Now Open: Mr Fogg's City Tavern

Mr Fogg's City Tavern, the brand-new bar and restaurant in Broadgate Circle near Liverpool Street, is now open.

As guests enter the venue, they are met with a warm and welcoming interior with a ceiling bedecked in everything from bunting, Victorian boxing gloves, a rocking chair, tankards, wooden hot air balloons and flags collected from Phileas' travels around the world. 

The wood-paneled tavern features characterful portraits of Fogg's varied friends and tables made from glass display cabinets, showcasing prized collectibles. Adjoining the Tavern is the sumptuous Saloon, akin to the traditional tavern reception room for games playing and conducting business, with luxuriously upholstered sofas and low seating. This will lead to The Snug, another classic addition to Victorian pubs, a slightly separated area that offers a transitional space between Tavern and Saloon

The cocktail menu features punches, for one, two or four to share, alongside 'Matron's Tipples' that provide a modern take on classic cocktails. Highlights include:

Mexican Berry Biff £14 / £26 / £50

Citrusy / Vibrant / Fruity

Patrón Silver tequila, Martini Fiero vermouth, raspberry shrub, cranberry juice and fresh lime juice

Blue Bull Negroni £14.5

Boozy / Aromatic / Complex

Blue butterfly pea flower-infused Bombay Sapphire gin, Martini Riserva Speciale Ambrato vermouth, Luxardo Bitter Bianco aperitif and Nardini Acqua di Cedro liqueur mist

The Gilded Portfolio £15

Boozy / Aromatic / Complex

Hennessy V.S. cognac, Martini Riserva Speciale Rubino vermouth, Cointreau Noir orange liqueur, Guinness reduction syrup and Ardbeg 10yr Scotch whisky mist

The food menu features elevated classic tavern options such as the homemade chicken & leek pie served with creamy mash potato and red wine onion gravy, vegan shepherd's pie with tenderstem broccoli and vegan gravy and ribeye steak sandwich with melted blue cheese, caramelised onions, and American mustard on a sourdough bloomer. 

Every Saturday, Mr Fogg's City Tavern will host the Live Music Brunch featuring Midnight Rye Society. Guest are treated to a savoury main course and a sweet dessert course with 90 minutes of free-flowing prosecco or punch for £48. 

Savoury dishes include Eggs Benedict with crispy bacon on an English muffin lathered with homemade Hollandaise sauce or Fogg's Famous Fry-up featuring pork sausage, bacon rashers, fried egg, roasted cherry vine tomatoes, portobello mushroom, black pudding, Heinz baked beans, and a hash brown. Sweet dishes range from homemade pancakes with maple syrup, fruit, and coconut yogurt to The Tropical Mess featuring cinnamon meringue, coconut rum cream, mango, pineapple, and shaved toasted coconut.

Later in 2024, the downstairs area The Luggage Room will be opened to the public featuring experiential and immersive aspects that Mr Fogg's venues are known for.
