Love is in the air at The Ivy on the Square this February with the arrival of a special installation, sweet treats and cocktails, just in time for Valentine’s Day.

From Wednesday, 5 February, the restaurant’s entrance will be adorned with an eye-catching floral ‘Love Promises’ installation, inspired by the iconic ‘Ponts des Arts’ bridge in Paris.

Featuring a display of stunning pink and red roses, the installation will include an area where guests will be encouraged to place their very own ‘Love Promises’ padlocks gifted to diners who enjoy the restaurant’s Valentine’s Day dessert at the end of their meal.
