Attracting Wapping residents as well as tourists over the years, Il Bordello often sees queues out of the door during the week. Despite its position at the bottom of one of Wapping’s modernised brick wharfs, you could be taking a step back into the 1990s here – complete with tables covered in plastic cloths, and napkins carefully curled into wine glasses. The food, complemented by an all-Italian wine list, is similarly straightforward.

Drinks & Nightlife
Historic pub that claims to be haunted by celebrity ghosts. If you don't catch a glimpse of them, you can console yourself with a great view of the Thames.
If you've ever taken a boat up the Thames, you'll have probably noticed a scaffold and hangman's noose outside an appealingly aged tavern by the Wapping riverside. It’s a grim reminder of Execution Dock, a nearby gallows where many a pirate met his end (yes, really). And the tavern in question is the Prospect of Whitby, London’s oldest riverside pub and the best of three by the river in Wapping.

Long and narrow it may be, but the Grade II-listed Town of Ramsgate seems bright, friendly and open, not unlike the staff tending to the needs of the contented mix of locals, office workers and tourists who mingle easily within it. Hoegaarden, Leffe and Peroni are on draught for those who favour a continental brew; wine-lovers plump for Tin Roof shiraz or Marlborough sauvignon blanc.
Out back, the bijou, decked terrace delights the lucky punters who manage to grab a table in summer, watching the moorhens as the tide slaps against the stone steps leading down to the Thames from the adjacent alleyway.

Everything Else
As far as locations go, The Turk's Head has got it pretty good. Not only are they a five-minute walk to Wapping station, they're even closer to Waterside Gardens, which overlooks the Thames, and they're situated on the edge of Wapping Gardens.
