Mr Fogg’s bars celebrate Paris Olympics with Olympian Elixirs cocktail menu

In a nod to the ongoing Paris Olympics, Mr Fogg’s, a collection of themed bars in London, has launched a new cocktail menu titled Olympian Elixirs. This limited-time offering, available until 11th August, features drinks inspired by the spirit of the games and is presented in collaboration with the French Grey Goose L’Original vodka.

The menu is being served across several Mr Fogg’s venues including the House of Botanicals, Pawnbrokers, Hat Tavern & Gin Club, Tavern and Gin Parlour, and City Tavern. Each drink on the menu, priced around £14 to £14.50, aims to capture the essence of the Olympic spirit through special blends of flavours.

Highlighting the menu are concoctions like the Record Breaker at Mr Fogg’s Hat Tavern—a fruity mix of Grey Goose vodka, Chambord black raspberry liqueur, Cointreau, raspberry shrub, pineapple juice, and lime juice, finished with grapefruit and bergamot tonic water. The Torchbearer’s Treasure at Mr Fogg’s Pawnbrokers combines vodka with Nardini Acqua di Cedro liqueur, basil and elderflower cordial, topped with rhubarb and hibiscus tonic water. The Triumphant Choice at Mr Fogg’s House of Botanicals offers a lighter zest with its blend of vodka, Aperol, orange syrup, orange blossom water, and lime juice.

Mr Fogg’s venues are known for their eclectic and immersive atmospheres inspired by the fictional world of Jules Verne’s Phileas Fogg, with the first bar opening in 2013 in Covent Garden. In 2015 arrives Mr Fogg’s Gin Parlour, which serves over 300 gins. 2018 saw the launch of three new concepts; Mr Fogg’s House of Botanicals, a Fitzrovia-based floral oasis, Mr Fogg’s Society of Exploration, just minutes away from Charing Cross station and Mr Fogg’s Apothecary, located opposite Claridge’s. Mr Fogg’s Pawnbrokers and Mr Fogg’s Hat Tavern & Gin Club in Soho opened in 2023 with Liverpool Street’s Mr Fogg’s City Tavern joining this year. Each offering present a distinct thematic experience reflective of the adventurous spirit of their namesake character.
