WHY WE LOVE THIS BAR...
This is the second outpost from the ever-so-popular Petersham Nurseries who have become somewhat of an institution in Richmond, thanks to their love of plants, seasonal food and drinks, and an overall greenhouse vibe. They’ve brought the same pleasing aesthetic and good taste to Covent Garden - this time with an expansive space that fills a Grade II-listed building and includes a florist, delicatessen, shop, two restaurants and a bar. A gorgeous spot and a welcome respite from the busy streets outside, tucked away inside the restaurant. The bar itself is very in-keeping with the theme, made entirely from a variety of real leaves, individually hand cast in bronze and the stage for their cocktails, which are inspired by nature and the evolving seasons. You can expect a lot of botanicals, herbs and edible flowers in the drinks here and as the restaurant around you has a slight Italian focus, they have some fine wines and aperitivo-style snacks on offer too.
