The Fumoir
Discreetly tucked away in Claridge’s art deco interior, The Fumoir is where those in the know have enjoyed a quiet drink in London since 1929.
By day, sip a cappuccino and nibble on macaroons. Come by for pre-theatre drinks such as a signature Claridge’s Julep. Or drop in for a vodka martini nightcap, perfectly mixed and served in an ice-chilled glass. As William Klein portraits gaze down moodily from the walls, this is a place to settle in, enjoy a luxurious cocktail and relish the moment.

Designed by Thierry Despont
Acclaimed artist, architect and designer Thierry Despont poured his passion for the beaux-arts into every detail of The Fumoir. The deep aubergine décor and ruby-red velvet seating create the atmosphere of a jewellery box, perfectly enhanced by lighting that gleams softly in the Lalique crystal panels.
Mixing with the best
Whether it’s the classic concoctions of The Fumoir or modern libations of The Painter’s Room, the bars at Claridge’s all have a story to tell.
