Opening on the 12 April at The Langham, London will be The Wigmore Summer Terrace & Garden, a beautiful outdoor dining area from the popular British tavern on Regent Street.
The terrace from The Wigmore has been connected with the hotel’s courtyard garden area to form one 75-capacity dining space, ideal for long lunches and leisurely drinks in the summer sunshine.
The space has been transformed into the ultimate city garden, complete with beautiful wooden benches and a newly erected pergola, adorned with climbing vines and fresh greenery. There will be other flowers and foliage from plants and hanging baskets, an outdoor bar area serving refreshing Hendricks G&Ts and cold beers on tap and should the British weather take a turn for the worst – heat lamps and covered areas to escape the rain.
As the new Summer Terrace & Garden will be an extension of The Wigmore, the food offering will include well-loved classics as well some new specials, all overseen by Michel Roux Jr. Guests can tuck into favourites such as the XXL Stovetop three cheese & mustard toastie, and the instantly recognisable, Masala spiced scotch egg with dahl relish, or there are new dishes including a luxurious Buttered lobster roll, served with buttermilk onion rings.
Château La Gordonne Provence Rosé will be served by the glass, bottle, magnum and even a jeroboam. Guests can also choose from the selection of refreshing summer cocktails. For the G&T lovers, there is London Calling – Hendrick’s Gin shaken with fino sherry, lemon juice and orange bitters. Then there is the Rogue Life – Regal Rogue red vermouth & London Essence Jasmine and White Peach.
For hot days, there's an ice-cold Froze, served from a retro slushie machine and created by Bar Manager Anna Sebastian. It's a blend of Reyka vodka, discarded vermouth, Chase rose and fresh strawberries, all blitzed down with ice.
There is also a selection of lower alcohol options available including Shandy Shack Shandies and Served Hard Seltzers.
