Step into The Coral Room, a glamorous Bloomsbury bar bursting with Wes Anderson charm, where sophisticated cocktails and delectable afternoon teas steal the show.
"The Coral Room’s sole purpose is for looking fabulous while drinking fabulous things with fabulous people in a truly fabulous setting. Also, importantly, in case you were wondering whether this bar’s success simply hinges on 200 litres of coral paint, it doesn’t. They are experts with the classics. The bartenders at this spot inside The Bloomsbury Hotel on Great Russell Street will make you absolutely anything you ask for with confidence and finesse. Although it’ll set you back at least £16 per cocktail, it’s entirely worth it for a drink that feels less like a beverage and more like a totally unforgettable experience." - heidi lauth beasley, jake missing, daisy meager
"From £48 per person This Bloomsbury tea room turns into a cocktail bar at night. But during the day, it’s a prim and proper artwork-filled room where people bring their parents when they’re feeling generous. Afternoon tea involves things like little egg mayonnaise brioche buns, lemon and basil drizzle cakes we wish we could supersize, and faultless service. You can order as many refills of tea as you’d like, and if you request it ahead of time, they can cater to any dietary requirements. At The Coral Room, you still get high-end service, just in a more casual and relaxed setting." - rianne shlebak, eileen twum

"Stop scrolling through Groupon because whatever 20% off deal you find there, the afternoon tea at The Coral Room, a high-ceilinged, artwork-filled room in a Bloomsbury hotel, is better. It’s not cheap, but it’s incredible value for the £55 you spend per person. It involves little egg mayonnaise brioche buns, a pistachio opera cake, and faultless service. You can order as many refills of tea as you’d like, and if you request it ahead of time, they can cater to any dietary requirements. It’s perfect for special occasions and pretty much any time that your priority is good lighting. " - rianne shlebak, jake missing, sinead cranna
"The Coral Room will make you feel fabulous. Think a cosmopolitan wunderkind with a deep understanding of why hyaluronic acid is good for your skin and drinking two bottles of cava isn’t. Inside The Bloomsbury Hotel in Bloomsbury, this place is an absolute no-brainer for a round of sophisticated or celebratory drinks, including go-to booze-free spirits from AEcorn and Seedlip.
