The London Eye is one of the most iconic landmarks of the U.K. capital, and now it has something even more British and iconic—an in-house pub. One of the pods on the giant observation wheel has been transformed into a pub pod, complete with red velvet seats, darts, a pinball table, ferns, and a selection of gins, craft beers, soft drinks, and more. The pod is available to book only on weekends for a thirty-minute trip up and down the wheel, with 2-5 people allowed per trip. It’s a tad pricey at £55 per person, but after the year we’ve had, sipping gin while sitting in a comfy chair and gazing at Hyde Park may be just what we need.
