The new site promises to stay open with food, drink and live music all on the menu. The new space, which is still under construction, will take over the rooftop of the Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, and overlook Peckham Square. With room for 250, like the first Skylight it will be a huge bar space, though will also serve breakfast, lunch and supper. Its highlight will likely be the large terrace, set to stay open late throughout the summer. Drinks on offer will include a regularly updated wine list, a few beers on tap and cocktails designed by Sebastian Hollingworth... The venue will open till 1am on Fridays and Saturdays and 12.30am the rest of the week, and promises to be a lively one, with both DJ sessions and live music gigs to be offered, as well as themed – and likely boozy – brunches. A sophisticated and stylish offering.

Includes an on-trend tequila serve called the Cinco Picante, which features a popular Mexican spirit stirred up with Cointreau, sweetened with peach and then given a kick with a splash of homemade chilli liqueur.

Cinco Picante (tequila, Cointreau, peach, and homemade chilli liqueur) South London iced tea (a twist on a Long Island ice tea, which adds brandy and cranberry juice) Bee’s Knees (a riff on the classic gin-lemon-honey martini, swapping the gin for vodka with locally made honey)

mood Huge bar space with a large terrace; lively atmosphere with DJ sessions, live music gigs, and themed brunches; sophisticated and stylish.

It may have only opened last year, but Skylight Peck0ham has already made a name for itself as one of the Peckham rooftop bars to have in your little black book. Slightly bougier than the Tobacco Dock original, Skylight Peckham hones in on the best bits of its older sister – in other words, the cocktails and the food – adds in a hefty dollop of gorgeous views and lets rip. Unlike some of Peckham’s other rooftop spots, there’s also a substantial indoor area to hunker down in on a rainy or chilly day.
