Flanked by the Thames, the dome of The O2 and Canary Wharf, the Martin Brothers have turned The Gun in Docklands into one of the city's finest gastropubs. The huge outdoor terrace offers a great view of the river, making it easy to imagine Lord Nelson having a furtive tryst with Lady Emma Hamilton in years gone by. Every summer, the terrace is converted into A Grelha - a free-standing al fresco restaurant serving Portuguese specialties. The Mediterraneans' passion for grill cooking is demonstrated here right before your eyes. Fish, poultry and steak are all selected by the diner, weighed (to determine the price), then flash-fried or more likely grilled while you wait. There's an extraordinary array of tapas and dipping sauces, freshly baked bread and a specially imported selection of robust Portuguese wine. Yum.
