  “Visited this yesterday for my friend’s birthday celebration at 3pm. Air temperature was 30c and the sun was at full strength, but this rooftop cafe has not got any sun parasols which made it unbearable to sit up there. In fact, we left early because it was far too hot to sit up there 🥵”

  “The best rooftop I've ever been to!!! The food is literally to die for especially the peppers & feta dip! The staff was so attentive, caring and sweet. Celebrated my 22nd here and I'd definitely come to celebrate again! Thank you for your amazing service”

  “A cute little hideaway from the hustle and bustle of the London streets This place offers small bite plates / desserts / drinks - the coffee stops at lunch time so bare that in mind I had an espresso martini - it was balanced perfectly. My partner had Camden down brewery beer - he said it was nice cold and crisp. We ordered a pavlova to share *I wish we ordered one each. It was divine!! A beautifully executed fresh spring/summer dessert to be had not overly sickening just the right amount of sweetness with the tartness from the sorbet and coulee. The decor and furnishings felt like a Wimbledon style primrose garden - I LOVED it.”

  “The drinks menu is exceptional — expertly mixed cocktails, crisp wines, and refreshing non-alcoholic options. We tried the signature spritz and a few small plates, and every dish was fresh, flavourful, and perfectly presented. Service was warm, attentive, and genuinely friendly — the team clearly cares about making each guest feel welcome. It’s the perfect spot for a relaxed catch-up with friends, an al-fresco lunch, or a sunset drink after shopping. Five stars all the way — we’ll definitely be back! 🥂”

  “We visited the roof terrace at John Lewis over the weekend and had a fantastic experience. The setting is beautiful with a great vibe, perfect for a casual catch-up or a special treat. The food was really impressive, and the service truly stood out—exceptionally attentive, professional, and made the whole experience feel that extra bit special. Looking forward to returning again soon!”

  “Good experience and great hidden gem for the location! Greeted by lovely staff member at the door! Did not have any reservation for 2 but was given a table almost immediately! We ordered Hugo Spritz’s which were divine! Service was quick and beautifully presented! Had been here once before last summer, which was also a good experience! Atmosphere was lovely and full of a good mixture of people of all age groups! Only thing I would say was the music was a little too bass heavy and harsh but was still a vibe! Very happy would visit again!”

  “We’re regulars at John Lewis Roof Fest on Oxford Street, and every visit is a delight. On our recent trip, we wanted our daughter-in-law from Zurich to share the wonderful rooftop atmosphere. At first, there were no tables available, but thanks to the kindness and dedication of Manager Suzanne, who went out of her way to find us a spot, our evening turned magical. Her warm smile and genuine care made us feel truly valued. We enjoyed delicious drinks, canapés, and the stunning views — but it was Suzanne’s thoughtful gesture that made the experience unforgettable. We look forward to returning soon and thank the whole team for making Roof Fest so special!© Ash – Cash (on Google) And Ash & Karen (on TripAdvisor)”

  “I just want to write a review how lovely this place and wonderful atmosphere when my friend text me and she told me the place over charged us with a Margarita coctail (13£). 😡 I know we should check the bill there before paying but we had to get to a event. We trust them we paid what we had. Big mistake.”

  “Rebranded to Willows. Offers rooftop dining and drinks. Nice on a summers day. The drinks menu isn't extensive. Didn't try any food. The views are pretty much non existent. Dont expect a good view. Still. Something to do when on Oxford Street.”
