A huge congratulations to Jack Watson, our GM at Cahoots, who completed his second London Marathon! 🏃🎉

Jack ran in support of Kelly’s Cause Foundation, our mental health partner and a truly incredible organisation. Kelly’s Cause provides tools and training to help hospitality businesses better support mental health in the workplace, and it’s work we’re incredibly proud to champion.

Every pound Jack raised will help subsidise this vital training for businesses that might not otherwise be able to access it. We couldn’t be prouder, Jack, an amazing achievement for an amazing cause. 👏

We are incredibly proud of our very own Senior Designer, Amy Perring, who recently took on the Paris Marathon in support of Save the Children 🏃‍♀️

Save the Children works tirelessly across the globe and here in the UK to protect vulnerable children facing poverty, conflict, displacement, and crisis, providing safety, education, and healthcare to those who need it most. Amy, we are so proud of your determination, compassion, and everything you stand for. You have represented Inception Group beautifully, both on and off the course. 👏 remeber, every donation, no matter how small, makes a real difference to a person in need!

As a part of our International Women’s Day activity, we were proud to shine a light on our partnership with The Eve Appeal, a charity doing vital work in gynaecological cancer research and awareness. 💛

We hosted a Lunch & Learn session for our salaried team at Mr Fogg’s Botanical Tavern, where the brilliant Karen Hobbs from The Eve Appeal spoke about the signs and symptoms of gynae cancers, the charity’s incredible work, and how we can all play a role in supporting the women in our lives.
It was an afternoon that was equal parts informative and inspiring and a reminder of why this partnership means so much to us.

From 1st April, we’re taking action. A discretionary £1 will be added to all bills over £25 across our venues throughout April, with every penny going directly to The Eve Appeal. We can’t wait to see what we raise together. 🌷

We’re very excited to announce a new interactive multi-game experience from Monday 20th April, tucked beneath Mr Fogg’s City Tavern in the heart of Broadgate Circle! Mr Fogg’s Games Parlour is a Victorian-inspired competitive socialising concept in London, where groups gather, rivalries form, and only one player can be crowned Top Fogg. To celebrate the opening, Mr Fogg has waived the usual £10pp game fee until the end of June! Bookings now available here.

A Victorian Parlour Reimagined for Modern Competition

Descend to the lower ground floor of Mr Fogg’s City Tavern and step into a richly detailed world of characterful booths, warm lamplight and the gentle hum of friendly competition. The Games Parlour is designed for groups looking for something more engaging than a standard night out, a structured yet social experience that unfolds over six rounds of play within 80 minutes, each testing a different combination of accuracy, strategy and skill.

Groups move through each challenge in sequence, with scores tracked on a leaderboard as standings shift and rivalries build. The format is simple: master every game, not just one, and you stand the best chance of taking the title.

Six Games, One Session, Endless Bragging Rights

Drawing on the rich heritage of Victorian pastimes and classic pub games, each of the six rounds has been reimagined with a signature Mr Fogg’s twist. Expect Bagatelle, Beer Pong, Parlour Quoits, Mini Golf , Darts and Shuffleboard in London, familiar in spirit, but distinctly Fogg’s in execution. With 80 minutes on the clock, every round counts. Scores are kept by hand, competition builds naturally, and by the final challenge, only the most well-rounded player will emerge victorious.

Food, Cocktails & Drinks Delivered to Your Booth

No need to pause the action. Drinks and small plates can be ordered directly to your booth throughout your session, keeping the energy high and the rivalry firmly intact. The menu spans signature punches, adventurous cocktails, spritzes, wines and draught beers, alongside a selection of classic Tavern fare; everything you need to fuel a spirited contest.

Private Hire & Events at The Games Parlour

For those looking to host a private event in the City of London, The Games Parlour offers a distinctive and flexible setting. The full space accommodates up to 80 guests standing, with 24 guests able to play across multiple booths at a time – making it ideal for birthday celebrations, corporate team-building events, and larger group occasions.

With live DJs, karaoke, curated food and drink packages, plus a screen and projector for presentations and bespoke event content, the space adapts effortlessly to both social and professional gatherings.

We’re proud to announce that Inception Group took home two prestigious accolades at the inaugural Party Awards® — Gold for Best New Opening for Bunga 90, and Silver in the Best Bar Group category. The Party Awards®, created by the team at Eureka Events, launched as the first ever awards dedicated to celebrating corporate Christmas and summer parties, the events that, year after year, drive some of the biggest nights in the industry. And for its debut, Inception Group had quite the evening.

The atmosphere was electric, and by the end of the night, we had two awards to show for it. Bunga 90’s Gold win for Best New Opening speaks for itself. In a crowded shortlist of brilliant venues, the team behind London’s most talked-about opening delivered an experience that judges couldn’t overlook. It’s a testament to everyone who has poured their creativity and passion into making Bunga 90 the phenomenon it has become.

Equally, placing Silver in the Best Bar Group category, alongside some of the most established names in the business, reflects the strength of Inception Group as a whole. From Mr Fogg’s to Cahoots, Barts to Control Room B, our venues continue to set the standard for memorable, immersive experiences across London. Congratulations to every single member of the Inception Group team. This one is for you!
