ingredients. British meat, fish, shellfish, pies and vegetable dishes create a menu that works for a concise lunch as well as a more leisurely dinner beside the river.
Sunday roasts continue one of the pub’s strongest traditions, accompanied by roast potatoes, seasonal vegetables, Yorkshire pudding and gravy. A weekday set lunch and a separate selection of house made pizzas provide additional ways to dine across the week.
Cask ales and modern craft beer are joined by wine, spirits and cocktails at the bar. Private dining rooms, the riverside terrace and regular daily service allow The Gun to host everything from a casual pint or family meal to business events, weddings and larger celebrations.
Address: 27 Coldharbour, Docklands, London E14 9NS, United Kingdom
