The East India Arms on Fenchurch Street is the only building left in the City with a direct link to the East India Company, dating to 1829 on a site that housed the Magpie Ale House from at least 1645. It's a stop on the City of London Welcome to the Empire walking tour. Inside, wooden floors and old photographs keep the traditional feel, and the pub serves cask ales with classic bar snacks rather than a full menu. It's close to Fenchurch Street station and the Tower of London.

The Bunch of Grapes is the latest addition to the Nicholson's iconic pub collection. We are perfectly located in the heart of the City of London, on the corner of Leadenhall Market. Nicholson’s Pubs are known for their individual style, exciting stories, and charming personalities – and The Bunch of Grapes is no exception. The current building dates to the Victorian times, although there has been a pub on this site for nearly 500 years, so we’re steeped in history. It is a great spot to catch up with friends, relax with family, chat with colleagues, and generally enjoy the finer things in life.
