The Berkeley

Our 20th year sees a transformation from art gallery to wine bar - The Berkeley.

Yes, we do love a good glass of wine, but there's simply no way we're going to leave our love of art behind while we enjoy it. The Berkeley will still be bringing art to Berkhamsted, but now we'll be bringing it in a grown-up wine bar, with amazing art, constantly changing and updating…

The Berkeley is introducing an innovative 'wine by the glass' service -- you help yourself, when you're ready, from one of the temperature-controlled machines. They're specially designed to preserve the wine for far longer than it will take to drink it -- up to 28 days -- so each and every glass is perfectly chilled, or beautifully held at room temperature, just as it should be.

As well as a relaxed space to kick back and enjoy good wine, good art and good company, The Berkeley will be the setting for guided wine tastings -- a great chance to try something you might not normally -- and art evenings. It's also the perfect venue for private parties, whether you're entertaining for business or purely for pleasure.

You can also register for membership at The Berkeley. And like any exclusive club, membership has its distinct privileges. Book your favourite table in advance, get a discount on that piece of art that would look just perfect above the sofa, and enjoy The Berkeley's 'take home' service -- find a wine you just love, and then take some away with you to enjoy another day.

It doesn't end there, mind you. As a member, your 'Berkeley Card' will get you special treats, discounts and more at a range of retail and service partners in Berkhamsted. We're only partnering with the very best in town -- we love shopping and we love great service, so we're committed to sharing that with our friends.

And talking of friends, what better way to thank yours or just celebrate their special occasion, than with a Berkeley gift card. Top up a card to your chosen value, gift it to your friend or family member, and let them raise a glass at The Berkeley, the wine bar that everyone will soon be talking about.

The Berkeley is busy polishing glasses and straightening the art on the walls ready for a mid – late September opening. And -- don't hang around -- we are already taking bookings for Christmas. It would be a fabulous setting for a festive drink or two with friends or a quick after-work drink with the team.

But don't wait until Christmas. We've got the perfect table for you and your friends, and we'd love to get to know you. Let us show you to your table...
