The Peacock, Tower Hill

I got dragged in here by a couple of mates who wanted to scratch a few pubs in the Fenchurch street Tower Hill area on route to a dire football game at Dagenham.
I have to say the choice of ales was first class , I tried two , Hooky and Ringwood and they were the BEST kept ales I have ever tasted in London, the bar stewardess a young blonde girl was also very friendly to us and wanted to discuss the good beer and good pubs in the area, we were introduced by the owner / the landlord, Gary, who was really a friendly guy with a Great Sence of Humour, he delayed going out to visit a colleague to speak to us, he made us laugh with his jokes about where he originated from ,then after a long conversation about Good Real Ale and the best pubs in London, was kind enough to take us to one of his few fave bars in the area, he there bought us each a drink.
The peacock is Very Clean and tidy and lager and cider drinkers are catered for, we didn't have time for food , but upstairs we were told there was a pool table and a Great Juke box if you like real ale with music , I might be in the minority for this ,but I do . Yes I was most impressed with The Peacock and will be back there again on my next trip to London.
