The seasonal food menu celebrates bold flavours and fresh ingredients. Small plates like crispy chorizo croquetas with Manchego; lamb polpette with smoked yogurt and mojo rojo; and sweetcorn tarragon fritters with smoked tomato salsa are perfect for sharing. For something more substantial, guests can choose from dishes like oven-roasted Atlantic cod with spring onion potato and prawn butter sauce; a vibrant garden pea and courgette risotto with shaved fennel and dill oil; or a pulled chicken salad with crispy pancetta and Caesar dressing. Light bites, including padrón peppers sprinkled with sea salt; and truffle pecorino nut mix, pair effortlessly with the rooftop’s expertly crafted drinks selection. Indulgent desserts like churros with hot chocolate sauce and toasted pistachios or a rich Burnt Basque cheesecake with blood orange offer the perfect finishing touch.

Those looking for a summer spritz can enjoy the 1864 Peach & Pear Bellini. There’s also a selection of non-alcoholic options, including a herbaceous Garden Cooler with fresh cucumber and mint and a strawberry-infused Mountain Summer Cup.
