Inception Group to open Mrs Fogg’s Maritime Club and Distillery in London
Inception Group has announced it is to open a new restaurant named, Mrs Fogg’s Maritime Club and Distillery, located in Broadgate Circle.
Spanning two floors the restaurant will take guests on a journey aboard the Rangoon Steamer. Guests will step into Mrs Fogg’s Maritime Club, which will be complete with all of the sights and sounds of a faraway port, from the moment they enter.
On the ground floor, a large central bar surrounded by lush foliage, large wooden fans and antique nautical items, will provide a focal point from where the talented bar team will serve up Indian-spiced cocktails.
Downstairs, guests will visit the ‘engine room’ a space decorated with cargo, crates and stowaways, which will host live entertainment. Guests will be able to pedal a custom-designed cocktail bar Rickshaw, along with visiting a fully working gin distillery, which will be modelled on underground Victorian distilleries.
Staff will be clad immaculately in authentic yet contemporary naval attire. Cocktails at the restaurant will include Ta-Ta’s Margarita, turmeric-infused Cabrito Blanco tequila and Rinomato Americano Blanco, chili-infused honey, lime cocktail.
Open from 11am, Mrs Fogg’s will serve up small plates inspired by the cuisine of the subcontinent until late. Guests can tuck into everything from Keralan Fried Chicken and Mini Mango Salads, to Sweet Potato Pani Puri and Jackfruit Biryani presented in traditional Indian tiffin boxes.
On Saturday afternoons, a Tiffin Tea experience comprised of sweet and savoury bites served in Dabbawala tins, live entertainment, and eclectic cocktails will be available to book. An expansive outdoor terrace with aged canvas umbrellas, warm wooden furniture and exotic plants will also provide a verdant oasis in the middle of bustling Broadgate.
Co-founder Charlie Gilkes said: “We are delighted that Mr Fogg has found his perfect partner and look forward to introducing Mrs Fogg to Londoners very soon.”
