OxanaMarch 13, 2013One of the best place to see whole London from 32 and33 floor!Best time come to the bar between 6-6.20pm for watching difference between day viewing and London by night!Then can stay for a nice dinner
Nana AhenkanJanuary 17, 2014Amazing views of London City. food was nice, not really my favourite type of cuisine. However the customer service was very good. Our waitress was very attentive & made effort as it was my birthday.
MelsonDecember 16, 2014Stunning views and great cocktails. Choice the bar area for diner: best deal and menu while restaurant menu is as expansive as classic.
Mihnea MiculescuAugust 15, 2014Good vibes with a great view. Find a party to go to in the main area, or go for some quieter drinks in the viewing gallery. Don't even think about not calling ahead.
Iolie SymeouOctober 27, 2014a bit pricey paid £15 for a spritz (even the best cocktail bars dont charge this much) but omg the views... way better than any other rooftop bar I've been to...
Daniel MurphyJuly 11, 2013The food and service was great. The wine was top notch and the view tops everything off... recommended! Try the veal...tasty...
- Andrew RogoffSeptember 28, 2014Try the chateaubriand - very tasty and great chips. Get here early for a table right by the window.
Martin KRAugust 20, 2014Amazing view over the London with great food. They have a unique way to re-invent traditional english dishes. Food + view = fab eve
Pınar ŞahinJanuary 6, 2015Amazing view, very good and interesting coctails. It is a nice experience to watch sunset at the sky bar which is on the top floor.
Sai PreetiSeptember 5, 2013Book early so that you get access to the viewing gallery, it's totally worth it! If not, you pay £45/hour for a table on level 33!
DKDecember 30, 2014Private place recently opened for public visits. Legendary cocktail bar and restaurant with panoramic view over the central London
Robin HowieDecember 3, 2012Paramount is a swanky cocktail bar at the top of Centre Point, virtually the only tall building in central London, fantastic views, expensive drinks but worth it.
Great food, outstanding cocktails and possibly the best high level view of Central London. Don't forget to visit the observation level to take in a 360 degree view of London
LondonistMarch 28, 2014A truly stunning view from the viewing gallery. Go up for a glass of wine on a quiet sunny afternoon and enjoy.
ChristianNovember 4, 2013Great place... fantastic views and friendly staff.. Note to self, please go straight to the viewing deck area as they also have a bar ;-)

The TelegraphDecember 24, 2012Have a celebration drink at Paramount(103 New Oxford Street, WC1; 020 7420 2900; paramount.uk.net), which has 360-degree views of the West End and beyond. Booking is essential, dress smart-casual.
Jan W.December 23, 2014WOW. The Paramount has an amazing view over London. The food is excellent too! I am totally in love with the 70s style.
Richard GregoryDecember 6, 2010Recommended: Paramount's custom made copper bar offers those who decide to recline in its west facing lounge a unique setting in which to enjoy sunset views and premium drinks. It's truly unique! Read more
Louis VuittonSeptember 23, 2010Located on top of city landmark Centre Point Tower lies renowned interior designer Tom Dixon’s latest creation. True to its name, this top floor bar provides spectacular views across the city.
Anna PeskovaSeptember 6, 2013the brilliant place! the views are amazing. service, food, drinks -awesome!
The view really is legendary, with a wrap around bar on the 32nd floor of Centre Point. Cozy & a great place to impress a date.
Ajay SApril 25, 2012Yes fantastic views, great service, lovely food and awesome drinks but venue looks a little dated and tired. If it had a facelift would be perfect.
Daniel KMarch 19, 2013Go in the evening and have a drink upstairs in the cocktail bar; oh and book a table first to get the best view

Tj SmartSeptember 26, 2013Amazing views of London. .. be nice to the lady downstairs, otherwise she'll nit let u up! Yes, she has to hit the elevator button!
Amy RobinsonAugust 10, 2014Sit on the city side for the best view of London. The Malbec was decent but I wouldn't stay for more than one. It's a little gimmicky.

Eleni M★MOctober 6, 2013Amazing views, amazing views, many cocktails, but expensive..... But the views are worth it!
Morgans Hotel GroupAugust 8, 2012Hidden high above the city, the views across LDN are worth it alone. Modern British restaurant and members bar.
Christopher HoggOctober 19, 2012Very cool bar, worth popping in for a quick drink. The view of London at sunset is hard to beat.
Lorraine RApril 7, 2013This place is all about the view which is great. I had a steak and would say it was average/disappointing, expected a higher standard. Would go for drinks again but not eat here unfortunately.
Önder BingölAugust 16, 2014Spectacular view of London with a good selection of single malt whiskies.
