Vintage Salt is set to be the al fresco dining destination of the summer and the ideal venue to escape the hustle and bustle of Oxford Street. The Drift Bar, located on the terrace will have a separate entrance, accessed via the Boardwalk which will be lined with nautical ropes guiding the way to the outdoor terrace. A wooden beach hut will serve an extensive list of chilled reds, rose, white wine and champagne and the dedicated G&Tea bar will offer Gin cocktails. Guests can escape the sun in one of the two beach huts or enjoy a tipple from the special sundowners menu on the terrace deckchairs while watching the sun go down.

Starters from the Beech Oven menu include; Selection of oysters, Earl Grey smoked salmon, London particular fritters with Colman’s dressing and Spiced tuna tartare served with avocado and pickled cucumber. Diners can then choose from an array of fish dishes including; Lobster buttie with truffled fries, Camden Hells fish and chips and Halibut fish finger sandwich.
