Royal Institution Bar, Habitat Room

Welcome to The Royal Institution, a place for the curious and adventurous. Originally established in 1814 to promote Literature, Science, and the Arts, it was honored with a royal charter in 1821.

In this new era, we remain rooted in our historical foundations and themes, paying homage to significant moments like the iconic 'Birds of America' exhibition by John James Audubon in the early 1800s. Our decor celebrates the rich cultural history of our esteemed building. Stepping into the 21st century, our three distinctive rooms offer a captivating journey through the world of fine wine, spirits, and expertly crafted cocktails. Our philosophy is simple yet exceptional, aiming to elevate classic and signature cocktails to new heights.

The Habitat room is a secluded gem located at the back of the building, offering privacy for your special occasions. Inside, you'll find a captivating green interior adorned with quirky animal-themed decor. The room is further enhanced by an inviting open fireplace, creating an elegant and charming atmosphere for a variety of events including birthday parties, Christmas parties, drinks receptions, and more.
