A champagne-and-cocktail bar on the 42nd floor of Tower 42 (once the NatWest Tower), circling glass walls giving one of the City's best skyline views without the crowds or queues of the newer sky-bars — security screening and a booking are the price of the quiet. It is where the City itself goes to look down on the City, glass of champagne in hand, well above the noise.
