Skylight
A Hidden Gem in the Heart of East London
Skylight "London's most imaginative rooftop bar" can be found in East London. Visitors looking for a variety of great experiences in the summer or winter can definitely find them here. Skylight is a rooftop venue that has the largest capacity for any rooftop venue in London, a venue that provides an amazing view, perfect for an Instagram feed. The venue has different sections that are available for the different needs of their customers. In addition, the theme and events differ during the summer and winter.
During the warmer periods of the year (June - November), the main outdoor area is filled with grass, and customers can play croquet (a classic English lawn game). Visitors can also play a french lawn game called Petanque and more choice can be found with the international game of Ping Pong. For those who would rather chill and relax, there is a choice to book 'premium seating' for up to six people, which includes some welcome drinks. There are also some more tables, but if customers need to reserve guaranteed seats, they can book them as well. There is also an indoor area that includes a full-service bar.
During the colder seasons of the year, from November to January, the popular and the only ice rink in Europe will return. Just like the summer themes, there would be places in the rooftop you could book for you and your friends, such as private igloos that can seat up to ten people, and even private huts. If you would want to be more on the active side of things, you may also play some ice-hockey shoot out. If you prefer to stay warm, they also have an indoor, heated area.
The venue also provides a variety of quality food, from poke to burgers, which changes during the theme change from summer to winter, to better the experience, and a large variety of beverages would also be available.
