Shoreditch Sky Terrace

Clerkenwell, Shoreditch & Spitalfields


Set atop the Grade II–listed Courthouse Hotel in the centre of Shoreditch, this rooftop bar has fantastic views of London’s skyline. During the week it’s a great spot for a date – the atmosphere is lively but tables are spaced far enough apart to ensure privacy. Come the weekend it’s more of a party venue, as DJs take the stage.
