The power of passion

Discover the world of Red Carnation

The Leopard Lounge Bar

Our famous Leopard Lounge is one of the area’s most popular night spots. The sultry interiors include black lacquer walls, leather-lined banquettes and a striking leopard-print carpet, as well as a beautiful ceiling hand-painted by celebrated local mural artist Lino Mario.


Our talented mixologist team prepare classic cocktails and delicious signature “Leopard” martinis, as live music plays all night long. Pull up a seat at the marble-topped bar under the punkah fans and watch as the Leopard Lounge Bar comes alive. Join locals and guests in enjoying a cocktail before dinner, or simply indulge in some of our excellent cognacs, grappas, whiskeys, rums, and bourbons.


With live music every day, drink and dance the night away in the intoxicating atmosphere of Palm Beach’s premier nightspot.

Whet your appetite

Choose from dishes such as our Slow Roasted Rib of Beef from our carving trolley served with a homemade béarnaise sauce and a red wine and shallot jus. To end your meal, an array of tempting desserts await, including a decadent chocolate Bavarois made using our own chocolate, Legend, created in collaboration with Valrhona and served with estate grown crabpear gel, chocolate cremeux, pear and vanilla sorbet and salted chocolate crisp. 

Please note a dinner jacket is required for gentlemen in the George V Dining Room.
