  • About

At night-time, the entrance to Quag’s in Bury Street has a welcoming glow.

Flowers play an important ’part in the ambient mix, making colourful statements against muted backgrounds.

Looking back from the bar, the area is flooded with natural light. The bas-relief by Dhruva Mistry is lit by recessed halogen spotlights.
Arrive early at Quaglino’s if you can, for to experience this great room briefly devoid of customers is to enjoy the restaurant at its most deliciously theatrical. The stage is set: a glittering, glamorous affair of light and space. You enter through a reception area of warm honeyed stone that leads you down a first sweeping staircase into the bar area. This is on a mezzanine platform that projects into the room and connects to the main floor below by another imposing flight of marble stairs, which are flanked by gleaming bronze handrails incorporating the shining ‘Q’ motif.
