About 5th View Bar and Food @ Waterstones
The views alone are worth making your way to the 5th floor of Waterstones Piccadilly, the largest book store in Europe. Big Ben, the London Eye and the Houses of Parliament can all be admired from this airy, mahogany-heavy cocktail lounge and café fashioned from the top floor of the once grand Simpson's department store. Beautiful savoury tarts and salads are served for lunch, followed by scrumptious afternoon tea and cakes, and then tapas in the evening. 5th View is rightly proud of international beers and amazing cocktails. An easygoing bar that works for virtually all occasions – catch ups, relaxed dates and business meetings.
Opening hours:
Mon - Sat 10am - 10pmSun 12pm - 6pmBank Holidays: 12pm - 6pm
At its Authors’ Table, 5th View offers books of the week to browse.

Don't go to 5th View Bar and Food for a quick lunch the service is incredibly slow and we had to ask twice for our coffees. Very expensive for what it is, a cafe in a bookshopReview
Nice cafe style place to escape the hustle of central london during the day, lots of people about but felt relaxed. Service was attentive, and quick, essential for a quick lunch. Would visit again!Review
5th View Bar & Restaurant at Waterstone's, Piccadilly. (Note: they close at 10pm) Had a surprise birthday party there for my boyfriend. There were 10 of us and we had 4 sets of sofas with good view. Service was good and we had a cocktail each + 3 bottles of wine. Drinks prices were average but the snacks were a bit pricey so just ordered a few plates. Turned out just over £22 each. Anyway it had a relaxing atmosphere and we had a great time.Visitors
