Turn through history at The Windmill…
Ryan Bish’s restaurant The Windmill encapsulates the glitz and glamour of the 1930s by bringing burlesque theatre into the modern-day and combining it with a Michelin star dining experience. The Windmill describes itself as ‘theatrical dining where there is no edge to the stage’ and this truly is a venue where the ‘future is inspired by the past’.
Named after an 18th-century windmill, its location is rich with a vibrant theatrical history. In the 1930s, the building was purchased by Laura Henderson. Famous for challenging conventions and breaking down norms, Henderson transformed the space by introducing a series of acts featuring singers, dancers, and showgirls. Henderson’s club soon became the talk of the town, leading her to curate a program named ‘The Revudeville’ that was so popular it was often frequented by celebrities and even royalty of the day.
Theatre manager Vivan Van Damm made headlines again by incorporating nude women on stage, inspired by the Moulin Rouge in Paris. Coming head-to-head with Lord Chamberlain, the censor for all theatrical performances in London, Van Damm managed to utilise nude sculptures as leverage for the acceptance of her performers. If the women promised not to move - then they were allowed. Her performance became known as the living statues, and they went on to tour worldwide.
Now, The Windmill provides a star-studded service. Ex-head chef of Zuma Toby Burrows and mixologist Andy Mil combine their expertise to produce a dining experience impressive in its own right. Pair this with the glamorous, never-seen-before 1930s-inspired performances and The Windmill delivers a restaurant experience that you won’t ever forget.
