History of The Ivy Montpellier Brasserie

This building was the original ‘Montpellier Spa’ opened in 1809 by Henry Thompson and replaced by the current building designed by George Allen Underwood in 1817. The Rotunda dome was added by J N Papworth in 1825-6. After the spa waters went out of fashion, the Rotunda served as a concert and dance hall. It became a bank in 1882 and since 1926, Lloyds Bank. The Ivy chain began operating from the building in 2017 and much to the delight of the buildings many fans they retained many of the original features of the spa including the impressive Rotunda dome and some of the bank features such as the old vault doors.

Their expert mixologists have curated a delightful summer spritz menu in collaboration with Aperol and Campari showcasing timeless favourites such as Aperol Spritz as well as limited-edition specials including Passionfruit Spritz. Or why not enjoy table-side theatre with their Whispering Angel Rose poured tableside from a Jeroboam. It’s the ultimate refreshment on a warm summer’s day!
