The world's best airport bar
- Sep 15, 2011
Is this the world's best airport bar? The Grey Goose Loft at the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse has opened at London Heathrow.
Pete Tong was on hand to open the Grey Goose Loft in style, playing a set to Upper Class passengers in Virgin Atlantic's renowned Clubhouse.
Clare Bacchus, Head of Clubhouses at Virgin Atlantic commented: "The Grey Goose project really exudes our Clubhouse vision of creating memorable experiences for our customers to enjoy and continue talking about when they leave for their destination.
"The fact that they will be able to spend time with some of London’s finest mixologists in a fabulous environment created by Grey Goose gives Virgin Atlantic another cutting edge style of service. We are looking forward to expanding this partnership further afield to our other Clubhouses and also on board our aircraft."
On arriving in the Grey Goose Loft at the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse, each traveller will be presented with a freshly prepared amuse-bouche to whet their appetite. The Loft's team of professional mixologists from some of London’s best bars will then set about creating a tailor-made Grey Goose cocktail to suit each guest’s own particular taste preferences. If a guest would like to continue their cocktail odyssey at their destination, the team will happily give personal bar recommendations for wherever they are travelling.
Grey Goose spokesperson Allison Mitchell said: "When we set out to offer Virgin Atlantic Upper Class passengers a truly unique and exceptional experience, we knew we were setting the bar high.
"In partnering with Virgin Atlantic, this has literally been the case with the Grey Goose Loft positioned in a stunning setting above the Clubhouse. We believe that the Grey Goose Loft offers an escape for travellers, where they will have the opportunity to enjoy a ‘personal taste’ experience and a reflection of Grey Goose, in the best of service and style. A traveller experience unlike any other airport bar in the world."
Over the coming months Virgin Atlantic Upper Class passengers can look forward to a series of special events being held in the Grey Goose Loft as Grey Goose celebrates its partnerships with the world’s best in art, music, fashion and film.
The Grey Goose Loft at the Virgin Atlantic Clubhouse is open to all Upper Class passengers and Gold Card holders with cocktails served daily from 4.00pm.
