The Gun Pub in Docklands voted best county dining pub in London
A historic pub in the Docklands has been voted the best county dining pub in the capital for the second year running.
The Gun, at Coldharbour, which was frequented by Lord Nelson until his death at the battle of Trafalgar in 1805, picked up the gong from The Good Pub Guide 2013.
The award is based on excellent reader reviews and an anonymous inspection by guide editors, Fiona Stapley and Alisdair Aird.
Ms Stapley said: “It was obvious from the excellent feedback that this pub was a cut above the rest.
“The Gun is a very deserving winner. They adhere to proper pub values within a contemporary setting and the menu is genuinely interesting and imaginative”.
