1. The Residence
đTower Hill
Rooftop roundup: Called The Residence because it is! It’s actually where people book a very large swanky amazing apartment in the hotel â part of why itâs was just a summer âpop upâ. Hoping it will return and be a summer staple as the staff are super friendly, the views incredible, tunes are chilled and itâs all rather perfect.

3. Franks
đPeckham
Rooftop roundup: The original Peckham rooftop open for over a decade. Insta worthy pink stair case and many flights of stairs to climb but worth it to come and chill with a group of friends. Suits all types tho disclaimer they do serve drinks in plastic cups (as do many rooftops for health and safety reasons but they provide plastic flutes or wine glasses, a little remiss for the princesses out there but if it doesnât bother you then probably perfect place for you!Closes end of September.

4. Culpepper
đAldgate
Rooftop roundup: It really is a restaurant in a garden oasis. The thing I like most about this rooftop is they keep the roof free from standing room only and you can book. You can also wing it on the day and see if there is space – they offer a fab service of buzzing you if a table becomes free. Food is great, views spectacular, service superb.
