The Pub Pod has a fully functional bar, dartboard, wooden barrel décor and a dark green accent, creating an intimate experience for visitors. The drinks on offer are the two of the brand’s most popular – a classic Jameson ‘signature serve’ Ginger and Lime, and the Jameson Orange Highball that carries a hint of zesty orange. You can also choose from a selection of beers and wines in London’s rotating pub.

A classic London Eye experience on one of its 32 pods is the simplest way to witness the charm of the city. The transparent glass of the pods and their architectural style allows visitors to have a perfect 360-degree view of everything that surrounds them. As the wheel does a 360-degree rotation, prepare to be awed by stunning views of the Thames running through London, the Buckingham Palace, the Westminster Abbey, and the Big Ben. Spot the Tower of London, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and everything else that lies within a 40-kilometre radius of the Eye, probably even the Windsor Castle.

4D Cinema Experience

The London Eye 4D Cinema Experience is among the popular experiences in London Eye. When you purchase the tickets and wait in line, a short film on the creation of the London Eye keeps you engaged. Around 160 visitors enter the Hall every 8 minutes to immerse in an affair that adds a touch of wonder to the London Eye experience. Visitors need to stand on the four levels of the hall to watch the 4-minute short film. The story follows a girl’s imagination of exploring London from a bird’s eye view. What follows is not simply watching a 3D film, but sensing all that you see on screen. It snows in the hall when it snows on screen, it rains on screen and it touches you too, and you can feel the wind in your hair as you ‘fly’ through London.
