The Bunch of Grapes

This pub has been described as a "proper pub" by those in the know, and you will be pleasantly surprised to open the door and find a traditional, cozy pub with a great selection of beer and ale (including Young's). It has a very small lip of a threshold, but can still easily be accessed by chairs, even power chairs. The bar staff is friendly, and will come and open the second door so that chairs can get in more easily.

Inside, the pub is rather dimly lit, but not in a way that's trying to hide dirt, bad carpet, etc. Instead, the pub is a little dark in an "old world" sense, and the dark wood floor and dark tables add to the atmosphere.  Sadly, the lovely beer garden is not accessible which is a shame since it is open year round and has lots of nice touches (e.g. cushions and blankets on benches, etc.).

This is our number one meeting place near Borough Market since it is conveniently located near the London Bridge tube station and across the street from the Market.
