The Grapes, Historic pub in Limehouse, England
The Grapes stands at 76 Narrow Street, featuring a wooden veranda that extends over the Thames River, providing direct views of the water.
The building dates from the 1720s, constructed on the site of an earlier 1583 tavern that served dock workers from the Limehouse Basin.
Charles Dickens incorporated The Grapes into his novel 'Our Mutual Friend', making the establishment a reference point in British literature.
The pub opens daily from noon, serves traditional food including fish and chips, and holds weekly quiz nights on Monday evenings.
Sir Walter Raleigh launched his third expedition to the New World from the water directly below where The Grapes now stands.
