The Gunmakers is a fully restored Victorian pub located in Clerkenwell. Off the beaten track but still very much part of the social scene, it is regarded by locals as a return to what Britain does best – a good, honest pint, a friendly face and quality food. The interior mixes original and new features combining the open social bar space with the intimate secret corners, nooks and crannies of the 1840s building.
The Gunmakers is a little hidden gem. A boozer atmosphere with a really cool open air terrace at the back. Very cute and cozy.
The good news is it's still very good for food - pub grub certainly, but with genuine flair, well presented and reasonably priced. They do decent grog too (Bombardier and IPA were both well kept) and it still feels like a local with a friendly greeting.
