I've only just come across this thread so if I'm going over old ground, sorry! Reopen the  PO Tower ?.... Not unless you want to eat around the several tons of telecoms equipment they've stuck in it since they closed it, suffer indigestion from the constant interuption of your meal by bomb threats and fire alarms, and pay through the nose for only so so food because even when it was running, costs were so high they never made a profit ! Sad to say it's a bit of a none starter.....shame. The higest restaurant in London would be on top of the hill at Hampstead, but assuming you mean central  then you could try the one on the top floor of the St George's Hotel in Langham Place (next door to All Souls Church), called The Heights. Better then average, though not stunning food at a slightly pricy £30 average dinner. Same view for less dosh at the next door bar with cheaper nibbles. J.lamplugh.
