Brew Wharf

Beer fans shouldn’t think of Vinopolis as a no-go area, since this shrine to wine also has an on-site microbrewery housed in the pleasing surroundings of Brew Wharf. The tasty range includes draughts such as Wharf Best, although you can also sup brews from the Greenwich Meantime Brewery alongside a global selection of bottled beers including Oz-brewed Coopers, Steenbrugge from Belgium & Brazilian Brahma. If you don’t fancy a beer, there are spirits & a short but thoughtful wine list, plus an equally succinct menu offering bar snacks, platters & more hearty gastropub-style dishes such as liver & bacon with sage & onion mash or pan-fried sea bream with new potatoes & runner beans. In summer the large courtyard at the front is a great place for an after-work drink or an amiable pint after you’ve browsed round Borough Market.
