Excellent view of the city from the vantage point from the top floor of Waterstones at Piccadilly. Latte was smooth but not generous. Service was too attentive and constantly disruptive of conversation. As it gets busy, a queue builds. In the end for peace of mind, we adjourned to Chinatown to continue over dinner.

NOT SUITABLE FOR SOLO ATTENDEESIf you are attending as an individual you will not get table service. On multiple occasions have had to wait up to 90 minutes before staff (who know you are there because they seated you) will take an order. Very expensive (e.g. soft drink bottle is £5.25).

On the 5th floor of a bookshop, what's not to like. There are couches and chairs throughout the store which were well used by potential clientele. Plenty of room in the bar/cafe when we got there at 1445hrs and we chose to be seated at the windows. Service was prompt, but not everything was on the printed menu, niether the carrot cake nor apple and cinnamon pie were there. Nice atmosphere, quiet, only two kids with maw and paw next to us and they were well behaved. 10% service charged added to the bill, when I asked if there was a tips jar the staff didn't seem to know what I was on about- maybe just my provincial West of Scotland burr.

Not child friendly at all! My sister and I got shoved in a corner at back of the room because we had two prams with us. There was plenty of room on the view side was but the waitress insisted there wasn't and ushered us to the dingy dark side which was absolutely baking hot. The chairs and carpet were filthy also. I really wouldn't recommend, especially if you have children with you.

Myself and my husband visited the 5th View Bar at Waterstones today for afternoon tea . We ordered this amazing deal through Groupon!The whole team at the bar were friendly and courteous ! We would definitely recommend this deal to anyone, We will definitely be back for lunch or even just drinks! A very calm and relaxing atmosphere!Thanks once again team, your hospitality went above and beyond !

Welcoming & friendly service. Great spot to get away from hustle and bustle of the city and unwind with a drink and/or a bite to eat in a tranquil surrounding with beautiful skyline views. Love their fresh mint tea & veggie panini. Wish they had more vegan options on the menu.

We were intrigued by the 2-4-1 sign outside of the Waterstone store and went up to try it out.It’s pretty nice, we tried the passion fruit elderflower Collins, the Kir Royale, the Strawberry summer spritz and the Stormy Mojito. The drinks were good. The service was nice, interiors were cool and not too crowded. And the 2-4-1 makes it very attractive.You will have a nice time.

Booked through Groupon but unable to use due to administrative error in booking, limited warmth from the staff ( we got a free prosecco) who did nothing really to help other than blame Groupon and told me voucher had already been used. ( It certainly hadn't as I've never visited the place before)The food/furniture was nothing like the picture on the website and I really would not pay £35.49 for a latte, diet coke, 4 sandwiches, 2 scones and 3 cakes considering, Ive visited quite a few places recently and they had been warm, clean, welcoming, helpful and no issues with accepting a Groupon voucher

Super fun bar at the top of the bookstore. 2 for 1 cocktails. Brilliant service and great drinks. Not to be missed. A real gem.

Decent food and very nice staff. Was tasty and quick with the order. Very cozy with different spots and genuinely everyone doing their own thing.A great place for a quick bite and to read a book you just bought from Waterstones. One the places I have been going to for years.
