There’s a number of ways to tell when winter has arrived in the capital city. The days start getting shorter, the temperature plummets, and it’s dark when you arrive at the office, and even darker when you leave. But (on a more positive note), the most reliable sign of all is when the charming Dalloway Terrace has its annual winter makeover. And guess what, folks? As our Christmas queen, Mariah, has already announced: it’s tiiime.
Quite easily one of London’s most Instagrammable restaurants; Bloomsbury’s Dalloway Terrace is back, and up to its usual sparkly tricks when it comes to its winter décor. The restaurant’s idyllic terrace has been given a fresh and frosty look for winter – and sipping seasonal cocktails in this wintery wonderland is exactly what we Londoners need to survive the next few months.

This year, they’ve teamed up with Italicus Rosolio di Bergamotto to bring some Italian elegance straight to central London. The enchanting installation aims to capture the nostalgia and excitement of opening your door to discover that it has snowed. Think frosted pinecones, snow-capped foliage, and greenery glistening with winter morning dew. It’s a winter wonderland – but even classier.
Surrounded by festive foliage and twinkling lights, visitors can indulge in expertly-crafted cocktails that seamlessly blend festive flavours with Italian aperitivo culture. The Mandarin Mimosa will add a wintery twist to the classic cocktail and the Peperoncino Margarita will provide some seasonal spice. The warming winter food menu will feature a mushroom and artichoke risotto with winter black truffle and a fresh crab linguine. And sweet-toothed Londoners can tuck in to the delicious likes of an espresso chocolate fondant or a treacle tart.
The cool and crisp wintery decor combined with the warm and welcoming festive atmosphere will provide the perfect backdrop for your festive plans.
