THE RIPPED regulars of The Grapes flexed their muscles in the Narrow Street Fete's battle of the bars on Bank Holiday Monday.

The Narrow Street pub put down their pints to pull their way to victory for the second year running in the annual tug of war with neighbouring bar Booty's. The win gives The Grapes a 2-1 lead in the series, which is a highlight of the yearly community-run fete.

ARMED robbers tied up and threatened staff at Booty’s Riverside Bar before stealing the takings from marathon day.

The two men made off with £5,000 in the incident on Sunday night (April 13) immediately after closing time.

Det Con Dean Musgrove from Tower Hamlets police said: “Although nobody was injured, the staff were threatened. This bar has a good reputation and is not known for trouble. This has left the manager traumatised.”
