Vertigo 42 Description
Vertigo 42 is featured in these Guides:
The highest bar in the UK, Vertigo is a dramatic and impressive destination. Perched on the 42nd floor of the former Natwest Tower (now Tower 42), Vertigo 42 is a narrow corridor that circles the tip of the building and looks out from the heart of the City over all corners of London.
The size means there's only room for about 70 including standing space, but to really get the most out of the place, it's best to book a 4-seater table in advance. Tables 1-4 offer the best views over the Thames, Tower Bridge, St Paul's & co, while the late bookers will be left with (still impressive) views over N, E & W London.
Vertigo 42 is open to the public Monday to Friday from 12pm to 3pm and 5pm to 11pm. Last reservation 9.45pm.

“Went to Vertigo last night, had a great time. No it's not cheap but that's clear in advance. The staff were great, polite and always making sure our drinks were topped up. It's a spectacular place but if you don't want to pay the money money, it's simple...don't go!”

“"the cheapest drink comes in at £10 a glass and you rate it value for money - wish i was earning your salary (sorry didn't get chance to try the £1295.00 Veuve Clicquot, Ponsardin Yellow Label Brut)."
In response to above, suggest user reads wine list more carefully, £1295 is the price for a Nebuchadnezzar (20 Bottles), so works out at £64.75/bottle, pretty much what you would expect to pay. Am going to Vertigo this weekend, will let you know what it's like (hopefully not full of uncultured idiots).”

“If you are not afraid of heights and want do something more glamorous and discrete than beeing on the London Eye why not try this most luxurious view of London all for only £10 set menu.
Located on Level 42 of the former Nat West Tower, the Bizarre pan-London skyline has fantastic views, it's brilliant watching London light up, would definitely recommend a sun-set visit.
But in case you are interested in classy cocktails, seafood and champagne menu Don't forget the wallet!”
