On the woman’s day for my lunch break I went in The Dickens Inn pub with my colleague.I was very supposed how beautiful is it and how big is it!!🤩 it so peaceful place where you can eat upstairs, outside with lively sun 🌞 us I did or inside with two floors.Is not at all chaotic but so relaxing and peaceful place.The service was so nice, very welcoming staff and with a big smile, as I like!I ordered 2 full all day breakfast and it was as well so great and delicious!I very recommend this place to the people they work or live around there. Is a fantastic place!

This pub is very pretty and the location is great! The staff were friendly and polite. The food however was very underwhelming. I ordered a chicken burger which was not nice at all. The chicken burger was processed and about half a cm thick. I was expecting a freshly cooked breast. It said it came with a salad which it didn't. The rest of my family had a beef burger and fish and chips which again was just 'ok'. Go to this pub for the atmosphere and drinks but I personally do not recommend ordering food.

I went to the pub. It was nice and friendly. Dog friendly too! The drinks were nice. They have food as well, which came out quickly and was hot. It's just off the docks, and it looks lovely on the outside and nice on the inside. They have a foosball table in the corner and a tv. You don't need to dress up. You can go in trackies and trainers.

Went for a business networking event.A lovely and quaint building in a fantastic setting. Very beautiful area... St. Katherine Docks, next to Tower of London.The venue was very clean, beautiful and the catering and staff were exceptional.Exceeded my expectations and thoroughly enjoyed my visit. The food was great, although I have no idea as to the cost as it was a catered event.All around highly recommended for business or pleasure visits.

Great place to go for food or drinks if you are on this side of London. Lovely views of St.Katherine's Dock. Tiny bit pricey for what it is - but I'd say it's probably fair based on the location. Well worth a visit and really friendly staff. Pet friendly on the first and second floor, but not in the restaurant on the third (fair enough).Ground floor - boozer, first floor - Pizzeria, third floor - restaurant.

We got married at the Dickens Inn in October 2021 and cannot recommend it highly enough as a wedding venue. From start to finish, the team were extremely friendly and helpful, making sure the day went off without a hitch. We wanted a relaxed pub wedding and got just that! Very good value considering the location by Tower Bridge too.

Came here for a work social. It's a bit pricey but very well maintained venue at a superb location.

So it’s cute but the fish and chips were just awful! Super fishy! I was starving so I tried not breathing in as I ate but it didn’t help. Even the chips tasted fishy. Maybe their burgers are good or maybe it was a bad batch of fish. I couldn’t eat them. Honestly this is just another cute pub in England. I would not go out if your way to go here to eat! There are many great pubs to choose from that have history, ambience and great fish and chips

This is another unique building worth a visit when in this part of London. Had a few pints here - typical pricing for beer. We did not have food but stopped in mostly to see the building and get that old historic feel. It had low ceiling and large wooden joist etc.

·

Great place, great area! Never been here before so was a bit worried how it's gonna be with booking the table etc (as we were a bigger group of people). Very smooth process, polite staff and only good vibes as soon as we entered. The place is huge, 3-floor pub with the seating inside and outside + the garden downstairs. They show all the main games - like Euro 2020 now. We had a really good time and will certainly come back again, thanks!
