Netil 360 is the #1 daytime hangout in the capital since, open from 10am. The wifi reaches right to the rooftop, and it’s an ideal place for freelancers to work in the sunshine. And as day turns to night, DJs take to the decks, and cocktails start being mixed.

The Brunel Museum is a space dedicated to the famous engineer, but on Friday and Saturday nights, the rooftop opens up for its ‘Midnight Apothecary’. Cocktails made with herbs from the roof garden will be served up, and you can toast marshmallows on the fire too.

This rooftop is the place to be for south London’s nightlife lovers. The club’s outdoor terrace is spread across two floors and provides ample space for a drink and a boogie. From rooftop gigs to full on all-nighters, you can let your hair down here.

Peckham is the new “it” neighbourhood of London, and it’s all thanks to cool new openings like Frank’s Café, a pop-up café and bar on the top of a 10 storey car park. Where else in the capital can you find a £6 Negroni cocktail and an epic view to boot?
Lyric Hammersmith

There are plenty of opportunities to inject your London summer with a little culture. The Lyric Theatre will be hosting a full program of theatre performances, and you can treat yourself to al fresco dining before the show on the Lyric’s beautiful roof garden.

This garden is one of the hidden treasures of the Southbank, with many locals not even realizing it’s there. And there is plenty to explore – a wildflower meadow with 150 types of wildflowers, and a picnic area with a spectacular view.
