Hidden down a small side street off Berkeley Square lies the modern adventurer's dream cocktail bar.
Modelled extravagantly on the very Mayfair house in which Phileas Fogg would have lived after travelling around the world in 80 Days, Mr Fogg's is the perfect spot for adventurous MurdockMen to enjoy inventive tipples.
The eccentric explorer's period drawing room provides the lavish interior setting. It is laden with artifacts and trinkets with walls adorned with everything from stuffed Indian tigers and crocodiles to ornaments collected through his worldwide voyage. Annotated maps and pictures from Fogg's travels also feature prominently throughout the bar, as do clocks, given the importance Mr Fogg places on punctuality.
Members of staff are at your service sporting specially designed, bespoke, old-fashioned Military style uniforms by Gieves & Hawkes to ensure that they appear every bit as authentic as the decorated interior.
The menu is a unique interpretation of ‘Victorian Cocktailian Culture’. The result being an elegant global drinking adventure.
Rare and unusual products and ingredients are sourced continually from each continent, seeking to open up guest's imaginations and palates to new and daring combinations.
Classics from the era have been revived with a modern twist, with the Absinthe Aperitifs and Gin Fizzes in particular catching our eye.
Futhermore an afternoon 'Tipsy Tea' option is available on Saturdays, offering an intriguing selection of Alcoholic Gin Teas.
