At the time of writing, it might not seem like the time to start talking about rooftop restaurants, but come late spring there's a new opening to keep an eye on. Sabine has already opened a rooftop bar in the City with a great view of St Paul's and now they're getting ready to open a second.

This time, they're taking over a rooftop in Holborn at the top of the NYX hotel. There's been a rooftop bar there for a while, but so far the hotel has struggled to give it an identity, something that Sabine should be able to help sort out. While there is a terrace with retractable windows,

A striking new building, looking like it's clad in shiny, reflective aluminium, is getting ready to open in Canary Wharf. And coming as part of that are a new Amazing Grace and a House of the Gods hotel with a rooftop bar and restaurant.

Taking Amazing Grace first, they're following up on their London Bridge live music venue (where they're inside a

The opening of The Chancery Rosewood is nearly upon us. Not since the opening of The OWO has such a large endeavour been launched, but unlike that hotel, most of these restaurants here are opening at the same time.

When the swanky art’otel chain opened its second London outpost in Hoxton in 2024, we told you about its ground-floor dining experience Brush East London Grand Café. Well, the hotel has just announced its latest restaurant, and

London's rooftop bar scene is stupidly competitive but one new opening this summer has an ace up their sleeve. Searcy's Bar & Brasserie in Westminster has been open for a while, but this is the first year they've let the general public up to their roof terrace. For the summer season, they've teamed up with the Bolney wine estate for a bar that has frankly jaw-dropping views of one of the city's most recognisable

London's rooftop spaces are open for an alfresco season like no other. Here's where you can dine outside and get a great view at the same time.

If you've ever watched Crazy Rich Asians and wondered what it was like dining at the top of that amazing hotel in Singapore, well you're soon going to get the next best thing. That's because CÉ LA VI, which is the restaurant, bar and club at the top of the famous Marina Bay Sands hotel, is opening in the rooftop space of the new Renzo Piano

It may not be the optimum time of year in London to be unveiling a new rooftop bar, but that's not stopping the folks at the Mandarin Oriental Mayfair. They're about to throw open the doors to the Abar Rooftop at their hotel just off Hanover Square.

The new bar boasts views across Mayfair, an area not all that blessed with good rooftop drinking spaces, and there'll be room for 50 indoors along

We’re not sure what snared our attention first: the mesmerising tango takeover videos on The Emory Hotel’s Instagram or the lure of access to a London rooftop that was previously only open for guests. Either way, you need to know that Argentinian bartender ‘Tato’ is bringing his

New rooftop restaurant Cornus is the first opening in over a decade from the team who brought us Medlar. We took a trip to Belgravia to check it out.

Fifteen years might be a long time between new restaurant concepts, but the team behind Medlar in Chelsea are finally ready to impress London with their next endeavour. It’s called Cornus and is opening atop the Ice Factory in Belgravia, an area surprisingly bereft of rooftop spaces.

They brought in Gary Foulkes as

It's already one of the buzziest new openings in the City. We took the lift up to the rooftop at Los Mochis City to check out the scene for ourselves. 

It's been just two years since the East London hotel One Hundred Shoreditch opened its doors, but it's already changed both of its restaurants in that short time. On the ground floor Sticks 'n' Sushi has taken over from the original spot Goddard & Gibbs and now on the rooftop, the unimaginatively named The Rooftop has given way to Kaso.

Although the look hasn't changed, the menu certainly

They've had restaurants up on their rooftop before, but this year John Lewis Oxford Street are trying something new with 1864 Rooftop Bar & Kitchen (which is named after the year John Lewis was founded).

This time around, it's a team-up with Benugo, and it sounds like they're going for more of a party vibe than before, with space for 200 standing, but only just over 60 if you
