Thames Distillers raises our spirits with its new home and bar in London

Thames Distillers new home and Fords bar, is an industrial gin brick distillery with a glamorous bar clad in green stone.

The new home of Thames Distillers, the 11th-generation, family-led company of gin makers, is tucked away within a cobble-stoned, period industrial complex off London’s Old Kent Road. While at first glance, the business’s new setting might seem utilitarian and unassuming, it is one steeped in a history of making, trade and crafts, sitting in a part of the capital that has, in the past, teemed with production facilities, due to its proximity to global trade routes via the former Grand Surrey Canal.
