The evening begins under the glow of London’s skyline: a dinner at The Larch followed by an ascent to one of the capital’s highest public gardens. Glass lifts deliver you above the city, and for an hour you move through planted beds and paths where the skyline leans close—The Shard, Tower Bridge and the Tower of London line up like urban markers daring you to frame the perfect shot.
Sky Garden occupies the top floors of the Walkie Talkie building, a recent addition to the City’s skyline opened in 2015 and designed with dramatic overhangs and public green space in mind. Geologically, you’re perched above centuries of Thames-side development; culturally, this is a modern London ritual—pizza or pasta at sundown, then a slow walk through managed greenery and curated planting that attracts bees and city birds.
Practicalities are direct: the experience is two hours total—roughly one hour for a fixed 2-course Italian meal with gelato or sorbet at The Larch, then one hour for Sky Garden access and an audio guide available in several languages. Note the outdoor terrace may be closed and the balcony closes early for security; bags are searched and the venue is cashless. Bring ID (over-18 rules apply at evening times), arrive on time for your allocated dining slot, and download the audio guide via provided QR code—WiFi is available.
For a city night that balances easy dining with elevated views and accessible green space, this pairing is an efficient, photogenic way to experience London from above; plan for variable wind, dress in layers, and let the skyline pull your attention from plate to panorama.

Sky Garden opened with the Walkie Talkie building in 2015 as a public rooftop garden intended to reintroduce green space to the City of London’s high-rise skyline.
The roof garden supports urban biodiversity and reduces roof runoff; visitors are asked to stay on paths and avoid disturbing plantings to protect habitats.
