This exclusive champagne bar in London has lived, surviving four kings and a queen, the blitz, several booms and more than a few busts. It has seen it all and is an integral part of the vibrant, glamorous and debauched Soho we know and love today.
Originally a series of four Georgian town houses, this fantastic London venue was originally opened as a restaurant in 1867 by Auguste Kettner, (chef to Napoleon III) and became infamous as the rendezvous of choice for deliciously colourful characters of the time, renowned for hosting incredibly risqué parties. Oscar Wilde dined here and this venue is mentioned as his venue of choice in his trial notes. Agatha Christie and Bing Crosby were also celebrated regulars.
Gorgeously glamorous, the Grade II-listed building boasts a brasserie, champagne bar and eight private dining rooms, all available for hire.
This stunning venue continues the tradition of incredible (if not always so risqué) parties.
