Mr. Fogg's Tavern - Piatti

excellent place for a few drinks with friends. the device and the ambiente are worth checking. I usually go for the whisky here, but their cocktails are also very good. highly recommended to check this hidden shade in the center of london!

When I walked into Mr Fogg’s Tavern located on St Martin’s Lane I found myself in a busy pub with chalkboards advertising ‘mother’s ruin’ gin cocktails and grog, patrons were drinking from old-fashioned tankards and the food was billed as ‘honest fare’ serving ‘London’s finest pie’, sandwiches and roasts all day – it was sort of like stepping back in time to Victorian London.

Sadly, I was never one of those creative children who had an imaginary friend whilst growing up…. But, I’ve managed to make one later on in life – Phileas Fogg Esq., the great British explorer brought to life in Jules Vernes’ timeless novel, Around The World in Eighty Days. I often frequent Fogg’s treasure trove of a residence in Mayfair, not least for the cracking cocktails. And then there’s the charming pied- à-terre in Covent Garden that he inherited from his auntie, the famous actress, Gertrude Fogg… Visualizza piatti

all about this place made me fall in love with him. a huge selection of gins from all over the world. the place was once the house of the beloved tante gertrude by fogg, whose photos are on the walls. the place has a Victorian atmosphere and the waiters are dressed in Victorian clothing, including corsets. I tried the tanqueray flor de sevilla gin with the Mediterranean tonic with was perfect. I also tried the elderflower warner edwards gin, who was also beautiful. the sweet potato friars were a perfect nibbel with him everything. in any case back.

I met a friend here for a few drinks. it is a cozy tavern in the covent garden. it was quite busy when we arrived, but it was possible to sneak a place near the bar. they are mainly specialized in cocktails and beer. a foodie friend in sydney recommended this place and glad I visited. my friend went for herrn foggs pale ale. I'm stuck at the punch-up in the garden. it was a mixture of bombay sapphire gin, homemade lavender tincture, fresh lemon juice and cranberry juice, with fentimans rose lemonade occupied. it was sweet enough for me and had a pink color to it. it was a nice drink I had once more. service is also here friendly.

It’s always nice when you are out for a warm early eve wander and you discover cool places to drink and eat. Even around Covent Garden which is essentially one of the tourist central locations, there is the odd cool joint where you are amongst locals. Mr Fogg’s is one of these spots. Just off theatre land there are two parts to this wonderful surprise. There is the tavern come drinking salon with an entrance on St Martins Lane. The interior is very old school pub themed around Phileas Fogg (hence the name). Then there is the Gin parlour upstairs which you access from an unassuming door on a pedestrianised side street. You are greeted by a host kitted out in the gear of derby hat, sleeve gart... Visualizza piatti

Have you heard the tale of Phileas Fogg? The fictional character said to have navigated around the world in 80 days?. Well there's more to this tale of adventure that you might have known and it makes the perfect backstory to a fabulous restaurant-come-pub right in London's theatre-land:. Whilst making his way across the globe, Phileas' dear aunt Gertrude died leaving him as the sole beneficiary of her London home. Together with her loyal housekeeper, Fanny McGee, they turned it into a rowdy tavern where she could celebrate with her theatrical chums. As soon as you step inside, you're greeted with all sorts of curious objects from Phileas' travels around the world. Flags hanging from the cei...

From the moment, you step into Mr Fogg’s it transports you back in time, as the bar is built on old English wooden panelling, and is decorated with paintings from historical events and ornaments from the past. This makes the experience much more enjoyable as the scenery itself is entertainment, and is a great tourist attraction. For starters, I opted to try all the starters on the menu, so I could taste all the dishes they had to offer. For the first starter, Fogg’s flaked smoked haddock kedgeree was presented, I have never had kedgeree before, and so this was a new dish for me to try. The Mr Fogg’s version consisted of chunks of Haddock, wrapped in curried boiled rice with the boiled egg ly... Visualizza piatti
