Although you'd be forgiven for thinking it dates back to the 1820s, the time of the historic warehouses around it, The Wharf is actually a beautiful modern purpose-built pub which originally opened in 1998 and traded until 2005 as 'Jackson's Wharf', before Brunning & Price spectacularly re-opened it in July 2012.
Although it is a large building, there are innumerable nooks and crannies so you can find cosy, intimate rooms and alcoves, or more buzzy, dynamic areas if you prefer.
Downstairs is more pubby in style, including all those elements that make the traditional British pub feel special – open fires, bookcases, good old furniture, lots of prints, rugs and plants, and oak floors, and a really buzzy, chatty and civilised atmosphere.
The Wharf has the feel of a classic country pub, with the bar right at the heart of the operation with up to 12 cask ales on tap, a decent wine list of some 50 bins and a back shelf crammed with over a hundred malt whiskies.
