Vertigo 42, 03/10/06

For our two year anniversary we decided to visit the land of the posh business man. We dared to live it up in the Liverpool St business district at none other than the old Natwest tower, Vertigo 42. I had read about the bar about a year ago in one of Terry's books (relating to random watering holes in London) and had never got round to checking it out.



The bar itself consisted of small little booths seating approximately two people, each looking out on the London skyline. Champagne and cocktails were on offer with a basic food menu, but as we had a big lunch, we ordered a chocolate brownie and lychee cocktails. The view was spectacular and the setting very romantic. I would certainly go back again, but with a bit more cash, as I would like to try some more of the luscious cocktails. I would also ask to book for a booth by the more famous landmarks of London, such as the views looking out at St Pauls Cathedral and the London Eye. Because the capacity is roughly 30 odd people, you have to book in advance, but entrance is ultimately free.
