The inventive cocktails only add to its allure: Dragon Air or Butterfly Punch, anyone? Word to the wise \u2013 this isn\u2019t the place to spontaneously stop by after 6pm because it\u2019ll be packed to the rafters, so plan to reserve a table in advance.<\/p>\n<p><strong>The Trafalgar St. James, Soho<br \/>\n<\/strong>https:\/\/trafalgarstjames.com\/the-rooftop<\/p>\n<p>The Rooftop at The Trafalgar St. James is perfect when you\u2019ve got your heart set on a post-work rooftop tipple, but the weather takes a turn for freezing. The venue has both open-air and canopy seating, complete with blankets and heaters, so you can cosy up in a covered corner while still admiring the city views. Alternatively, if the sun is shining, you can catch the rays while lounging in the conservatory, enjoying a glass of something delicious.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Alto by San Carlo, West End<br \/>\n<\/strong>https:\/\/sancarlo.co.uk\/restaurants\/alto-by-san-carlo<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019ve been looking out the office window at a gorgeous summer day and you\u2019re in despair that it\u2019s passing you by, head to Selfridges after work. The rooftop offers an alfresco Little Italy for you to enjoy the London sunshine with a Bellini in your hand. Grab a serving of spaghetti gamberoni piccanti and you\u2019ll almost fool yourself into pretending you\u2019re on a rooftop in Milan (and don\u2019t have to go back to work tomorrow).<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-10841\" src=\"https:\/\/tiger-recruitment.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/06\/Gallery-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"Sunset picture of the rooftop bar with tables and chairs lit from below\" width=\"601\" height=\"400\" \/><\/p>\n<h6><em>Image Credit: Trafalgar St James\u00a0<\/em><\/h6>\n<p><strong>Capeesh Sky Bar, Canary Wharf<br \/>\n<\/strong>https:\/\/capeesh.co.uk\/sky-bar-london<\/p>\n<p>London\u2019s financial hub isn\u2019t well known for its culture and nightlife, but we\u2019ve found the perfect summer venue for those trapped in the office all day. Capeesh Sky Bar offers a panoramic view of London that is actually better once the sun goes down. Twinkling lights and the Thames provide a breathtaking backdrop for a lovely evening 48 floors up.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Big Chill, Kings Cross<br \/>\n<\/strong>https:\/\/bigchillbar.com\/kings-cross<\/p>\n<p>Big Chill boasts a couple of venues across the city, but the King\u2019s Cross location is the only one with a rose-tinted rooftop. The venue is playing into our deepest summer fantasies with bright d\u00e9cor, fruity drinks and fancy food. A special collab with Chuck Burgers has resulted in a gin-infused pancake stack \u2013which may be slightly gimmicky, but when the sun is out and you\u2019ve just stepped out into a glorious afternoon, this is where you\u2019ll want to be.<\/p>\n<h6><em>Header Image credit: Jin Bo Law<br \/>\n<\/em><\/h6>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>When summer starts to roll in, London\u2019s rooftops come alive with some fantastic venues in which to drink and chat.
