What we'll be doing this summer

WATCH

A Midsummer Night’s Dream at Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre

‘I know a bank where the wild thyme blows, Where oxlips and the nodding violet grows’...

Delight in one of Shakespeare’s sillier offerings out in the open air on a midsummer night amid the beautiful surrounds of Regent’s Park. Be transported from the city centre into an ancient faerie land full of love and mischief - on until 27th July. In August, catch Phoebe Waller-Bridge’s groundbreaking ‘Fleabag’, a television series single-handedly responsible for spiking M&S ‘gin in a tin’ sales by 24% after the drinks’ feature in one famed episode. Catch it in its original format as a one-woman theatre show at Wyndam’s Theatre until 14th September.

EAT

Two or three-course pre-theatre dinner in the West End at our handily located sky dining room B&H Garden Room- I’d advise leaving room for our earl grey creme brûlée.

DRINK

Campari cocktails at Ferragosto on Thursday 15th August.

STAY UP LATE FOR

Back at our Clerkenwell townhouse throughout July and August, join the family for after work eating and drinking until late, finishing with dancing in Below & Hidden our secret underground club. You’re all warmly welcomed for an evening of fantastic live music, an array of signature and special summer edition cocktails or just a great post-work pint.

BUY

The largest, floppiest sunhat you can possibly find as a good omen for some continued sunshine.

TRY

Garden Room’s citrussy ‘Middle Earth’ cocktail, topped with a fabulous basil-infused foam is definitely one to try if, like me, you think basil belongs in anything and everything.

PLAN

Your costume for sell-out Dark Circus Party: Halloween Special on 2nd November- this year with a Day of the Dead twist. It might be only summer, but poor effort last minute costumes have no place at the Dark Circus so best to get a move on. Tickets available here
