Modern low ceilinged Wetherspoon pub named after the Surrey Commercial Docks, which were located here from 1807 to 1970. Information panels on the walls chart the history of the area and some of its more famous residents. 8 handpumps (in two banks, each of 4) provide a range of real ales. The pub is well served by public transport including the London Overground railway station just across the road. Large pavement seating area at the front.
