In addition, on the third floor is another new “rhubarb” offering, the Affogato Bar, designed by Tom Bartlett of Waldo Works, and modelled on a Milanese original. Every shopper needs a re-invigorating jolt of caffeine and a rush of sugar! The eponymous espresso tipped onto a scoop of vanilla ice cream will be served with sugared doughnuts, pastizies and glazed almond twists.

For further information on either Bond & Brook or Affogato, please contact “rhubarb” on 0208 812 3200.
