"All pubs are unique in their own way. Sometimes it’s a unique take on a Bloody Mary, sometimes it’s a unique menu of Thai treats, and sometimes it’s a particularly unique smell coming from the men’s bathroom. But in the case of The Culpeper, it’s their rooftop garden where they grow their own fresh produce. In the middle of the City, it’s a jaw-dropper of a space that mixes cute foliage with stunning views of London’s most famous skyscrapers. Think of the overall aesthetic as business and pleasure. On the menu you’ll find high-end British dishes with a Mediterranean touch, like pork neck steak with salsa verde, and a samphire-soaked fish of the day. There’s a solid wine list too, or if you’re more of a pub classicist, plenty of draught pints." - Heidi Lauth Beasley
