A glass of wine and no big agenda

A weekday stop does not need much planning. Select beers, glasses of wine, well drinks, and small bites are part of the best happy hour lineup. This is Lido at its most casual, a simple pause for daily specials, so customers who come three times a week – as many do – always have something new to discover.
