THE DOME
HEAD to The Dome if you want glam, glitz and fancy pretending you’re a celebrity for a while.
The building is gorgeous. It’s an old bank headquarters and it has been totally refurbished without losing any character.
The centrepiece is the beautiful dome-shaped ceiling which you’ll find yourself gazing at.
There are several choices for eating. Afternoon tea in The Georgian Tearoom is special indeed and a luxury experience.
If you fancy a more lively atmosphere, head to The Grill Room. There’s a three-course menu for £20, but with my crowd if we’re enjoying a drink or three, we like the snack menu.
Think sandwiches, bowls of chips, sharing platters and even good old toast. Sometimes you just fancy more snacky food, rather than a full-on meal, and The Dome does it especially well.
Oh, and if you like cocktails, it would be a crime to miss them here. We can’t decide whether to recommend the apple crumble or the French martini. Tell you what – we’ll have both!
