With autumn around the corner, here’s our pick of London’s rooftop bars to enjoy the last of the summer sun…

Lost in Brixton

Pergola On The Roof have taken over a ‘never-before-seen’ rooftop above Brixton Village and with a 440 capacity, it’s large enough to get lost in! Impress your friends with the ‘hidden staircase’ and have food brought directly to you from the market below via a table service app.

Madison Rooftop Terrace

With a glamorous, yet chilled ambience and great views of St Paul’s and the surrounding area, it’s no surprise that Madison was named the 2^nd most Instagrammed spot in London. Its wide range of delicious cocktails will keep you sipping all night long, and if you get cold, there’s heaters or an inside space to keep you warm…

The Queen of Hoxton Rooftop Terrace

This hugely popular drinking den in the heart of the East End reflects the chilled out, hip vibe of its Shoreditch postcode. The wood-decked rooftop is where it’s at, hosting all kinds of fantastical pop-up events as it gets redressed throughout the year, from ‘Las Mexicanas’ to ‘Moroccan Medina’.
