Thames Water is also making its stylish ‘Tap Top’ carafes – designed specifically to serve London’s premium-grade tap water – available to the Houses of Parliament.
“I hope this encourages MPs to drink more tap water,” said Thames Water chief executive, David Owens.
Tap Tops were made as part of Thames Water’s award-winning London On Tap campaign to promote tap water as a viable alternative to bottled brands.
As well as 1,000 restaurants, various VIPs, including the Queen and the prime minister, Gordon Brown, will be getting carafes.
David Owens added: “According to the industry’s water quality watchdog, we have the best quality water of all the major water and sewerage companies in England and Wales, and we’ve got a first-class carafe in which to serve it. Our London On Tap campaign is helping give consumers the confidence to ask for tap water when dining out. We want to get as many of the capital’s eateries and bars involved as possible.
“Since launching the carafes in May, we’ve had great feedback from restaurateurs who’ve been using them. Many of their customers say Tap Top’s iconic design makes them more comfortable about choosing tap water.”
