Bar with Thames view
The All Bar One on Shad Thames is one of the better specimens of the chain bar phenomenon. It's at Shad Thames, along the Riverwalk, with fantastic views of (what else) the river and Tower Bridge. It's an easy place to sit either outside, nursing a chilled glass of Semillon Chardonnay, watching the people go by, or inside, in one of the plush leather sofas, nibbling on one of the surprisingly good items from the tapas menu. If you get hungry for proper food, there are lots of very good restaurants on either side.
