Skylight bar to open in Peckham

Following on from Skylight Tobacco Dock in London, Skylight will be opening its second venue on top of the Mountview Academy in Peckham this August.

Occupying the top floor of Mountview Academy of Theatre Arts, and with an overall capacity of 250, Skylight Peckham will feature an outdoor terrace, offering cocktails, brunch and views across London. 

The venue’s design uses planting, pastel colours, a zinc-topped bar, and natural marble across both the inside restaurant, bar and the large wraparound terrace. 

"We are delighted to have found the perfect venue in a hugely exciting area of London for what is the next chapter in Skylight’s story," says Patrick Donovan, managing director of Meanwhile Events Ltd. and Tobacco Dock Ltd. "Our mission has always been to create exciting and imaginative spaces that deliver amazing experiences, and this is the natural next step; a beautifully designed bar and terrace with unrivalled views and a unique food and drink offering for locals and Londoners who are fast making Peckham their ultimate leisure destination.”

The new venue was acquired through business property adviser Christie & Co.
