The City Pride, Isle of Dogs

I'd heard City Pride was closing down so I hadn't been down for a while- what a fool I was! I love this pub, its a traditional English Pub right in the heart of the docklands. You feel like you've stumbled upon a little oasis as soon as you see it. The staff are great fun and promised me that the pub would be open this year but couldn't promise about next. This might be our last Summer to enjoy the Beer Garden! The Beer Garden is without question the best I have found in London, its huge and there is always a fantastic atmosphere.
The pub has a great choice of beer, they have 'real ale' which my northern mates raved about- apparently you can't beat it- they have a really excellent wine list and a nice menu. I'm working through the wine menu but I don't feel it would be fair to recommend one until I've tried them all a few more times! (I'll be sat in the beer garden for most of the summer conducting this research if anyone is looking for me, hope to see you there.)
