LONDON
Viva La Vivi!
QUIRKY AND COOL DECOR, A SHOWSTOPPING WEST END LOCATION AND AN
INSPIRED RETRO MENU, SAMANTHA READY FINDS OUT WHY VIVI RESTAURANT
AND BAR IS BECOMING THE GO-TO NEW KID ON THE BLOCK.
You can’t get a more centrally located London
hotspot than new hipster joint, Vivi, which is just a
few short steps from Tottenham Court Road tube.
It was so easy to get to that my guest and I were
uncharacteristically early for our midweek London
treat dinner, which proved to be a much bigger
blessing in disguise when we realised that we could

spend that time working our way through the cocktail
menu at ‘The Bar’, one of the four cleverly designed
spaces that combine in this quirky yet cool bar and
restaurant concept.
Design-led is the flowing theme throughout the
complementary, but totally individual four zones –
The Bar, the main Dining Room, the more informal
Gallery, a space that’s flooded with light and has
long tables perfect for brunch or larger groups, and
the Liquid Lounge that morphs from refined
afternoon tea spot to sophisticated evening cocktail
retreat as night falls.
