Open all day, centrally located Brumus Bar and Restaurant at the Haymarket Hotel in Suffolk Place is the place to unwind over a glass of beer at lunch or the venue to enjoy a leisurely dinner. Its stylish contemporary interiors make it a happening meeting place for business associates or family and friends after work. Breakfast and afternoon tea is served too.

The menu works its way through chorizo, squid and salsa verde; roast figs, Parma ham and Gorgonzola; scallop, lemon and herb risotto; beer battered pollock, hand cut chips and pea purée, herb and mustard crusted lamb rack with watercress; slow roasted belly of pork with Savoy cabbage and grilled Suffolk chicken breast. To finish, consider plum tarte tatin with ginger ice cream, poached pear and orange ricotta with chocolate sauce or pannacotta with passionfruit syrup. The extensive wine list winds its way through the Old and New World and a variety of martini cocktails and bellinis entertain at the bar.
