Dalloway Terrace

The weather in the UK can be temperamental, even during the summer months, but don’t despair – head to The Bloomsbury’s floral-filled Dalloway Terrace for a taste of Sri Lanka in the heart of London’s West End. The restaurant walls are lined with palms and vibrant orchids, and if the temperature rises, the roof of the terrace can retract to let the sun shine in. Dessert wise, embrace all things tropical. The scrumptious mango and lychee cream, laced with coriander, sweet pepper and lychee sorbet, is a refreshing and fruity take on the classic ice cream dish.
