Above all, the visual appearance of Skylon is amazing. Taking the name from the futuristic looking tower that represented the 1951 Festival of Britain, great care has gone into the design of not only the room and decor, but also the waiter uniforms and furniture. When I say “futuristic”, I of course mean from a 1950′s perspective. The result is a lovely retro feel that makes me think of the Jetsons family.

Central to the restaurant is the stunning cocktail bar. The view and the bar alone makes this place worth a visit. Grab a salad at EAT, sit down somewhere on the bank and enjoy your lunch, then go to Skylon for a cocktail lunch dessert…
