A Willy Wonka-inspired takeover that sees the hotel transformed into everyone’s favourite chocolate factory.

The famed Long Bar will be adorned with overflowing vintage jars and psychedelic swirls, whilst the floral ceiling feature is decked out with giant candy canes, golden tickets and colourful ribbons - celebrating the bizarre and wonderful depths of Roald Dahl’s imagination. 

Wonka-style factory gates lead out to the Courtyard Garden and be welcomed into the bar by a pair of giant lips with real bubblegum balls and a faint, sweet aroma of bubblegum. There's also a themed cocktail menu. Open from 27 November to 4 January.  

Ideal For

Pure imagination

Signature Drinks

The Wonka’s Martini, a mix of Grey Goose vodka, Eager apple juice, green apple and lemon; Glop Glop, a concoction of Mozart dry chocolate vodka, Briottet orange liqueur and Lillet Blanc vermouth; and The Blue Meadow Star, mixing Star of Bombay gin, orange, and Fever-Tree Elderflower tonic.

Highlights

Discover the edible, rainbow tower in the lobby - over two metres high and constructed from stacked vintage sweet jars stuffed with colourful candies, lit by glowing fairy lights and topped with a giant rainbow lollipop.
