After your pint, step outside. You’re five minutes from Tower Bridge and the sparkling marina of St. Katharine Docks. The contrast is jarring: from the dark, warm vault to the bright, open water. It’s a perfect before-and-after combo.
Grab a drink on the outdoor terrace in summer. The docks are full of million-pound yachts, but you’ll be sipping your £2.99 craft ale like you own the place. No one cares.
Fun Fact: The Ghost of a Dock Worker
Rumour has it the pub is haunted by a 19th-century dock worker named Old Tom. He’s said to move glasses and flicker the lights. Some regulars swear they’ve felt a cold draft on the back of their neck—even in summer. Whether you believe it or not, it adds a layer of spooky charm.
