Coppa club
My first ever experience inside a winter pod was at Coppa Club. This stunning tower bridge location includes heating and music. Our pod was a shared brunch experience, but if your group is large enough you'll get to enjoy a pod all to yourselves.
Skuna
New for winter 2024 is London's first and only floating igloo. From Skuna - the company behind BBQ boats, the hot tub boats and hot tub cinema!
I was invited to experience the igloo boats one evening in November and it was such a dreamy experience. Nestled inside a comfy, gently lit dome, we drifted along the West India quay river in Canary Wharf - south east London.
The views are great from here and the floating igloos look so pretty. Decorated with snow covered twigs and twinkling lights. You and your guests will enjoy a 90 minute tour with a Skuna expert.
Choose either a delicious chocolate fondue or savoury raclette option. Complete with blankets, Bluetooth speakers and some tipples!
London secret garden
This beautiful location in South Kensington allows you to dine privately on their lawn under domes. You'll have the option to enjoy afternoon tea or dinner, with mouthwatering Pan-Asian cuisine dinner menus.
Plus a festive afternoon tea option for winter. All 5 domes can accommodate a whopping ten guests in a private, air conditioned pod. Spaced out across a one acre garden.
After your two hour booking you can continue the fun under a heated marquee at the adjoining Kens bar.
Wagtail
At the alpine inspired igloos you can enjoy signature grey goose espresso martinis along with other expertly prepared cocktails and a two course meal. Pods are warm and cosy and offer panoramic views of the city.
Mmy wood wharf
Otherwise known as Mercato metropolitano - wood wharf branch. One of four private igloos can be booked for a group of up to four guests per pod, with a two hour stay.
Mmy wood wharf winter pods have a variety of menu options. With lunch and dinner. Plus a middle Eastern brunch menu over the weekends. From the 12th to the 18th of February guests can enjoy a special valentine's day menu overlooking the river Thames.
Circe's cloud 9 pods
Party in a cloud 9 pod on circes rooftop in Waterloo. Each pod comfortably sits 9 people for lunch or dinner with drinks.
The sipping room
We're back at west India quay - this time on dry land for the sipping rooms glass heated igloos. Overlooking the docks, you might even spot the Skuna igloos bobbing along!
The private pods at the sipping room seat up to eight, with a minimum booking size of six. You'll all enjoy a Christmas set menu - to include a festive three course meal with Xmas themed cocktails.
