Tourists and commuters flocking back to the capital have provided a much-needed sales boost at pub chain Fuller’s, the firm said today.

The Chiswick-based business, which runs The Banker in Cannon Street and The Churchill Arms in Notting Hill (above in its Christmas finery), said central London and City sites have seen revenues rise by 20% over the past seven weeks against the prior year, despite the impact of Tube and train strikes. Group sales grew 13% overall.
