Swap the hustle and bustle of the city for flip-flops and island living at Bloomsbury's very own Beach Bar, returning to The Montague on the Gardens this June. The luxury boutique hotel is bringing the colorful and lively affair back to its outdoor Wood Deck again after a triumphant debut last summer on London's bar and dining scene.  

The Beach Bar is even bigger and better this year, with a refined design and an all-new drinks and BBQ menu. Visitors will be transported straight into paradise as they enjoy a Bahamian beach setting complete with real sand and a thatched-roof beach hut. Delicious tropical cocktails and barbecued burgers of all varieties (from classic beef to chicken, tuna and veggie options) start at $13. A tasty line-up of tempting desserts, including assorted ice creams, will really get you into the summertime spirit!

Those seeking to ramp up the fun even further can enter The Beach Bar's Jet Ski Selfie Competition, back for a second year by popular demand. By taking a selfie on the jet ski provided at the venue and posting it on social media using the hashtag #SurfMontague, guests will be entered into a drawing to win a two-night stay at The Montague's sister hotel, Summer Lodge Country House Hotel, Restaurant and Spa. This luxurious five-star hotel is nestled in the picturesque Dorset countryside, in the village of Evershot.

The Montague Beach Bar will open on June 1, 2017 and will run throughout the summer, until Sept. 24, 2017. Opening times are midday until 10:00pm, seven days a week.

Visitors are encouraged to call and check availability before coming to the Beach Bar. Individuals and groups up to 10 people should call +44 (0) 20 7637 1001. Groups of 10 or more, or those interested in private events should call +44 (0) 20 7612 8411 or email meetmt@rchmail.com.
