The Mitre Hotel in Hampton Court has opened two new restaurants, Coppernose and 1665.
Positioned perfectly in the heart of Hampton Court, The Mitre Hotel’s brand new 1665 is a sophisticated riverside brasserie with a terrace overlooking the Thames. Coppernose, on the other hand, is a casual, easy-to-enjoy café and wine bar. Take your pick – both are fantastic for food and drink options, an fabulous atmosphere, and wonderful surroundings.
The restaurants are currently offering 50% off all food (lunch and dinner), providing guests with live acoustic jazz all day long, and are open from 11:30am until 11pm. Visitors are welcome to take part in tours of the main hotel whose rooms debut next month after an extensive makeover. There are five rooms available for ‘sneak peeks’, and they really do show off the quirky British elegance and luxury of The Mitre.
Quintessential afternoon tea is staple at The Mitre. Whether you go with Henry’s Coppernose or Bollinger Champagne, it’ll be the best in East Moseley.
Aside from breathtaking view of the river Thames and Hampton Court Palace, The Mitre boasts world’s first Whispering Angel Boat House Bar, tucked into the corner of their riverside terrace. Rosé brand Whispering Angel have entrusted The Mitre with their very first concession bar, and it has been a hit with visitors so far.
The Mitre is also launching its new draft beer ‘The Six Wives’, a delicious light, floral and hoppy ale is made in Hampshire specifically for the hotel and named after King Henry VIII’s many wives!
About The Mitre Hotel
It is widely believed that the hotel was built in 1665 at the direction of Charles II as a ‘hostel for visitors to the Palace’. An incredibly interesting spot, rich with historical and royal connections, the building has a strong association with Hampton Court Palace.
The origins of the hotel itself date back to the reign of Henry VIII. The building has been reconstructed since 1665 and is Grade II listed as a mid-18th century edifice by Historic England. The Mitre is also an Archaeology Priority Area, home to sections of the fabric of an earlier river wall,circa 1700.
