The Bridge Tavern
A light, woody, office of a pub popped quite conveniently on the edge of tower-bridge - south side. The bar offers a good selection of drinks in a hazy, bright, lazy-afternoon style atmosphere. The place buzzes with a number of ex city peoples in comfortable dress, the odd tourists and one or two […]

The Shipwright’s Arms
A ub with the mission to safe-guard the keep of its flurry of locals and shun away the tourists, thrill seekers and bar reviewers of this world. The toilets display an angry warning about misuse by non-drinkers and the main room is literally a high-ceiled hall with a rounded- skeletal bar filling its […]

Barrowboy and Banker
A deep, thick set pub on two levels, popular, charismatic and fun. The place is full of young people, over-sized lighting and the layout of the place has an element of surrounding the people at the bar with the whole atmosphere of the place. Perhaps its the tall bar compared to the apparent […]

Anchor Tap
An independent pub, quite fitting for this backstreet backdrop. £2.50 a pint even the barman is on the booze. out the back is an beer garden fitted snugly inside the concrete jungle around the pub. The place has several odd rooms dotted about leading one around in a complex labyrinth of lounges, seated areas […]

The Liberty Bounds (wetherspoons)
A Multi-entrance pub (yet all the doors are pretty much on the same side) with extravegant finishings on the skin of the pub but it has been dressed up, like most wetherspoons it is a twisty turny honeycomb of a layout with the bar set deep to the back of the pub […]

Shakespeare Globe Theatre (Restaurant & Bar)
Down the road from the Tate modern art gallery sits a humble theatre of reconstructed shakespearean origin and beside it a bar and restaurant. The top floor was the accolade of my experience whereby I was entertained to the most glorious views of the Thames, the gherkin and the streets […]
