"Whatever you think of Wetherspoons, we can all agree that if you're after a cheap pint or a budget full English breakfast, it's one of the most dependable places you can go. By this point 'Spoons is deeply engrained into British pub culture, and in London you're rarely more than walking distance from one of its 30 or so free houses."
"The building was home to the London Dungeon for nearly 40 years, guiding people through the Big Smoke's gruesome and grisly history, before the attraction moved to County Hall on the South Bank in 2013 as part of the big London Bridge redevelopment. The new pub will be called the Sun Wharf in reference to one of the wharfs that sat east of London Bridge, where goods from Australia came in."
JD Wetherspoons continues to expand in London, adding two new branches that will open on September 30. The Sun Wharf will occupy the large brick arches at 50 Tooley Street, a site that housed the London Dungeon for nearly 40 years, and takes its name from a wharf east of London Bridge where goods from Australia arrived. The new venue will serve food and drink from 6.30am to 12.30am daily. The Sir Alexander Fleming will open on Merchant Square at Paddington Basin, a five-minute walk from Paddington Station and close to Queen Mary's Hospital.
