A place worth knowing

Let the river open up the evening. Lyaness sits on the ground floor of Sea Containers London, pairing a view across the Thames with drinks built around unusual ingredients. There are alcohol-free choices worth giving the same attention.

Reserve through the bar’s own booking page; walk-ins depend on space. This is Lyaness, not the hotel’s rooftop bar. After 17:00 the venue generally welcomes adults aged 18 and over, with a separate policy for accompanied hotel guests aged 16–17. The hotel’s dining page supplies the closing hours below.

The night photograph shows Sea Containers House in March 2016, before the Lyaness name was introduced.
