The Asian inspired cuisine Buddha bar places itself in the heart of Knightsbridge, London. The winner of London Club and Bar awards 2017 for ‘Outstanding achievement’ aims to push its culinary abilities blending Far Eastern Cuisine with Western tastes and influences. This is also captured in their cocktail menu which consists of unique and experimental cocktails consisting of rare ingredients making them unique to any other bar.
When you first enter you’re welcomed by the two bedazzling dragon statues made of Swarovski crystal balls either side of a dim-lit staircase. The darkness immediately adds a seductive feel even before you've entered the restaurant and the best is yet to come. At the bottom of the stairs sets a David Begbie designed bone mesh sculpture of a Buddha. The interior inspires East meets West style and with 207 brass Buddha figures, Baroque architecture and intimate lighting it sets the ideal atmosphere for its clientèle. You are able to have the choice to be seated in the dining area where you can sit and stare in awe at the breath-taking decor and floating Buddha watching over you or a private booth to cater to your needs creating the perfect evening.
