"Skylight Peckham serves non-alcoholic drinks with a view of the whole of London. Hit up this huge rooftop restaurant and bar for drinks like an apple and blackberry nojito. Yes, they do go pun-heavy but their non-alcoholic options are worth the slight cringe you might have when ordering. The views really are quite something and they have live jazz events throughout the week. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Sinead Cranna
"Peckham is home to some pretty epic sunsets. We know this because Peckham is also home to a lot of rooftop bars. Skylight Peckham is one of them, and importantly, it’s probably the fanciest. Less industrial low-key cool and more swanky private beach club, it serves weekend bottomless brunches, hosts live jazz events, and serves a spritz-heavy cocktail menu. In winter it’s prepared with a pergola, heaters, and blankets out on the big terrace." - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Sinead Cranna

Less industrial, low-key cool and more swanky private beach club, they have an all-day menu that takes you from crushed avocado and smoked salmon, to crab and chilli tagliatelle, and Darjeeling tea panna cotta. There are also weekend bottomless brunches, live music events throughout the week, and a spritz-heavy cocktail menu. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Jake Oliver, Rianne Shlebak, Sinead Cranna, Daisy Meager

When it comes to the food you can expect an assortment of tarted-up nibbles like corn ribs, roasted garlic truffle fries, and caviar-topped oysters. None of it will change your life, but that’s OK because realistically you’re here for two things. The cocktails and that incredible view. photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch photo credit: Aleksandra Boruch" - Heidi Lauth Beasley
"Private beach clubs are essential in the summer. Well, they are for people who live in places that have access to beaches that don’t involve confronting a Hyde Park swan. But if you’re after that whole pastel cushions and pass-me-the-towel look then Skylight, a huge rooftop bar in Peckham, has got you covered. You’re here for the sunset views and casually taking a selection of thirst-trap pictures with your spritz. There’s often live music in the bar inside, which yes, will also make for an excellent background cocktail content soundtrack. " - Heidi Lauth Beasley, Sinead Cranna
