Party Earth Review: For those who can afford to drop £900 on an Alexander McQueen clutch or a Vivienne Westwood frock, the opulent Fifth Floor Bar at upscale department store Harvey Nichols offers a chance to toast their pricey purchases with equally extravagant champagne. Arriving via an express lift designed exclusively for the bar’s clientele, ladies who lunch and weary shoppers find themselves in a space with a floral motif modeled after the renowned Perrier-Jouët Belle Epoque champagne bottle. Open and airy with hardwood floors, a circular ivory-colored bar, white banquettes, and just enough fuchsia and lime touches to avoid that uncomfortable sanatorium feel, the venue creates a comfortable vibe where privileged customers can relax in style over everything from soft drinks to tequila. Ordering by the glass or the bottle, or choosing from a champagne cocktail list that includes drinks like The Fifth Element Mojito and Champagne Christophe, affluent A-listers and trendsetters settle into the upholstered booths to take in the city views. Although the bar offers a large selection of original and seasonal cocktails, most of the business people and chic big spenders who frequent this swanky haunt appreciate a good bubbly, and champagne remains the firmly established star of the Harvey Nichols show. Elegant and cozy, Fifth Floor Bar is a jet set drinking destination that oozes glitz and glamour – even if you can’t part with £40,000 for the nine liter bottle of ’99 Belle Epoque. ... read full review |

“It’s nice to have the use of an exclusive lift, but keep in mind that Harvey Nichols is renowned for its innovative, highly styled shop displays. Consider checking them out by taking the escalators all the way up to the bar.”
