Sycamore Vino Cucina
Sycamore Vino Cucina offers an atmosphere that reflects the lively neighbourhood that surrounds the space and brings authentic Italian-inspired dishes to its neighbours. Inspired by the head chef’s links to northern Italy, SVC offers an array of pit-grilled meats, artisan breads, and delicate cuts of meat cured the old-fashioned way. Mafalde with beef shin ragu is a must-try dish on the menu. If you are just passing by the bar, try ‘The Artist King’ from the extensive cocktail list.
QT
Built upon the foundations of the iconic music venue Kingsway Hall, QT is perfectly placed for a unique entertainment experience in the capital. The late-night, modern take on a classic speakeasy bar is hidden away in the basement and has its own street-side private entrance. Behind the bar, you’ll find a handpicked selection of beers, wines, and ales, as well as a cocktail menu from expert mixologist Maurice.
Wellness
With the latest Technogym equipment and specialised personal training, the Middle Eight gym is a space where you can get the ultimate workout and keep your wellness a priority while you stay.
