Lonely Planet review for Anchor Bankside
This pub dating back to the early 17th century (but subsequently rebuilt after the Great Fire and again in the 19th century) has superb views across the Thames from its terrace and is the most central – and most popular – riverside boozer in London; expect a scrum at almost all times. Dictionary writer Samuel Johnson, whose brewer friend owned the joint, drank here as did diarist Samuel Pepys.
