The rooms worth crossing London for: the interiors CAMRA lists, the last galleried coaching inn, the pubs where something documented happened, and the ones that do one thing better than anyone. Filter by kind, or by what's open now.
An early-nineteenth-century house on Ballast Quay with a bowed window stacked two floors high, pointed down the river.
Historic interiorOn the river
Three storeys of multicoloured stock brick under a parapet, with three windows set very wide apart. What you notice is the rounded oriel bay carrying the centre windows of the first and second floors, each with its own fluted pilasters and entablature: a bow of glass two storeys high, aimed straight down the Thames. The ground floor keeps an early-nineteenth-century shop front with glazing bars and a four-panel door, and there is a fire assurance sign on the first floor - the mark a private fire company put on buildings it would turn out for.
The pub is number 6 and the house next door is number 7; the whole of Ballast Quay went on the register together, which is why the row still reads as one piece of waterfront rather than a pub with neighbours.
Young's have it. There is a terrace on the river, the kitchen leans hard on seafood, and the private room upstairs is the Crow's Nest.
