An inviting bar with a sea view, BarChick likes to sip and bronze at The Grand Hotel in the summer months, making full use of the terrace and mingling with tourists and local cool cats.

Neatly fringed with glass panels, the sea breeze is kept at bay, leaving you to admire the sunset with your hair neatly where you put it. Inside décor is bright, bold and welcoming and the recently redesigned bar offers plenty of space for intimacy, with high ceilings and comfortable booths overlooking the ocean, dreamy.

House cocktails are on offer alongside the ever-popular Champagne cocktails. You’ll also notice Jersey Apple Brandy VSOP on the list, a little home-grown beaut. BarChick recommends a Bloody Mary in the sunshine on a lazy Sunday afternoon or act like a baller and hit this five-star hotel for a Champagne-fuelled breakfast, we did.
