Covent Garden is such an interesting part of London and a must-see for any visitor yet up to now, good places to eat have been rather thin on the ground. A few have sprung up in recent years and one of the most fun is Mr Fogg’s Tavern. The story goes that the adventurer, Phileas J Fogg, the famous character from Around the World in 80 Days, inherited the Tavern on the death of his beloved aunt Gertrude.
Her long-standing housekeeper, Fanny McGee, was to be permitted to set up a tavern on the ground floor whilst Mr Fogg kept the upstairs Gin Parlour & Salon to relax in. I’ve long been a fan of the original Mr Fogg’s, a speakeasy hidden away in a Mayfair mews, with a very eclectic decor. Both of the Mr Fogg’s establishments are part of the Inception group, which runs party favourites such as Bunga Bunga,..The post Around the World In One Day at Mr Fogg’s Tavern appeared first on Luxury Columnist.
