The Gods Rooftop Bar

✦ Matched space

The Gods Rooftop Bar is a three-tier outdoor terrace on the roof of the Hippodrome, with open-air views across Soho. Timber decking and metal balustrades support pergolas that divide the space into separate seating bays, with planting and low walls creating a layered, contemporary urban layout. Mixed-height tables and lounge seating sit alongside a staffed bar, with distinct covered bays for smaller groups. The rooftop has Wi-Fi, wheelchair access and accessible toilets, and allows an external DJ subject to noise restrictions. Natural daylight floods the space. It suits informal, drinks-led receptions and relaxed standing gatherings, and guests find it energetic without feeling overwhelming, maintained in a well-organised, clean condition.
