Prosecco DOC & London Rooftop Bars: Cheers with a View
There’s a moment—somewhere between the sun setting behind St Paul’s and the first lights flickering on in the City—when London turns into an open-air stage.
That’s the perfect time to head up high, escape the urban rush, and raise a glass. And if that glass holds the Italian sparkle of Prosecco DOC, the experience becomes a little ritual of beauty and lightness.
We’ve handpicked some of the best rooftop bars in the British capital for a picture-perfect aperitivo: creative cocktails, breathtaking views, and that unmistakable Italian flair that only Prosecco DOC can bring.
Tate Modern – The Corner Bar & Terrace
Perched above the Thames, blending contemporary art and city skyline, The Corner at Tate Modern is the perfect spot for a post-exhibit toast. Creative cocktails, a laid-back vibe, and a terrace overlooking St Paul’s: here, Prosecco DOC is enjoyed in a cultural yet surprisingly casual setting—ideal for a sunset aperitivo.
London Bridge Rooftop
The vibe here is distinctly pop and easy-going. On the seventh floor of Colechurch House, London Bridge Rooftop is the place to be if you’re after a mix of city views and good company. The drinks menu keeps it simple but spot-on: Aperol Spritz, Hugo, and other Prosecco DOC twists, all best enjoyed with live DJ sets and fiery sunsets behind The Shard. Friday is the perfect day to give it a go.
Wagtail Rooftop Bar
Just steps from Monument, Wagtail is a chic oasis nestled among the spires and rooftops of the financial district. Aperitivo here becomes an elegant ritual, especially on Sundays, when brunch includes the beloved free-flow Prosecco DOC. The setting is stylish, the service impeccable, and the 360° view over Tower Bridge and the London Eye makes every toast unforgettable.
Sabine Rooftop
If you’re looking for a green hideaway in the heart of the city, Sabine is your go-to. Just around the corner from St Paul’s Cathedral, this cosy, beautifully designed rooftop offers a relaxed yet refined experience. The bottomless brunch with Prosecco DOC is the perfect chance to enjoy Italian bubbles at your own pace—perhaps surrounded by tropical plants and Mediterranean-style decor.
12th Knot – Sea Containers London
Sophisticated, dramatic, international. 12th Knot, perched atop Sea Containers on the South Bank, is the ideal rooftop for an evening of elegance. Prosecco DOC cocktails often star in themed nights and special events. One of the city’s most iconic locations, the venue offers stunning views over London’s skyline and the Millennium Bridge.
Whether you’re in London for work, on holiday, or simply chasing a fresh perspective on the city, a rooftop with a glass of Prosecco DOC is the most elegant way to celebrate it. Sipping Italian bubbles as the sun dips behind the London Eye is a small, accessible luxury—a fleeting moment that feels like home, even when you’re far from it.
