Mr Fogg's
Multitalented Mayfair bar with an imaginative theme

The fictional home of explorer Mr Phileas Fogg; the strange but intriguing Mr Fogg’s bar in Mayfair is as much laden with theatrics and treasures as it is with fine drinks. Decorated with weird and wonderful paraphernalia that the fictional character from the 1873 Jules Verne novel brought back from travelling the world – pieces of taxidermy, maps and clocks, hunting rifles and birdcages and paintings of the British adventurer’s ancestors – the venue is as diverse as the crowd that frequents it, and the drinks fittingly exotic. On Saturdays and Sundays, Tipsy Tea is on, offering a selection of champagne and gin teas, such as the Woburn Abbey: a teapot of English Breakfast tea infused with Hendrick’s gin, crème de bergamot and fresh lemon juice.
