The Hilton London Olympia has refurbished its restaurant and bar and renamed it Society.

Reflecting its location on Kensington High Street, the revamp was inspired by the Victorian era in Kensington, with silhouetted Victorian hats one of the design themes.

The restaurant has been redecorated in black and cream with red lampshades, while the bar features a colour palette of chocolate brown, cyan and burnt orange with crushed velvet armchairs, wooden benches and chandeliers.

The eatery also features new menus by executive head chef Grant Ferguson. The bar now serves “classic bar foods with a twist”, such as mini full English breakfast and an onion ring tower with Japanese panko breadcrumbs.

The restaurant offers comfort food such as steak and kidney pie with mash, and braised beef rump with root vegetables, using locally sourced ingredients.

The works are part of an ongoing £7million refurbishment of the 450-room property.
