The team behind the successful pubs the Somerstown Coffee House near Euston, and the Victoria in Mile End, are now set to move further east in London and bring a traditional boozer to the high rises of the Docklands.
Anthony Pender and the team that also created fish-focused restaurant Faber in Hammersmith, will be blending elements of all the previous businesses to open up the Tallyman on the site of a former post office in Canary Wharf.
MA editor Ed Bedington took the DLR over to the historic docks to meet up with Pender and hear more about his vision for a community pub in the heart of one of London’s biggest financial districts.
