Party Earth Review: Nestled on a cozy tree-lined street, Beach Blanket Babylon is a quintessential Notting Hill retreat perfect for enchanting evenings in lush surroundings. Passing the pristine patio tables and white awnings outside, patrons step into a veritable Rococo wonderland of baroque candelabrum, gold statues, vases with towering floral arrangements, and a bar piled with lavish bowls of fruit. The equally golden and gorgeous clientele of media and business professionals, designers, and other artistic souls crowd around the bar to wait for their handcrafted cocktails. The space offers plenty of variety to meet anyone’s mood, from the intimate tables given over to cozy conversations and the comfy seating by the opulent fireplace, to the more exuberant bar area where mingling is the order of the day. With just the right mix of rock chic, boho luxe, and romantic whimsy, Beach Blanket Babylon guarantees a fashionable night on the town. ... read full review |
