Beach Blanket Babylon

One Cool Snazzy Restaurant

Beach Blanket Babylon is one cool, snazzy place. The sort of place that makes you feel like you had to be on the guest list to get in. The kind of place that fills up fast and looks unbelievably epic from every angle. Every bit of it is expertly curated to create an ambiance that feels just downright sexy.

“The restaurant boasts a very sexy interior with chandeliers, fireplaces and furniture that would make Marie Antoinette go red with envy.”
– Yelp Reviewer, Daria G.

I only went for a reunion with my old university friends, and so we didn’t eat dinner, but did have drinks – which are downright delicious in every sense of the word. The décor, though, wow. Just know it’s absolutely forgiven (by me, at least) if you spend the entire evening just ogling the perfectly romantic setting. It’s foreign enough to transport you into another time, but with the candles and antique accents, trust me when I say you’ll feel absolutely cosy wherever you’re sat.

“Beach Blanket Babylon is more than a bar or restaurant. It’s a lifestyle, a club for the discerning that doesn’t require a membership.” – from the BBB brochure

Exploring wasn’t possible for me when I went – there were so many people it was best to just sit at the couch where I was, and perhaps stare longingly at the beautiful stairwell and turret room just to my left – but if there is space,

I highly suggest it. I would go back to simply sit there again, and it has left a greater impression in my memory than most other places. Drinks are drinks, and though tasty, they don’t hold a candle to the splendour of the venue. Don’t believe me? Look up their website, they have images from both of their branches (completely done up and empty too, so you can see all its magic).
