And a new honey bee-themed afternoon tea is available alongside a new seasonal menu.

Newly appointed Head Pastry Chef, Chris Dodd, formerly of Tredwell’s and Café Royal, has created the Terrace’s “Honey Bee Afternoon Tea”, which include: honey roast ham and English mustard mayonnaise sandwiches served on wholemeal bread, Vanilla scones and Morello cherry scones served with clotted cream, raw honey and homemade jam and Lemon shortbread served with lavender honey and blueberry cream crowned with a blueberry glaze.

This spring makeover is also accompanied by a new seasonal menu from Executive Head Chef, Byron Moussouris. Highlights of the seasonal menu include: Seared scallops, cauliflower puree, poached raisins, granny smith apple; Rack of spring lamb served with green beans and toasted almonds and Seared red snapper served with pickled heritage carrots and lemon dressing.

The restaurant has also added a classic cocktail to the menu aptly named “Bee’s Knees”, which is made of Hayman’s Gin, fresh pressed lemon and London honey - with £2 being donated to the Bumble Bee Conservation Trust for every drink purchased.

The terrace has been reimagined by master florist Nikki Tibbles Wild at Heart and is adorned with an abundance of wild English flowers creating a kaleidoscope of colour, with oversized bees laced within the meadow styled blossom.

The seasonal bee-inspired installation also coincides with the 10th “Bee Day” of luxury London-based jeweller, Alex Monroe, who is famous for her iconic bumble bee necklaces and pins.

This will be celebrated by the front of house team at Dalloway Terrace who will all be wearing the famous design.
