DESIGN
A modern classic
Vesper Bar showcases strikingly beautiful, contemporary design from London’s interiors specialist, Martin Brudnizki. Inspired by the spirit and sophistication of the roaring thirties, the bar's playful, eye-catching atmosphere is simply a delight.
INSPIRATION
All in the name
The Vesper Martini first starred in the James Bond novel, Casino Royale, differing from Bond’s usual martini in that it uses both gin and vodka instead of dry vermouth, and lemon peel instead of an olive.
DINE
Perfect pairings
When it comes to dining, further delights adorn our carefully curated menu. Think elegantly dressed rock oysters, crispy lobster tempura and tempting truffle pizzette.
EXCLUSIVE HIRE
Remarkable gatherings
Vesper Bar's upper area is a perfect spot for exclusive gatherings and private celebrations. Seating up to 30, it's infused with all the vibrancy and glamour of our elegant bar – yet naturally set apart due to its slight elevation.
