Hat Tavern

Sitting opposite Henry Heath’s Hat Factory, Mr Fogg’s Hat Tavern & Gin Club is an establishment where Phileas can share two of his greatest passions: the art of fine gin and millinery.

Spanning across two floors on Soho’s Great Chapel Street, The Hat Tavern & Gin Club is a haven for both hat enthusiasts and discerning drinkers alike. Here, patrons can admire the extraordinary collection of hats on display, from bright-coloured bonnets and flamboyant fascinators to the tallest of towering top hats – all whilst savouring a wondrous selection of eccentric libations served by Mr Fogg’s dedicated hat makers.

Keeping the Gin Club history of the building alive, beneath the bustling Hat Tavern lies a refined secretive space, where exceptional millinery meets exquisite gin libations. Accessed through a secret entrance, this exclusive club boasts Mr Fogg’s vast collection of fine gins and a large trunk of hats for guests to try on.

Gin libations are served from a bar created from a repurposed milliners’ bench, inside an exclusive room where Fogg and his friends would enjoy hat fittings alongside a large glass of ‘Mother’s Ruin’ away from prying eyes.

The Hat Tavern offers a warm, intimate haven for merry drinkers throughout the jolly season. Step inside and marvel at our extraordinary collection of hats and portraits, adorned with mistletoe and twinkling lights, evoking the festive spirit. Our dedicated hat makers invite you to indulge in Christmas libations, including Guinness, seasonal draught beers, mulled wine, and expertly crafted festive cocktails—all perfect for chasing away the winter chill.

For those in the know, venture downstairs to discover our hidden gem: a secret gin club boasting a collection of over 100 gins, ready to be explored by discerning connoisseurs.
