A place to browse, buy ingredients or build lunch one decision at a time. Entry is free; the food is a separate budget.
Food & drink London
A narrow riverside pub makes Limehouse a rewarding pause on a walk along the Thames.
The Grapes looks onto the Thames from Limehouse, giving a traditional pub visit a riverside setting. The house traces its history to the sixteenth century, while its present-day offer includes a bar menu, meals and a pub quiz.
Use it as a pause during a walk through this stretch of east London. Come for the waterside setting as much as the drink, and allow time to sit rather than treating it as a quick landmark stop.
