Located within the stunning Victorian railway arches of London Bridge since 1999, Vinopolis is composed not only of London’s premier wine tasting experience and visitor attraction, but also five bars and restaurants and over eight event spaces available for private and corporate hire. Visitors come from near and far to taste the 100+ wines they have on offer* and to enjoy a bite to eat in their unique location, only a stone’s throw from Borough Market. Vinopolis was developed by the wine merchant Duncan Vaughan-Arbuckle. He chose a site beneath the arches of a Victorian railway viaduct that was built in 1866 by the South-eastern Railway Company to carry an extension line from London Bridge Station over the Thames to the north bank. Vinopolis opened on July 23, 1999. Its first program was a four hour guided tour through static wine displays with tastings. The business has evolved over the years, and today it operates as both a wine tour and a corporate events venue. It is located at Bankside, to the east of Southwark Bridge and close to London Bridge on the south side of the River Thames. There is an attached restaurant, Cantina Vinopolis, and wine is available for sale at the attached Lathwaites Wine Store. Vinopolis spans 2.5 acres and is devoted to the world of wine, including its history, development and taste. Within the complex is also a specialist whisky retailer The Whisky Exchange which offers a range of several hundred whiskies and other spirits for sale. The Whisky Exchange also organises various whisky tasting events throughout the year at Vinopolis. Tourist Information Vinopolis
