Across Beer Rebellion’s 16 taps (six cask and 10 keg) you’ll find grog from south London regulars Fourpure, Siren and Gipsy Hill, plus some revered breweries from further afield in the UK. As well as familiar scuffed up furniture within, there’s a decent sized seating area out front where you can view the comings and goings of Queen’s Road.

Although this rooftop space is perhaps better known for its resident cinema (Rooftop Film Club), Bussey Rooftop Bar is visable from across the way at the ever-swarming Frank’s Café and should be considered as more than just a back-up plan when that rival rooftop is at capacity. Five storeys up, there’s bench seating, plenty of plant life and cocktails and craft ales to choose from. Take in the skyline a bit more at leisure.

Londoners continue to make the annual pilgrimage to this Peckham multi-storey car park’s roof for a Campari. The summer pop–up (typically from May to September) plays host to hundreds and the bar’s striking red tarpaulin cover has become as iconic as those sunset views. All walks of life make the trip to tick Frank’s off their London bucket list, so come early to avoid disappointment.
