Settle in for a drink, or two...

Nestled snugly in the heart of St Katharine Docks, a hidden jewel amongst the hustle and bustle of the city, The Dickens Inn is a proud reminder of what a proper British pub ought to be. ​

Down on the ground floor, you’ll find, honest pints pulled with care, hearty fare served with a smile and no shortage of friendly faces to share a tale or two.​

With its stripped wooden floors, low-lit corners and tables for lingering, it’s a cost refuge when the wind howls outside and come summer, our grand terrace spills out into the sun, abuzz with laughter, clinking glasses and a devil-may-care spirit.

Please note, we only accept bookings in the The Tavern for groups of 15 or more.

Explore our Tavern Menus, made for sharing, grazing and good company. Gather your friends and family round for hearty British favourites, served with a generous helping of warmth and cheer.
