When I stay at the Tower Hotel next door, I stop here every morning on my way to work and get a coffee, and sometimes breakfast as well.
This Starbucks is not usually too busy (which is nice), but even when it is they manage to get orders out reasonably quick. It is always clean and well staffed, and I have never had anything happen here that would warrant marking them down in a review for.
The only shortcoming of this particular location is that there isn't a lot of seating inside, but they do have quite a bit outside along the Thames, which is very nice. The location is right next to Tower Bridge and the Tower of London, with St. Katharine's Docks right next door as well. If you are a tourist, this is a prime location to grab your morning coffee and breakfast before you start your day.
This location closes pretty early (7:00pm), but I guess there's not a great need for coffee much after that anyway.
Overall a nice location and a familiar bit of home for traveling Americans staying next door at the Tower Hotel. read more
