Harvey Nichols says of launching The House of Peroni on its fifth floor terrace: “Renowned for offering our customers an unrivalled experience in luxury retail and hospitality, we are thrilled to be collaborating with House of Peroni to bring an injection of Italian spring style to our flagship store.”     

The aperitivo menu is perfect to share and has been designed by the critically acclaimed co-owner and creative director of Bottega Wapping, Lorenzo Di Francesco. The dishes are all influenced by classic Italian street food but enhanced to give a rich depth and complexity of flavour. The chefs use the highest quality seasonal ingredients and ensure they are served in their purest form.

The drinks menu has been created by award-winning master mixologist Simone Caporale from The Artisan Bar at the Langham hotel. The highly inventive Nastro Azzurro-infused drinks are inspired by outdoor living and have been specifically created to compliment the food menu. The drinks contain unusual and fragrant ingredients such as bergamot and juniper as well as an abundance of fresh citrus fruits, berries and superfoods. Both can be enjoyed throughout the day and evening underneath a canopy of fragrant Italian flowers.

The terrace will be open every day from Friday 27^th March until Sunday 24^th May.
