Overview
This building may lack the quaint, traditional charm of some of the neighboring pubs (built in the late 1960's when anything triangular and concrete implied aesthetic kudos), but once you are inside this doesn't matter. Perched on the edge of the river with wrap around windows, The Founder's Arms offers spine-tingling panoramic views of St. Paul's Cathedral. Londoners and tourists alike compete for the treasured riverside seats, especially at sunset, so head here in the late afternoon to bag yourself a prime viewing spot. The inexpensive drinks and the location, next to the Tate Modern and the Millennium Bridge make this a perfect stop-off point.
