"Taking place on the roof of one of West London’s most iconic buildings this summer is Storeys – a pop-up food experience from event production company Afternoon Delight LDN.
Launching on 31 July, Storeys will take place on top of the Multi Storey Car Park at Television Centre in White City, which was home to the BBC for sixty years up until 2013. Storeys will be a summer terrace hotspot, featuring striking artwork, some of the UK’s best street food traders and killer cocktails in a vibrant, urban setting. Set over two levels and spanning an impressive 24,000 square feet, Storeys will offer sweeping panoramic views of West London from nine storeys high.
Food lovers can choose from a series of dynamic street food traders; including a French American brunch menu from Le Bun, Crabbieshack’s soft shell crab burgers, finger-licking wings from Randy’s Wing Bar, succulent skewers from En Brochette, Asian-Carribean fusion from Yum Jungle, fresh Peruvian ceviche and anticuchos from Aji Ceviche, spicy jerk chicken from White Men Can’t Jerk, handmade gourmet ice lollies from Lickalix and more yet to be announced.
On Saturday and Sunday mornings, sleepyheads can wake themselves up with some quality espresso-based coffee or if it’s hair of the dog you’re after, head to the Bloody Mary bar, open for guests to help themselves while they kick back and relax on double day beds. Mixologists will also be serving expertly-crafted rum cocktails from the Rum Shack, while tropical fruit sharers, ice cold beer and more will be available from the TV Bar.
The interior will be bold and contemporary, with striking graphic elements and colourful wall murals.

Frank's Cafe - Peckham's Original Rooftop Pop-up - Back for 2015


Update - Open for 2016 from Thursday 19th May 2016

Franks Cafe, the rooftop restaurnt & bar in Peckham, re-opens for 2015 on Thursday 28th May.  Perched on the top of a multistorey car park, ten stories high, it's one of the original London pop-up restaurants - first opening for the summer in 2008 - and still one of the best.  Take the lift for the 10th floor, and walk up from there, past Bold Tencancies' art, til you get to the rooftop.  There you'll find the bar and restaurant open Tuesday-Sunday until 27th Sept, and serving seasonal food, freshly cooked.  Plus, the views are stunning!

"Frank's Cafe is the flagship architectural commission of Bold Tendencies in Peckham. The bar was designed by Practice Architecture (Paloma Gormley & Lettice Drake), and opened in 2008 by bartender Frank Boxer and chef Michael Davies.
Myles Donaldson will be overseeing the running of Frank’s kitchen.  Conceived after the meeting of two young chefs enrolled on a catering course in a rural town at the tail end of the 70’s; food is the only thing he knows. 
He will be sourcing the best seasonal produce, cherry picking from the abundance of a summer harvest and using the highest quality meat and fish. 
Treating the ingredients sympathetically with an array of modern, classic and ancient cooking techniques, he will bring an ever evolving menu to Frank’s summer 2015."

When - 28 May - 27 September 2015
Our opening hours are Tuesday - Sunday
Tuesday & Wednesday 5-11pm
Thursday - Sunday 11 - 11pm

Skylounge's Summer 'Nantucket Beach Club Rooftop Pop-up Bar in The City


Over the winter Skylounge was transfrormed into a 'Vodka Valhalla'; now for the summer of 2015 it's turning into a 'Nantucket Beach Club' bar, wth refreshing cocktails and seafood to match.  Open from 1st May on Tuesdays - Saturdays for the summer.  Expect views!

"Skylounge, the stylish rooftop bar atop the DoubleTree Hilton, Tower Hill, has announced the launch of Nantucket Beach Club - a new summer residency that will offer a taste of East Coast island living, right in the heart of the City.
Launching on 1st May 2015, Skylounge’s outdoor roof terrace has been transformed into a relaxing island retreat, complete with its very own lighthouse and swing-bench to kick back and relax in – inspired by the laid back and traditional charm of Nantucket, New England. Guests can unwind on warm summer evenings with a round of bowling at the club’s very own bowling alley or even practice their hand at shuffleboard.
After working up a thirst, the bar offers refreshing Snow Queen vodka slushies and summery cocktails such as the refreshing Surfside Punch named after Surfside beach in Nantucket and created with Camomile infused Snow Queen vodka and Lanson White champagne; or the Cape Codder Ale with Snow Queen vodka, cranberry juice and ginger ale, inspired by the traditional Cape Codder, a popular East Coast tipple — all to be enjoyed whilst soaking up the sun and unrivalled views of the City.
Embracing true New England cuisine, Nantucket Beach Club’s food menu features hearty and delicious seafood dishes. Indulge in Lobster mac and cheese, the Seafood Survival Bucket or signature Clam Chowder and lobster rolls, all topped off with a decadent Boston cream pie, as good as in Nantucket itself!
Open from 3pm until 10pm Tuesdays to Saturdays, with a VIP gazebo area available for private hire - Nantucket Beach Club combines New England tradition with East Coast cool and is the ultimate city spot to soak up the sunshine. Running until 30th September, there’s no excuse for any city dwellers to miss out on sophisticated island life this summer."
