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 snack on Claridge's fried chicken. Come by for pre-theatre drinks such as a signature Fumoir Negroni. 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.

The interesting details in The Fumoir are the light that gives the bar an intimate atmosphere, designed by Thierry Despont.

Designed by Thierry Despont

Acclaimed artist, architect and designer Thierry Despont poured his passion for the beaux-arts into every detail of The Fumoir. With the atmosphere of a jewellery box, this art deco hideaway is perfectly enhanced by lighting that gleams softly in the Lalique crystal panels.
