The Bollinger Bar @ Palm Court

The sumptuous splendour of The Balmoral's Bollinger Bar is given that added pinch of exclusivity by being the only one of its kind in Scotland. With cavernous ceilings, a comfortable mix of lounge seating and tables, and sophisticated dark wood furnishings, it's a tranquil enclave from the bustle of Princes St, while the bar caters for every celebration, from that much-awaited incremental pay-rise (champagne cocktail: £13.00) to all-out, "I've just bought my third yacht!" indulgence (Pol Roger - 'Sir Winston Churchill' vintage: £290.00).
A little nook of grandeur in a reassuringly friendly setting.
