Where: PocketSquare Skyline Bar & Terrace, Hyatt Place London City East, 45 Whitechapel Rd, London E1 1DU
If you enjoy rooftop locations you're in luck, as there's a brand new one in town: PocketSquare is on the ninth floor of the Hyatt Place London City East hotel. From here you'll get views of the Gherkin, Canary Wharf and the O2 centre, while you can choose from a drinks menu that revolves heavily around gin-based cocktails.
When it's too chilly to sit outdoors there's a bright, airy indoor space boasting floor-to-ceiling windows so you don't miss out on too much.
