Rooftop Spots in London: Views, Drinks & Photo Tips

If you love a good skyline, a cool drink, and a spot that looks great on Instagram, London’s rooftops are worth a look. You don’t need a guidebook – just a few clues about where to go, when to go, and how to enjoy the height without hassle.

Top Rooftop Bars & Views

Sky Garden – Free entry, but you must book a slot online. The three‑storey garden gives you a 360° view of the city, plus a few bars that serve light bites. Arrive a little early to grab a good spot before the crowd spreads.

Radio Rooftop – On top of the ME London hotel, this place mixes modern design with a relaxed vibe. The cocktail menu is solid, and the view of the Thames is perfect for sunset shots. Dress smart‑casual; they keep the door policy a bit strict.

The Shard’s Viewing Gallery – It’s not a bar, but the observation deck on the 72nd floor offers the clearest view of the capital. If you want a drink, head to the nearby bar on the 31st floor afterwards – you’ll still feel like you’re floating.

Queen of Hoxton – A quirky rooftop in Shoreditch with rotating art installations. The vibe is laid‑back, and the price of a pint stays reasonable compared to the West End spots. Great for a casual night out with friends.

Tips for a Great Rooftop Experience

Plan your visit around sunset – the sky changes colour fast, and the city lights start to sparkle. Arriving 30 minutes early gives you time to pick a spot, order a drink, and set up your phone for photos.

Check the dress code before you go. Most rooftops ask for smart‑casual, and some won’t let you in with flip‑flops or sportswear. A simple blazer or a nice shirt usually does the trick.

Bring a small bottle of water. Rooftop venues can get warm, especially in summer, and the air feels thinner up high. Staying hydrated helps you enjoy the night longer.

If you want the best Instagram shot, use the “golden hour” light – the hour after sunrise or before sunset. Position yourself with the skyline as a backdrop, and use the railings or stairs as a natural frame.

Finally, be mindful of the weather. A quick check on the forecast can save you from a windy, rainy surprise. Many rooftops have covered areas, but an unexpected downpour can dampen the whole vibe.

London’s rooftop scene keeps growing, so there’s always a new spot to try. Keep an eye on social media for pop‑up events, and don’t be afraid to explore off‑the‑beaten‑path terraces in hotels or office buildings. With the right timing and a bit of preparation, you’ll get the perfect view, a tasty drink, and photos that make your friends jealous.
