Where do Bishopsgate locals go?
Tate Modern Kitchen & Bar
Nothing quite like sitting down with a cold, crisp glass of wine after a stroll along the south bank. The bar on the 6th floor of Tate Modern also comes with one of the best views in town AND the added benefit of supporting a fantastic arts institution. Later weekend opening times make this a great place to watch the sunset.Read more

"The Queen is not allowed to enter the City of London without a formal ceremony undertaken by the Lord Mayor. This ceremony recognises the Queen's authority, but the right of the City to handle its own affairs."
The street art on this wall is constantly changing, which makes for a beautiful and rousing walk to work every morning. Expect the unexpected on Great Eastern Street!
