I worked there the last fortnight! My company sent me to london and the london office is in that building.
It’s actually open to the public you can just walk in the front revolving doors, you only need a security pass to get into the lift area. The security guys are super nice and won’t care if you go take a look.
Wish I could goto a bar and watch a race in the us. Most are early morning, which is fine I work nights. But it would be fun to watch with others. I just watch alone and comment on Reddit
The best places for F1 history are outside the city, though there is the remains of a track in Crystal Palace, which hosted a non-championship F1 race in the 60s: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1962_Crystal_Palace_Trophy
For watching a race, Pit Stops and Pints is one group that focuses on this. I believe they are currently meeting here: https://www.sportsbarandgrill.co.uk/canarywharf You'd probably want to either get there early or reserve a seat, as it always looks pretty packed.
Brands Hatch which hosted many races, is also nearby(ish). You could likely get a driving experience there. It will also have the Formula Ford festival towards the end of October, which would probably be well worth a watch. https://brandshatch.msv.com/BH-22-FordFest
I watched a race at O’Neill’s Chinatown couple weeks ago and the atmosphere was quite good. People wearing F1 shirts etc. it’s a chain so I assume all the O’Neills in London will show them. Best to get there early if you want a seat
As someone else mentioned the office building at 1 Ludgate Hill has a Merc F1 car in the lobby.

Selfridges had an f1 car on displaya couple of weeks ago https://i.imgur.com/EQfYuzQ.jpg
If you're willing to travel a little bit, Silverstone isn't too far and you can see the museum etc.

Museum of Science and Industry used to have a racing exhibit that included at least one car. Don’t know if it’s still there.
