The Sky Garden at the top of the building generally called the walkie talkie (20 Fenchurch Street) is open free to the public from about 10am (tickets have to be booked online in advance) without obligation to buy anything.
However you can also go in a lot earlier for breakfast, and it's neither significantly dearer than any fancy coffee shop, or sold out three weeks in advance like the free tickets. I booked a table for Friday morning at 7.45, and had the place practically to myself to watch the sun rise over towards Kent.
..and a little later, in the other direction..
and almost the same view from the 8th Jan, under a far more typical sky for this time of year. I rather like this one. It's old fashioned somehow. Almost black and white.
