Perched above a bustling bookstore, this restaurant offers a splendid panorama of the Westminster area, promising a respite from the crowds below. The venue serves as both a cocktail bar and casual dining spot, where visitors can appreciate an array of mixed drinks, including Aperol spritzes, Tom Collins, and house margaritas. While the menu primarily features light bites such as avocado toasties and assorted cakes, the views often seem to be the main attraction. However, the decor can evoke the mood of a dated cafeteria, with plastic seating under stark lighting, a detail somewhat offset by cheerful and accommodating staff. Happy hour deals are available, providing an enticing opportunity for patrons to relax amidst the London skyline. Despite its potential for refinement, it remains a quirky vantage point for book lovers seeking a brief retreat.
