THE IVY COLLECTION – SOPHISTICATED DINING EXPERIENCE MADE SIMPLE

THE IVY COLLECTION – SOPHISTICATED DINING EXPERIENCE MADE SIMPLE

A haven of style and unfaltering service. I absolutely love the Ivy collection of restaurants, brasseries and bars. Ambiance aside, the food and cocktails are absolutely delicious, and if you’re looking for beautiful deco, well… that’s definitely the place to check out!

The Ivy Collection’s menus feature modern British dishes, many of which are inspired from the original Ivy on West Street, established in 1917 in the heart of the West End.

Food aside, I think the reason why I love the Ivy so much is the cool vibe and decor. Something about this place comes across as warm, inviting, relaxed yet entirely sophisticated!
