Nine Elms Tavern

Smart, Thames-side Young's pub opened in 2015 as part of the extensive Nine Elms development between Battersea Power Station and Vauxhall. A bright, modern, split-level bar, with a nautical theme and much timbering, it is on the ground floor of an apartment block. Glass walls allow views of the river. The outside terrace is popular. Food choices include sourdough pizzas and pub classics. Riverlight Quay bus stop (services 156 and 344) is nearby.
