  • "Beautiful rooftop bar, especially for summer. The bar overlooks St Paul’s Cathedral."
  • "The setting is beautiful with a gorgeous backdrop of St Paul's and an amazing view of the London skyline."
  • "You can't ignore the views - they are essentially the reason that you're paying £16 for a cocktail, and the view is spectacular."

  • "Rooftop bar with lovely views."
  • "Stunning views of St Paul’s Cathedral."
  • "Gorgeous views of the shard and St Paul's."

Cons:

  • "The atmosphere is great as they have a live DJ and saxophonist, however the service really lets it down."
  • "The place was lacking any ambiance. You are not allowed to smoke on the terrace, only vape."
  • "We struggled to get a waiter's attention to order, and it wasn’t very busy."
  • "One of the worst welcoming experience I ever had."
  • "The mirror in the lift is all cracked & broken... And that is your first impression of the bar which is a bit naff!"
  • "Outside was bit cold and windy, and no table heaters, but we did have a blanket."
  • "Unfortunately I had to lower my rating for this place as I am stunned to hear that this place has £50 pp policy for the terrace seats."
  • "Hideous design every wall plastered with fake plastic flowers and garish neon signs."
  • "The view was stunning and the food was delicious...however, considering we booked the terrace with a £50 per person minimum spend we were physically unable to drink £50 worth of drinks in 2 hours."
  • "Only giving two stars for the view but unfortunately wouldn't recommend or ever go back."

  • "The food and drinks are ok, nothing extraordinary but ok."
