Background: The Narrow was the first of Gordon Ramsay's pubs and opened in March. The pub is in the Limehouse area of east London, right beside the River Thames. The pub is one of 10 planned by Ramsay and was followed by the Devonshire in Chiswick. His third pub, the Warrington, in Maida Vale, is due to open in the new year.
