Eating at the Coppa Club with no reservation

The Coppa Club igloos are incredibly popular and often booked up well in advance. If you have missed out on booking for the day you require, there is a chance you can still grab an igloo.  Our advice is to go just before opening time and during the week if possible. The Coppa Club keeps one igloo free for walk-ins.

Are the Coppa Club igloos heated?

If you are visiting London in the winter, you will be pleased to know that the igloos at the Coppa Club are heated. They are surprisingly cosy even on the coldest winter days. That said, when the servers come in and out with your order, you will get a blast of cold air. You will also need to pop into the main restaurant if you need to go to the toilet so it is wise to wrap up warm with layers.

Which Coppa Club has the igloos?

The Coppa Club Tower Bridge may be the most well-known of all of the Coppa Clubs but it was not the first. The first Coppa Club was opened in 2015 in Sonning-on-Thames. They also have igloos if you do not want to come into central London. See here for details of the the Coppa Club Sonning.
