Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Bridge Bar
Yes, its an airport terminal 'Bar & Eating House' so your expectations should not be too high. But unlike many of them, at least it has got some windows and you can sit and watch things happening outside if you are so inclined. There are also an improbable six handpumps scattered along the counter, but just Greene King IPA and a re-badged Bridge Ale (3.7%, and £2.15 for a half).

As you exit the security area there is an escalator straight ahead; at the top of the escalator bear round to the left, and the Bridge bar is at the end of the concourse on the right. This bar is generally less crowded, and is certainly less cramped, than the Flying Horse at the opposite end of the upstairs concourse. This one does get some natural light, and is actually quite comfortable, but of course doesn’t have the ale selection of the ‘spoons’. But it does advertise a cask ale – London Pride when I poked my nose in on Sunday – and does provide an alternative to the Flying Horse if it’s too busy.

The Bridge is a very ordinary airport bar which tries but is constrained by its environment. At least there's a view, provided you don't mind looking at a working airport. London Pride and Hoegaarden were on offer alongside the usual megakeg offerings; the Fullers was not particularly well kept and was below average, while prices were high. OK if you really want that last pint before flying, but the Flying Horse is a better bet if you're not in a hurry.
