Southwest London’s go-to rooftop bar reopens on 26 March with skyline views, bottomless brunch, industry nights and a full summer events programme.
Kingston’s riverside hospitality scene is set for a vibrant new chapter as Sonnys Rooftop Bar reopens on 26 March, bringing Riviera-inspired energy, panoramic River Thames views and DJ-led sunset sessions back to the heart of Kingston upon Thames.
Positioned in one of southwest London’s most scenic riverside locations, Sonny’s has established itself as a leading rooftop bar in Kingston – a place where visitors gather from daytime drinks through to late-night socialising and entertainment. Fully covered and heated, the rooftop offers sweeping views across the River Thames, blending relaxed community spirit with elevated food and cocktails in a setting that feels both welcoming and aspirational.
Owner Sam Berry commented: “We’re super excited to be reopening the rooftop and bringing the vibes back to Kingston’s riverside. We can’t wait to welcome everyone back on 26 March for sundowners, DJs and the best view in Kingston.”
Food, Cocktails & Community
At the heart of Sonnys offering is a menu created in partnership with respected local bar and restaurateur Sam Berry, alongside co-founder Sat Ghuman. Expect sharing-style pizzas, Mediterranean-style plates, dips and weekend brunch, alongside a cocktail list designed for golden hour featuring spritzes, signature cocktails, frozen drinks, mocktails and cold beers served against a riverside backdrop.
The result is a rooftop bar in Kingston that feels equally suited to after-work drinks, birthday celebrations, weekend brunches or spontaneous summer nights overlooking the Thames.
