The Rooftop
Situated in the heart of the city and at one of London's most iconic landmarks, The Rooftop, is an oasis set high in the sky overlooking Trafalgar Square and London's spectacular skyline.
Offering a seasonally changing menu of delicious European-inspired dishes and a carefully curated cocktail and drinks selection, The Rooftop is the perfect spot to unwind, relax and soak up those London views.
We're steps from notable landmarks, such as the National Gallery, and less than a mile from Buckingham Palace. Drink in city views and craft cocktails from The Rooftop bar, lauded as one of the best in the city.
The Rooftop bar is open daily offering incredible cocktails, small plates and our infamous take on afternoon tea, Tipple Tea.
Should you make a request for the outside area of The Rooftop, please be advised that while our team will always do their best to grant requests, this may not always be possible. Outdoor spaces are limited, so please ensure you book your reservation in advance.
