If I ever came back this way, I would definitely stop in again!

First day in London in more than 20 years and we were excited to introduce our girls to Harrods!…read more As we had not eaten and wanted a little treat to celebrate this graduation trip for our girls we decided to start at the Moet and Chandon Champagne bar located near the beauty section. We began with glasses of Moet and Chandon 2016 Grand Vintage which was exceptional while our girls enjoyed cocktails! Then we ordered some light bites : the cheese ans charcuterie plates that were very generous for the price ( 21 GBP for three selections) and the truffle Brie was delicious!! It was served along side seeded crackers . We also enjoyed the bread plate and the caviar selection! It was the perfect amount of food and I rounded it out with a glass o my Moet Rose! A great start to our London trip

My drink of choice is champagne. Like me it's fun and bubbly. We're a vibe. Together we make a…read moreperfect pair. I was in London at the end of January. I've discovered I like Europe this time of year no lines and no waiting. Hence, I walked in and found a seat at the bar no reservation. I was fortunate to meet a pretty blonde dripping in Chanel (it's Harrods). We kept each other company while sipping champagne and nibbling on small bites. Their small bites are very nice. I highly recommend drinking champagne at Harrods. It's the least expensive thing you can buy:).

Service was polite but quite pushy, which is not surprising for the bougie (North American slang…read morefor bourgeois, maybe even a bit snobby) nature of the place. I came in with three others at around 9pm, and the place was pretty empty, even despite its small size. There was a pair sitting at the bar, as well as another group seated at a table. The bartender told us the place would close at 11pm, but there was another guy (probably a manager) buzzing around who seemed extremely antsy to get people out. He closed the door around 10pm, whisked around trying to rush the clean-up process, and kept whispering things to the bartender. He killed the atmosphere of the place. Trying to get people to leave in order to save money is only going to get you poor recommendations and results in the long-run.

It is very expensive. But as long as you know that and expect it...the view and the experience…read morecan't be beat! All the signature cocktails are 26 GBP. I couldn't find a single thing online giving me any idea on the prices of food or drinks here, so I am letting you know. The presentation of said drinks is superb, and they taste great! There is also a selection of beer and wine and other spirits to choose from. They also have a per-person minimum (at least that is what was indicated on the reservation site and email) that basically requires getting 2 drinks or also ordering overpriced food. BUT all that said...you KNOW it is going to be expensive. You can still be budget conscious here, if you know what you are going in to. And what you are really here for is the view, and you GET IT. You may not get a window seat, but if you are nice and patient, if one opens up they may be able to move you over there. But you will still be able to get close to the windows for views and photos no matter where you are seated. It seems to be a requirement that all servers be non-native English speakers who are unusually attractive and must wear pants so tight you wonder how they are able to walk in them. I'm not complaining though! It was the smallest and most expensive restaurant experience of our London trip. But it was also one of the most memorable and most fun. I would absolutely recommend a visit, especially around sunset.

The downside was the sandwiches had the thinnest layer of spread whether it was the salmon or cucumber sandwich-- all of them had super thin layers which isn't what I'm accustomed too at other afternoo tea establishments such as The Peninsula Hotel in Beverly Hills. It was mostly all bread here. The scones and tea at the Gherkin were great. The desserts were delicious but also very tiny too in comparison to other places. You're better of going to the Ritz for a better quality overall experience.

This bar is downstairs in the Crowne Plaza…read more I came here for afternoon tea while I was in town with a Virgin Experiences voucher. Yeah I also thought it was a bit strange that a bar was serving afternoon tea. Keeping in mind that I had afternoon tea that week 4 times, this was just an ok set. Sandwiches were decent, sweets were ok. Teas were excellent. Great service, of course. The furniture was nice but a bit uncomfortable to sit at for tea. It seemed more appropriate for a hookah lounge. The one thing that really sticks out in my mind was there were these random flies that occasionally would buzz around. Where exactly were they even coming from?

This was unexpected. Pop music, caged private booths (yes, I said caged - as the private rooms are…read moreliterally couches / chairs with fancy little pillows and blankets in a fucking cage), solid booze selection. Ended up here accidentally while looking for a place open late - open until at least 2am. The drinks were a bit on the pricey side but the beers were around 5 pounds - not the end of the world. The bar inside is classy and has a good amount of seating. Gorgeous bathrooms as well (I believe the bar is attached to a hotel). But outside, there's a path along which there are many private rooms that appear to be for bottle service. The bartender told us they are typically for those spending 30+ pounds but it was pretty dead late night on Thursday, so we snagged a "cage." I felt like I was sitting in Pier 1 - surrounded by animal print, hardwood, and cast iron. Really cool place to check out if you're in the area, but I probably wouldn't recommend it over the weekend as it sounds like things can get rather pricey and crowded.
