Savage Gardens, Tower Hill, EC3N 4AF

Undoubtedly one of the best rooftop bars near Fenchurch Street, Savage Gardens situated on the top floor of the DoubleTree by Hilton has incredible views over London. It’s nicely appointed with a luxurious modern twist on traditional bar décor – lots of dark browns, plush upholstery and lighting that makes the glasses and bottles twinkle like jewels. The place serves everything from signature cocktails to bar snacks and sharing platters.

 

The Ship, 3 Hart Street, EC3R 7NB

 If it’s a traditional boozer you’re after, look no further than this cosy pub tucked away in a corner just off Fenchurch Street in a renovated Grade II listed building. It serves a great selection of quality cask ales that change on a regular basis, speciality beers and wines. It’s dog friendly too. It’s a refreshing change to the usual drinking holes that are packed with city workers come five o’clock.

 

South Place Hotel, 3 South Place, EC2M 2AF

City workers usually head to this hotel for its famed Michelin-starred restaurant Angler, but what you might not know about is a hidden courtyard in the centre of the building that is an oasis of calm complete with trickling waterfalls and lush palm trees. Specialities include champagne, cocktails and cigars. Perfect for wiling away a summer’s evening and undoubtedly one of the best outdoor bars near Fenchurch Street.

 

14 Hills, 120 Fenchurch Street, EC3M 5BA

Enjoy a range of cocktails 14 floors above Fenchurch Street with breathtaking panoramic views over London. There’s also a range of alcohol-free cocktails, wines, spirits, beer, hot beverages and bar snacks. Decorated with lush greenery, the cocktail bar feels as if it were located in the middle of a stylish jungle, hence its nickname ‘forest in the sky’. The place is a veritable visual feast.

 

Byward Kitchen & Bar, Byward Street, EC3R 5BJ

With a beautiful courtyard situated next to the oldest church in the City of London, this is a contender for the best outdoor bar in Fenchurch Street. Inside, there’s a light and airy restaurant with floor-to-ceiling windows, but nothing beats socialising outdoors with a historic backdrop and enough greenery to make you feel as if you’ve escaped from the hustle and bustle of London life.

 

Wagtail Rooftop Bar and Restaurant, 68 King William Street, EC4N 7HR

With views of iconic London landmarks such as St Pauls, The Shard and the Gherkin, the private terraces on top of this building are the perfect place to watch the sunset. If the weather’s inclement the dining area and indoor bar are also impressive, although the rooftop terrace bar is covered and there are heaters to ward off the cold. The bars stay open until 1.30 am from Wednesday through to Saturday.
