Mr Fogg's Society Of Exploration, Society Of Exploration

This is the third Mr Fogg's bar we have visited. The concept is fab. The atmosphere is luxurious comfort table service with amazing themes & attention to detail. The drinks are imaginative & taste yummy. The staff are great but you can at times wait for some time for service. We have only had the vegan sausage rolls & nuts which were great & tasty although sausage rolls had very flaky pastry which was a bit messy without a plate. It's not cheap, but we do enjoy the experience. Love that you book a table and are confirmed a seat too. Maybe that's a sign I'm getting old!

Overall, this was a real treat and a fantastic place to visit, with exceptional cocktails. From the moment we arrived, we were warmly welcomed and shown to our seats. The first round of drinks was superb – unlike anything we’ve tasted before – and the live singer was a perfect 10/10, adding to the ambiance and the stunning interior. However, (and I hope this was just a one-off), when we tried to order our second round of drinks, my partner was told his choice wasn’t available. He selected something else, only to then be told they were out of egg whites, which was surprising given the high-quality cocktails on offer. This meant that quite a few options from the menu were unavailable. We also had to move tables when the group next to us spilled out their nut tray – I’m allergic to peanuts. The staff were accommodating and quickly found us another table, but after that, it became difficult to get their attention. This led to some issues with timing – my partner’s drink arrived before mine, and the flow of the experience was disrupted, which was unfortunate as we’d been having such a great time. I really hope this was just an isolated incident because everything else was exceptional, and we were thoroughly enjoying ourselves before the hiccups during the second round.
