‘As you like it’ made a return on the 4th of November with the former name and got its fancy dining atmosphere once again.  

Following the sudden closure due to the pandemic, the iconic restaurant re-emerged last August after 18 months. However, the team of owners had made a drastic change to the interior and theme of the bar – it was being transformed into exotic Ibiza-themed spot named ‘Zarabanda Bing Bing’. The owners Apartment Group had spent half a million pounds into reforming the classy bar with British-beloved Spanish holiday theme –70s music, sophisticated cocktails and Spanish cuisine menu.  

Now, a little more than a year later, the restaurant is being transformed again – this time back to its original state. Although the opening on the 4th marked the old-is-new celebration, the owners had said before that the biggest change customers can expect is the return of the old name along with a couple of minor changes to the interior. While this came as a surprise when the old name made an appearance on Facebook, customers haven’t felt much of a difference, since the most loyal clients still used to refer to the redesigned venue as ‘As you like it’. 

The restaurant is advertising loads of upcoming new events and luxury dining giveaways so make sure to check out their social media if you fancy a grand Christmas or private dinner with your closest friends or family.
