A stunning venue overlooking the Docklands, here is a gastropub that’s as one-of-a-kind as it is a familiar, family pub.

The Gun is a Grade II-listed building, with roots in 18th century armoury (Lord Nelson inspected guns there; hence the name) and boasts an unbeatable view of the river. Soak up all that history on the outdoor patio and enjoy relaxing al fresco dining in summer months.

Sundays Roasts at The Gun are a regal affair and harken back to the traditional family events of yore. Celebrating quintessential British ingredients, the dishes combine tradition with culinary invention for the perfect complement of flavours.

Mains range from roast Sirloin of beef with creamed horseradish to a whole corn fed chicken for two, all of which are served with trimmings and plenty of gravy.

Why not have a relaxing stroll along the river after dining, the perfect way to end a lovely Sunday afternoon? South Quay Rail is under five minutes away on foot.

    It was absolutely fantastic from start to finish. We visited lunchtime yesterday just for a quick drink. However, when we got there, we were tempted by the lunchtime offer of 2 or 3 courses for £20 or £25. I had the pea ravioli to start and fish and chips for mains. Everything was perfect, very tasty and fresh, and a good-sized portion despite being an offer. Service was faultless, just right not overdone or in your face. Everything at the right time. Lovely cosy pub and surroundings next to the river overlooking the 02 arena. Great outside area for the sunny days, too, with bar and music with the perfect Thames view. This is gem of a place and we'll worth a visit.

    Chef clearly cares about the food he/she serves. We had the set menu and I must say it didn't feel like a set menu. There was plenty of food beautifully served and very tasty. Great settings. Lovely attentive and engaging waiter. Will be back.

    Fantastic spot! The food was delicious—lamb, ravioli, and my all-time favorite beef tartare blew my mind. Absolutely top-notch. Now, I hate to nitpick, but that sticky toffee pudding came with what must’ve been the tiniest scoop of ice cream known to humankind. But don’t worry, a glass of port came to the rescue. Oh, and the crispy lager was on point, too!
