Tower Bridge location. Only 4 casks of english ale, but very good ones. Food and interior are awesome. Feels more like a restaurant with an attention on good beer. Thumbs up for the Ghostbusters wallpaper in the staircase leading to the bathrooms.

Visited the Tower Bridge Branch on a Saturday. Open airy bar space and diner style restaurant on the other side. When I came in their were only a couple of punters but then about 25 German tourists came in and the place was suddenly buzzing. Range of beers is very good. Stuff on tap was mainly Belgian lagers, Palm etc. They had about 3 or 4 cask pumps and the one I tried was fresh as a daisy. Bottle range is very good with stuff from around the world. All in all a very nice place to stop by and would go back. It’s not quite as up there as Euston Tap, Cask, Craft Beer Co etc, but not far behind. Also they do third of pints which is great for tasting. More bars should do this!

The Draft House is a large modern-looking bar located just past Tower Bridge. Spacious and full of long tables, much bigger than its sister pub in Clapham. Big selection of keg, cask and bottle on offer. Includes the likes of Harviestoun, Dark Star, Sierra Nevada etc. Maybe a bit too many light fizzy options, but interesting brews also. Had Big Foot on keg, which was brilliant and fresh. Kernel bottles in the fridge always make me happy. Staff were friendly and I like how they serve thirds. Hit this on the way to/from Dean Swift.

Quite a large pub, visited late Saturday evening almost empty. Staff quite nice, good selection of casks and bottles. Place feels more like a restaurant than a pub. Had just a coule of glasses, might visit again next time in London.

The Draft House at Tower Bridge is one of three in London, the others being in Clapham and Battersea. It’s light and airy with windows on three sides and large wooden bench tables – ideal as a meeting place for the start of the third and final day of the 2011 RBESG. We arrived soon after it opened on the Sunday after a very pleasant walk along the South Bank from London Bridge. The walls are painted in muted colours and decorated with a range of interesting music posters. One I noticed was for a concert John Cale and his band had given at Vooruit in Gent, which we’d visited only a few weeks before. There are eighteen or more taps (some of which are interesting, others less so) and they usually have four cask ales as well as a good range of bottles. Oh, and they serve beer in third pints as well as full pints and halves – an excellent innovation! There’s a raised area with bright green banquettes in a separate room for dining and a tasting room downstairs. The staff were very friendly – a barmaid who wasn’t very knowledgeable about the beers but she did offer us free drinks when she poured Pfungstadter by mistake and a welcoming barman who made a few cheeky comments but was well-meaning enough to get away with it.

A nice pub. Large space. Big windows. Decent range of beers on cask, keg and bottle. No complaints with the staff. Can’t recall if they serve food. Certainly worth checking out if you’re in the area.

A large bright space just south of Tower Bridge and around the corner from Dean Swift. A few casks that I enjoyed (although I think they serve them a bit too warm). Friendly service again. The interior reminds me more of a North A,erican pub than a UK one, but that’s not necessarily bad. Great bottle list as well, although, again, I stuck to cask. Worth checking out.

Really blose to Tower Bridge. Fine bottle selection. Friendly service. Bar played relaxin music like Beatles and such. Food looked good. Ok

Very pleasant staff. - they made a slight boob, and were handing out free beer. 2 dull house lagers, but plenty of interesting stuff to make up for it, some breweries I’d never even heard of. Need to return for the rhubarb beer! However, on a more sensible note, this is a simple easy-on-the-eye interior, verging on sterile were it not for the brilliant selection of music-related artwork around the walls.

Fine pub, very conveniently located, also for the Kernel brewery or Borough Market. Five casks, lots of British and domestic kegs. Fine service, did not try the food.
