I get they are providing a service and my low rating is purely on the enjoyment that I found during a visit.
Opposite the Tower - its peak tourist location. Every table taken. Queues at the bar, managed well by overworked staff.
The background noise was out of this world. I found a perch, nicked a stool and got a headache.
All this whilst a jobbing high viz jacketed security guard patrolled, with the most bored looking expression on his face.
Here for the Good Beer Guide and won't be returning.

Very close to the Tower of London and the signs everywhere to mind your bags together with a high viz security guard patrolling the interior doesn't give a welcoming first impression.However I visited on a cold Wednesday at 5pm and the pub was not jammed.The interior with it's anchor themed carpet is one of the better 'spoons attempts,with raised seating areas below the vast glass windows,high tables opposite the bar area while up some stairs was a calm lounge broken up by wood clad columns and a balcony view over the lower areas.
The bar has two ranks of 6 handpumps with regular GK IPA and Abbott,Doom Bar,London Pride and Adnams Broadside but with guests Lymestone Ein Stein,Maxim Samson,Cotleigh Red Nosed Rheindeer, a real cider,Hook Norton Twelve Days Porter,an International festival ale and Salopian Golden Thread (£3.29,NBSS 2.5).Thankfully no "available soon" malarkey and I can see why the local CAMRA branch have awarded this pub 2020 GBG status.
Better then I feared,it's still a 'spoons but with 6 guest ales you may find a decent pint.

Real Ale Ray left this review about The Liberty Bounds (JD Wetherspoon)
A one off visit sufficed as the pub was very busy with overseas tourists, nothing wrong with that, more the merrier in my opinion. It was just that the majority of them block the main entrance, as you're trying to get in or out and also stand in front of the bar. They also seem to treat the pub as a themed tourist attraction, to take in a pint of English beer. Two banks of six pumps, so we went for a quick half of Adnam's Ghost Ship and Naylor's Velvet and then scurried around the corner to the Draft House.
