- Visitor Information
The 'city beach' was the craze that swept through Europe in 2005, arriving everywhere from the tiniest towns to giant international cities like Paris and Berlin. The principle is simple: find a flat space, cover it in sand, you've got a beach!
London's weather used to be a little unreliable for this kind of thing, but they gave it a try in 2006, and it worked a treat. The City Beach Club is in the car park at the Truman Brewery, and offers deck chairs, a bar, music (with a refreshing 'no electro' policy), sand imported from Jamaica (I suppose organisers of City Beaches are broadly in favour of the greenhouse effect), and occasional activities like volleyball, and outdoor cinema.
It takes a certain leap of the imagination to convince yourself that it's a sweltering Biarritz evening - and you may not much fancy kicking off your flip-flops - but it makes a nice change from the run-of-the-mill Brick Lane bar and a good spot for an after-work drink. Kids are also made very welcome.
