Slug & Lettuce, Tower Hill, E1

Bright modern thing in base of office block handy for North end of Tower Bridge. Sadly the two handpumps were defunct at time of visit; unclear if permanent or temporary.

Large rectangular bar / restaurant located below the level of the Tower Bridge northern approach road and not far from the north-west corner of the St Katherine's Docks. Usual anonymous semi-modern furniture and decor, with the tables at both ends and along the full-height front windows laid up for dining, but with a reasonable number of higher tables directly in front of the counter available for general use. Also has two rows of small metal tables outside along the frontage. Not exactly a great beer choice, but Doom Bar and Pride (£3.70) were available from the two handpumps in addition to the usual keg offerings.
