Goes without saying, London has so many options that it’s easy to get lost in picking where to go for a nice cocktail. Among the many amazing spots, there are some overpriced tourist traps, but we’re here to help you navigate your journey through the top cocktail bars in Mayfair.
May Fair Bar at The May Fair Hotel
The May Fair Hotel has been around since the 1920s and boasts a beautiful bar, May Fair Bar, with a fantastic atmosphere. When the bar gets busy, you’ll find people standing and socialising around it. It’s the perfect atmosphere to mingle, enjoy some nice music, and even dance depending on the night. The crowd is almost always an even mix, with lots of trendy young people. The modern décor is refreshing, and the DJs they feature are on point. Conveniently located near Green Park tube station, it’s just across the road from Tabu London, one of the best exclusive nightclubs in Mayfair.
Mr Fogg’s Residence
You’ll find Mr Fogg’s venues all over London, however, Mr Fogg’s Residence located at 15 Bruton Ln. stands out as one of the top cocktail bars in Mayfair. Upon entering, you immediately sense the adventure awaiting you, precisely the experience Mr Fogg’s Residence aims to provide.
The explorer map-themed menu adds a delightful touch to the overall ambiance. Adorned with collectibles from around the world, the walls resemble those of an explorer’s drawing room. After all, Phileas Fogg, the protagonist of Jules Verne’s novel ‘Around the World in Eighty Days,’ serves as the inspiration.
The atmosphere is cozy, evoking a true sense of residence, and the cocktails are both wonderful and thematically fitting. The best part is, it’s a two minute walk from Luxx Club London, another top high-end exclusive club in Mayfair. That way, you can have a cocktail or two, then make your way towards the venue.
The Connaught Bar at The Connaught Hotel
The Connaught Hotel is renowned as one of London’s most luxurious hotels, boasting an exquisite cocktail bar. The ambiance here is decidedly more relaxed and business formal, making it a perfect choice for a catch-up with a friend or a romantic date.
Unlike some other spots, it’s not a party destination. The clientele at The Connaught Hotel tends to be mature and elite. Don’t miss out on trying their signature Connaught Martini and Maulata Daisy cocktails; they are simply divine.
To top it all off, the hotel is only a 10-minute drive from Tape London, one of the best exclusive clubs in Mayfair and a known celebrity hotspot.
