Narrowboat, London

Operator: Young's

Improve This Listing

This is a long pub on two levels that runs along the canal from the bridge in St Peters Street. From the outside the pub maintains some of the looks of its Victorian origins, while inside the decor is distinctly light and modern. The main drinking area, accessible from the street, is broadly split into two equal parts, with the bar running down the side of the pub in the front half. Table seating is available to the front, while more comfortable sofas are available at the back. Two balconies on the canal-side provide excellent vantage points.

Downstairs there is a bar with two hand pumps, more table seating mostly set out for dining, and access to the canal towpath. Acquired from an independent operator by Young's in 2012. The pub may stay open later on weekdays if busy but equally might close earlier if not.

Historic Interest

Local Listing:- c1860 Small public house, two storey with basement at canal level. Stucco facades to streets round-headed windows and lunettes on canal side. Simple but elegant end to Wharf Road with rounded pediment.
