With the bank holiday fast approaching, Sunseeker London release their ideas of where to Eat, Drink & Sleep in London this May. Read on to discover more!
Eat: Quaglino’s, 16 Bury Street, London, SW1Y 6AJ
Having undergone a full-scale, multi-million pound renovation at the hands of Russell Sage Studio in 2014, Quaglino’s interiors have been brought right up to date, whilst keeping those signature Art Deco flourishes and that sweeping staircase at the heart of the design.
The menu, designed by Executive Head Chef Mickael Weiss, is a perfect canon of European classics, with a nod towards Middle Eastern spicing, all made using the highest quality British ingredients.
The decadent dishes are available at lunch, dinner and then on into the night… they’ve also got an extensive cocktail list, serving tipples with a taste of the past and vast wine list showcasing a balanced mix of Old and New World beauties.
Q Club – Only available at Quaglinos
Q Club is a small, select and exclusive society for our friends and loyal customers. There is no fee or subscription, with many benefits including priority bookings for the restaurant, 20% off lunch, complimentary Champagne at midnight in the bar and late-night live music as well as special events throughout the year.
Part of the ambition for Q Club is to revisit the past and try to uncover more of the secrets that Evelyn Waugh, Judy Garland, Elvis Presley and even our beloved Queen have shared within the walls of Quaglino’s. Each member has been hand-picked and headhunted to join us in the search party for the original spirit of the restaurant.
Quaglino’s is delighted to offer Sunseeker clients 20% off food this summer. Booking is essential and guests must book through Hannah Tyldesley on +44(0) 7525 594 177 or email hannaht@danddlondon.com. Please mention Sunseeker upon your booking. Terms and conditions apply. Offer valid until August 2015.

Drink: Sketch, 9 Conduit Street, London, W1S 2XG
The triple dream of launching a centre – a lieu or destination place – for food, art and music has been realised by Mourad “Momo” Mazouz and his team of chefs and designers over two expansive floors of a converted 18th century building in Conduit Street, Mayfair, London.
Sketch is a complex and unique site. Conceived by French master chef Pierre Gagnaire and restauranteur Mazouz, it has attracted unprecedented media reaction for its myriad of food, drink and entertainment styles since it opened in December 2002.
Gagnaire’s culinary genius has inspired the menus at Sketch. His eponymous Michelin three-starred Paris restaurant has a distinctive menu style, which Gagnaire had adapted for this Mayfair favourite. Executed by his acolytes, the food is imaginative, bold, ground-breaking and delicious.
Guests can enjoy five different venues within Sketch, varying from breakfasts, afternoon tea, gastro dining and evening cocktails. From the magic of The Glade Bar, a stunning enchanted fairy-tale forest design, to the ultra modern East Bar, Sketch caters for a variety of eclectic tastes.

Sleep: The Bingham, 61-63 Petersham Road, Richmond, Surrey TW10 6UT
The Bingham Hotel is a beautifully restored four star Georgian townhouse in the heart of vibrant Richmond-upon-Thames.
A chic retreat for a romantic getaway and a gourmet bolt-hole for gastronomes who can enjoy fresh, seasonal, modern British cuisine.
Today its comfortable contemporary style makes it a special place in which to stay and dine. Each of the 15 bespoke guestrooms is named after the poet’s works.
The luxurious suite, Baudelaire, is particularly sumptuous with a large bay window and handsome four-poster bed. Every detail is carefully considered, creating a ‘home from home’ experience from the retro telephones, king size Hypnos beds, handmade biscuits and orchids found in each bedroom.
The setting in beautiful Richmond-upon-Thames is unbeatable and the view – well! The river is at the end of the hotel’s terrace and walled garden, with an idyllic towpath, rowing boats and pleasure craft.
Alongside this, some of London’s South West London’s top attractions including Hampton Court Palace, Kew Gardens, Syon House, Ham House and Ham Polo Club making it the perfect weekend getaway this May bank holiday.
