Royal Victoria Pavilion, Kent
Going big, we have to start with the world’s biggest Wetherspoons; the Royal Victoria Pavilion.
Found in Ramsgate, the pub has an enormous outdoor rooftop terrace that wraps around the entire building, with enough tables and chairs to fit hundreds.
The best views are found at the very back, where the pub backs onto Ramsgate’s sandy beach.
Admiral Collingwood, Devon
This boozer in Ilfracombe is a firm favourite when the sun shines thanks to its beer garden AND rooftop area.
From the rooftop of the pub, which is open between March and October, visitors can see amazing views across the coast.
One recent visitor said: “The view of the sea is amazing; the roof terrace is lovely and the drinks are true spoons quality.”
The Jolie Brise, Teignmouth
In the Devonshire seaside town of Teignmouth, and two-minutes away from the beach is The Jolie Brise.
The Wetherspoons has a pretty rooftop garden where you still get a beachy-feel thanks to its wooden slatted exterior, palm trees and chirp of seagulls overhead.
Velvet Coaster, Blackpool
Consistently called one of the most beautiful Wetherspoons, the Velvet Coaster sits next to Blackpool’s South Pier and is within walking distance from its Pleasure Beach.
Punters can enjoy the impressive views across the promenade from the comfort of a bucket chair on its rooftop garden and sip on a cool beer.
The Packet Station, Falmouth
This Wetherspoons in Falmouth stretches over three floors including its roof terrace which opened in September 2022.
The pretty rooftop sadly isn’t quite close enough to the coast for a sea view, but it still is a great suntrap and sheltered from the strong sea breeze.
The Bluff Inn, Cornwall
This Wetherspoons is unlike the others as it’s now run by Haven.
The pub sits above Bluff Beach, next to the mouth of the Hayle Estuary, where the river flows into St Ives Bay.
The garden area has lots of picnic tables and beautiful views across the water.
One visitor wrote on Tripadvisor: “Absolutely amazing views of St Ives Bay and will be amazing in the summer with their large beer garden overlooking the sea. As a local will definitely returning many times.”
