The Tower of London is a popular tourist attraction in the UK, welcoming over 3 million visitors each year. One hidden gem inside the Tower is an exclusive pub called The Keys. Run by the Tower’s serving Yeoman Warders, or “Beefeaters,” only they and their invited guests can enter. The pub features regal decor, including a 16th-century ceremonial ax and Yeoman Warder uniforms. It serves as a community hub and raises money for charities. The pub offers exclusive drinks with names like Beefeater Bitter and Treason. The Yeoman Warders, who have served in the military, have various roles, including guiding visitors and attending royal ceremonies. The Tower also has a superstition involving ravens, believed to protect the kingdom.
