About this space

The Society of Exploration is located just a stone’s throw away from Charing Cross station, where Phileas J. Fogg embarked upon his journey around the world. A place of exploration and adventure, the Society of Exploration boasts wood-panelled walls, warm leather seating and shelves laden with eccentric artefacts. Guests can enjoy gatherings in the semi-private Explorers Den, housing an impressive collection of antique exploration equipment, paintings of adventurers, discoveries and more. Alongside the bar lies the life-size model of a Victorian train carriage, perfect for seated and standing events and complete with banquette seating, brass lamps and windows overlooking the bar area.

Up to 200 guests standing
