Harvey Nichols has just refurbished its ladies-who-lunch venue, the 5th Floor Champagne Bar, which offers a salonlike setting inspired by Émile Gallé's champagne bottle design. Cocktails include the "Wild Flower" (vodka, fresh apples, pomme verte, hibiscus, served with griotte cherry and hibiscus flower) and the "Garden Party" (gin, mint and elderflower combined with apple, green grape and a touch of wasabi and topped up with champagne). Meanwhile, executive chef Jonas Karlsson's menu features upmarket snacks with a Baltic tinge – think lobster cocktail, oysters, caviar, a "Rossini" burger. and raspberry and white chocolate mousse (cocktails are priced between £10.95–15.95; food items are near the £10 mark, except the £180 Sevruga; 020-7235-5250).
