A VERY BRITISH CHRISTMAS
There’s a reason so many films and TV shows feature London at Christmas – there’s a special magic in the air. In Mayfair, the streets come alive with twinkling lights and decorations, and you can almost feel the festive energy in the weeks leading up to Christmas.
It’s also a great opportunity to slow down and spend time around the table with your loved ones.
At Lilli By Akira Back, you can find that sense of occasion in Bloom, the restaurant’s private dining room for up to 14 special guess.
Intimate yet contemporary, Bloom offers a more private way to experience the restaurant, but with the same distinctive cuisine and thoughtful service. Perfect for creating fond festive memories over lunch or dinner.
Private Dining in the Heart of Mayfair
Set within Lilli by Akira Back, Bloom has an understated elegance that suits the festive season without feeling overly formal. Natural light, contemporary interiors, and a warm, intimate atmosphere creates a space that feels far removed from the bustle of Mayfair beyond.
It’s a natural choice for Christmas entertaining – whether you’re brining colleagues together at the end of a successful year, hosting clients over lunch, or gathering friends and family around one table.
With up to 14 guests, Bloom has the intimacy of a private home while retaining the hospitality and attention to detail of a fine dining restaurant. Conversations can unfold at their own pace, while we take care of all the practicalities in the background.
The Lilli By Akira Back Experience
At the centre of any gathering is, of course, the food.
Bloom offers guests the opportunity to experience the cuisine of Michelin-starred chef Akira Back in a more secluded setting. His cooking is known for its bold flavours, global influences, and fusion approach, bringing a sense of creativity to the table without losing sight of balance and quality.
The result is a magical dining experience well suited to your Christmas festivities.

A Christmas to Remember
Private dining in December is a wonderful treat, especially during the hectic holiday season.
Without the distractions of a larger room, there’s more space for conversation, another glass of wine, and the kind of unhurried moments that make your Christmas get-togethers the most memorable.
Gather your friends, family, or colleagues together in Bloom this Christmas to experience the magic of private dining in Mayfair. There’s always space for good food, good company, and a little more time around the table.
