Any questions? Please check our FAQs when possible. You can get in touch by clicking our widget on the right and we’ll get back to you as soon as we can. We do not manage late arrivals via phone or email, we’ll simply see you when you get here!
Guests are able to amend their existing bookings via their confirmation email/text. If you cannot do this, it will be because we do not have the capacity to make any changes.
We operate a Challenge 25 policy on the rooftop, so if you’re lucky enough to look under 25 years old, you will be asked to show your ID. Acceptable forms of ID to prove you are over 18 include a photo driving licence, a passport, a proof of age card, such as the PASS card from the national Proof of Age Standards Scheme.
Children under 18 years of age are welcome on the rooftop before 5pm. Please note that high chairs are not available.

Dogs are always welcome at Bussey #Wooftop Bar (see what we did there?)! We kindly ask that you ensure your pooch remains on a lead at all times and does not disrupt other guests.
Monday – Friday: 5pm – 11pm
Saturday – Sunday: 12pm – 11pm
Unfortunately, we do not have screens in our bar, and so we will not be showing any matches.
Your card details will be required to complete your booking but you will not be charged — however, if you don’t show up, are more than 30 minutes late, or cancel your booking with less than 24 hours’ notice, you will be charged a non-refundable fee of £5 per person. Cancellations must be made at least 24 hours prior to your booking time.
If you’re late, you don’t need to call ahead, your table will be held for as long as possible and we’ll see you when you get here!
If you need the lift to go straight to the top, please let a member of staff know and we will assist you, otherwise, you can get out on the floor just below and head up the short final flight.
There are bike hoops covered by security cameras downstairs. Alternatively, Cycle Hub offers secure and covered parking, and locks at midnight (so your bike is safe overnight). You’ll find it next to Peckham Rye Station.
At Bussey Rooftop Bar your safety will continue to be our number 1 priority.
Here’s a rundown of safety changes post 19th July 2021.
Bussey Rooftop Bar is a (covered) OUTDOOR venue.
Whilst masks won’t be mandatory on the roof, our staff will continue to do so and we advise customers to do so when moving around the venue.
For now, food and drink ordering will remain on the app.
Spontaneity is BACK, baby & we are back accepting walk ins at the venue – however make sure you arrive early on Friday evenings and weekend to secure a spot. Should you wish to secure a table, you can still do so by booking online
Hand sanitiser will still be widely available.
– All tables, chairs and high-contact areas will be regularly sanitised .
– We are closely following government advice and will adapt the rooftop to ensure we are following official guidelines at all times.
Those are just some of the measures we’re taking to make the rooftop safe. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to get in touch via the widget at the bottom right.
It’s wonderful that you’d like to join us!
As our largest table fits 10, we are only able to accept bookings for 10 people at once online.
Please get in touch if you are a group larger than 10 and we will do our best to accommodate you.
We do not take deposits nor do we have a minimum spend requirement.
Please note that in order to manage congestion on the stairwell and at the check-in point, your whole group must be present on the ground floor before being permitted up to the rooftop.
If you booked a high-top table, you’re in luck — you’ll have cover from the elements so you can carry on having fun! We do not cancel reservations in the event of rain unless in the event of dangerous weather.
Yes – come on down! We accept walk-ins. To secure a table, we recommend making a reservation — bookings are free and you’ll be asked for card details at checkout but you won’t be charged unless you cancel with less than 24 hours’ notice, don’t show up for your booking, or are late by more than 30 minutes, in which case you will be charged £5 per person.
