Our newly opened Society of Exploration is located just a stone’s throw away from Charing Cross station, where Phileas J. Fogg embarked upon his journey around the world! Our fifth addition to the Mr Fogg’s collection boasts wood-panelled walls, warm leather seating and shelves laden with eccentric artefacts. A place of exploration and adventure, guests can travel the world via the portals of their taste buds by sampling elixirs from the farthest corners of the globe.

Explorers may plan their next quests with the assistance of our in-house expert in the Map Room, where one will find an impressive collection of antique maps, travel books, souvenirs and more. Alongside the bar lies our life-size model of a Victorian train carriage, perfect for small gatherings, complete with banquette seating, brass lamps and windows overlooking the bar area. Housing an extensive selection of worldly libations, the Society of Exploration is also home to Mr Fogg’s Mechanical Mixologist, an automated cocktail-making machine that sits proudly in the centre of the back-bar. Beautifully crafted and meticulously designed, the custom-made machine is designed to celebrate the spirit of experimentation and industrial innovation that took place in the Victorian period.

Come and encounter all means of exploration, as you bear witness to the fruits of British industrial revolution in the form of new-fangled machinery and the bold experimentations of mixology; all taking place within Mr Fogg’s Society of Exploration!

Our biggest Fogg’s venue yet, Mrs Fogg’s Maritime Club & Distillery will be opening in the heart of the City. Pulling inspiration from Mr Fogg’s Indian wife, Aouda, the venue pays homage to the beauty of her Indian culture. Upstairs will feature The Maritime Club – a sophisticated, elegant area featuring both nautical and Indian decorative touches. Guests can also enjoy exotic flavours and ingredients aboard a life-size version of the Rangoon Steamer, complete with beautiful curtained compartments. Downstairs is where the crew play havoc, as precious cargo is unearthed and the floor is transformed into a speakeasy-style bar.

Hidden away downstairs will be The Engine Room. Here, below deck, is where the crew will play havoc, as precious cargo and stowaways are unearthed and the floor is transformed into a raucous speakeasy-style bar with live entertainment.

On Friday 20th July, Maggie’s popped up at golf’s biggest summer party – The Mini Masters! Held at Dukes Meadow Golf Club in Chiswick, the much-anticipated charity event transforms the par-3 course into a golfing fun park filled with cocktails, celebrities, music and more. Maggie’s partnered with Grey Goose to serve deliciously refreshing summer cocktails, including Grey Goose Le Grand Fizz. The cocktails were served from our bright pink pop-up tent, complete with a live DJ, deck chairs, Rubik’s Cube tables and (of course) 80s music! Better still, all proceeds from The Mini Masters go to charity Leuka, which supports life-saving research into the causes and treatment of leukaemia.

In May 2018, Inception Group’s managers and head office escaped London and boarded the plane to Barcelona for our annual conference trip.

Reflecting on a successful year, we gathered to discuss 2017’s achievements, areas for improvement and our exciting future plans! In true Inception style, the group divided into teams for our annual group challenge, involving a series of team-building tasks around the city while gaining inspiration from Spanish culture. It was certainly a day to remember – from competing in a paella cook-off at The Paella Club, to searching for a mystery door hidden in the back-streets of Barcelona!

After two days packed with adventurous, memorable and motivational activities, the company trip was the perfect way to share key messages and bring colleagues together from different departments and venues.
