The ViewLondon Review
A prime meeting point at a prime location in the heart of Knightsbridge, The Fifth Floor Bar is found in one of the most glamorous department stores in London – Harvey Nichols.The VenueThis is the perfect place to come after shopping in Knightsbridge. If you enter the store by the west side and take the lift to the fifth floor, you get the chance to browse in Harvey Nichols food halls on the way to the bar, which has been recently redecorated in turquoise blue and white.
The AtmospherePeople congregate at the horseshoe drinks bar in the centre of the room, and as a result there is much hustle and bustle. Alternatively, you can sit at one end of the room on leather couches next to windows offering great views over Knightsbridge. At the other end of the room is a large digital TV screening fashion shows on the hottest catwalks in the world.
The FoodThe canapes at The Fifth Floor Bar are heavenly. Specialties include grilled scottish scallops with lemon and fennel syrup and the choice of four different caviars – a perfect compliment to the flavoured vodkas.
The DrinkThere is a great selection of cocktails on offer, including the pomegranate martini, which is an absolute winner. The Smash champagne cocktail is divine, made of crushed strawberries, creme de fraise and cointreau. A special mention also goes to the choice of flavoured vodkas.
The Last WordThis bar is an essential haunt for all night owls who take the pleasures of life seriously. It’s a first class bar where everyone feels at home. A girl may not meet prince charming here, but she'll meet some fun people, enjoy the buzz and be made to feel like a princess.
