Ok. I’ll start off with some TIPS and some points you should be aware of: 1. BOOK ahead. Don’t walk in and start moaning you can’t get a seat, as I heard several people do. The place is FULL everyday after 5pm and requires booking if you want a guaranteed seat. 2. The rooftop is very SMALL. As such there are different tables. The BEST tables are on the outside. The downside is that these tables are colder to sit at, but with unrivalled views. The further back you are, the lesser the view. The best table is in the top right hand corner if you are facing away from the bar. REQUEST a table by the ledge if you want good views. If you want to be warm, request a seat by the windows near the outdoor heaters. As of Sep 2024, there is a building site to the right of the bar. I would avoid sitting that side and put this in the your request. Not a great view from this end. 3. You have been warned…. It’s WINDY!! All year round. Very windy in fact. Dress appropriately. There is only a very small screen providing protection from the wind. 4. It can be very COLD! It’s London, we don’t get much sun and even when we do, evening times the sun sets in the west and the bar is located on the east side of the building and therefore it’s in the shade. Bring and jacket or a coat. Blankets and outdoor heaters are provided but we found it very chilly nonetheless. 5. It’s VERY expensive! Expect to pay around min £45 for a bottle of wine, £90 for a bottle of champagne, £7 for a small 330ml beer and £5 for a soft drink. All in all nice treat, but go eyes wide open, as I saw people come in who were woefully under prepared for all points I’ve mentioned above!
St. James Roof Top in London is a true hidden gem, offering one of the most stunning panoramic views of the city. Whether you’re a local or a tourist, this spot provides an unparalleled perspective of London’s iconic skyline, making it a perfect place to unwind and take in the breathtaking scenery. The ambiance is sophisticated yet relaxed, with a chic and modern design that complements the vibrant cityscape. It’s an ideal setting for everything from a casual evening out to a special celebration. The rooftop’s atmosphere is both inviting and elegant, creating a memorable experience from the moment you arrive. When it comes to the food, it is satisfactory. The menu offers a variety of options that are decent, though not particularly standout. However, the quality of the dishes is consistent, and there is something for everyone to enjoy. What the food might lack in wow factor, the exceptional setting more than compensates for. Customer service at St. James Roof Top is fine. The staff are attentive and courteous, ensuring that guests feel welcome and taken care of. While the service might not be exceptional, it is certainly adequate and contributes to a pleasant overall experience. In summary, St. James Roof Top is a fantastic place to visit for its incredible views and stylish ambiance. It’s a great spot to relax, enjoy the scenery, and have a good time. Despite the food being just okay and the service being fine, the overall experience is delightful and well worth a visit.
I was served a grilled calamari that included its innards inside the body tube, which were uncooked / raw. The staff were quite helpful, offering to exchange the dish and providing complimentary fries and soft drink - although without asking / offering any choice. That said, the experience was completely ruined, and this is not something I would have expected of this restaurant.
Wow. Amazing location with a lovely view. Service and drinks were amazing. To be honest I didn’t try any food just the desert sticky toffee pudding was really disappointed with that as it was really dry. However, the atmosphere and views made up for it. Definitely recommended as a romantic spot.Food: 3/5
Amazing Experience - We'll Definitely Be Back!Thank you so much to the entire team for taking such great care of us! We had an absolutely wonderful time, and every detail of our stay exceeded our expectations. The service was exceptional, and we truly felt welcomed throughout.We are already looking forward to our next visit and will definitely be coming back again. Keep up the fantastic work!
Lovely rooftop bar overlooking Trafalgar Square. Friendly staff and nice cocktails. The outside space is mostly covered and has heaters and blanket for the cold weather. Booking is recommended as it gets busy in the late afternoon.Food: 5/5
Lovely little place, quite small so best to book ahead. Outdoor seating is best for views, there are heaters if chilly. Very nice but also a bit pricey so be prepared. Rob the waiter was lovely, very friendly, helpful and always smiling.Service: 5/5
Enjoyed high quality food and cocktails at this popular restaurant located atop the Trafalgar St. James Hotel in London. None of our selections disappointed but special mention of the flavorful Pork Ribs and Grilled Seabass! The view is wonderful and goes along with the casual atmosphere. For our dinner, sweaters sufficed but know your weather before you go if you're planning to sit outside. Suggest making a reservation and checking the website for age limitations depending on time and day. 'Pricey' but can't complain given how much we enjoyed the evening.
Fabulous venue. Lovely, helpful staff. Great food. Couldn't ask for anything more.Highly recommend.Food: 5/5
A BIG LET DOWN AND RIP OFF . A massive let down , our first and last visit to this place, I have booked the "ROOFTOP" Table deposit £50 and in return we had table inside some old deco , no difference if you site In dungeon let alone rooftop. The host girl was rude and lying to all the customers that we all will have table outside, but no one ever had a table outside. We overheard many customers asking and expecting tables on the "ROOFTOP" but they were inside, after talking to them we all decided to leave the place, we waited 1h to have a table outside but no luck , paid some ridiculous prices I.e £17 for small glass of rose wine.. We don't mind paying the price ,but only if we get the table and the view , which was not the case. Please avoid this place , if you dont believe go.have experience yourself, not worth it , will never recommend to anyone , when you will se the picture you know what I mean , will 0 stars if there is an option . Ridiculous Buy a bottle of wine from tesco next door and sit in trafalgar Square.... much better atmosphere
