Just a quick pint, then I'm off left this review about The Sun Wharf (J D Wetherspoon)

Wetherspoon pub underneath the platforms on the northern side of London Bridge station (in a site once occupied by the London Dungeon). Unusually for such locations, you don't really notice the railway arches above except by the entrance, but they do force a subdivision of the space into relatively small seating / dining areas so it certainly doesn't feel cavernous. A duplicated selection from the two banks of six handpumps as usual, with the regular Doom Bar, Abbot and The Naked Ladies from Twickenham supplemented by Sambrook's Junction, Windsor Knot from Windsor & Eton (£4.05) and Titanic Plum Porter. Very handy for the station.

Built atop the site of a Bronze Age mound and situated, appropriately enough, opposite the HCA Urgent Care Centre, this opened on 30th September 2025 in part of the former London Dungeon, name taken from the former adjacent Sun Wharf, demolished in the mid- ‘80s.
With much exposed brick vaults and the rumble of trains providing some entertainment, the interior isn’t as big as some ‘spoons but is full of nooky rooms, much of the interior looking like that of a labyrinthine spaceship; the Nostromo of drinkeries? There’s much concrete, rough terrazzo floor (or wood laminate) then plenty of hanging exposed galvanised stuff; all this can be seen from the photos.
Aside from the usual fluids you’d use to weatherproof your garden fence, there was Guardsman, Kazbek, Plum and Naked Ladies, price forgotten as their NFC had gone down and as I was to find out, this had affected all branches, ‘spoonNet having become self-aware.
This is an interesting place, but it’s not that easy to find within the station development and is a fair distance from railway platforms; SE1 has plenty of decent local hostelries, so I don’t envisage a return visit.

Plenty of beer options. Starting with cask offering of GK IPA, Doom Bar, Abbot, Bermondsey Best and the Harvard APA both from Southwark Brewing, Canberra Autumn Ale from Windsor & Eton, Jaipur and Born to Brew from J W Lees. Keg offering of original SB, Stella, Angelo Poretti, Stowford Press, Leffe Blonde, Budweiser, Corona, Coors, Bud Light, K1664, Carlsberg, Guinness, BD Punk IPA, Mad Squirrel Big Sea IPA, London Pilsner from the Portobello Brewery, the Solar session pale ale from Redemption.

Multi room venue in railway arches, so near continuous sound of overhead trains, with bar counter against the rear wall in a tiled floor space with a few entrances off the busy thoroughfare that is Tooley St. The front part is bare boarded, bare brick walls with a mixture of booth tables, regular tables and chairs, some of which are v comfortable padded fabric bucket chairs. Quite a few mirrors on the walls and quite a bit of thin strip lighting that brightens the interior up in a bit of an operating theatre sort of style. There are a lot of nooks and crannies in the rear part of the venue, and I did eventually find a couple of carpeted areas towards the rear near the bathrooms. Had a decent late evening vibe on my visit that suggests this place will be a tolerable addition to the drinking scene in my own neighbourhood. The rear part does seem to provide a bit of calm from the front part seemingly popular with all male groups that look like they would collectively and individually fail the auditions for Tool Academy. Cheap beers but the Blue Maid and the Hand & Marrigold have nothing to fear in terms of beer offering and traditional setting, even though the arch setting of this newest of the new JDW's has some appeal and something a bit different for the area.
