Mr. Fogg’s Gin Parlour Tipples and Treats Experience

If you’ve ever heard of “afternoon tea” in England, this feels like a fun twist on that idea, but instead of tea, it’s all about gin.

The Tipples & Treats experience at Mr Fogg’s Gin Parlour is exactly what it sounds like!

Upstairs in the Gin Parlour, you sit surrounded by vintage decor and velvet seating.

Each person gets two cocktails along with a slice of cake, and the drinks are where this experience really stands out.

Instead of classic recipes, everything is a little unexpected, both in flavor and presentation.

The Bombay

One of the drinks I tried was the Bombay, made with coconut-washed Bombay Sapphire Premier Cru gin.

It leaned tropical with a light sweetness and had this smooth, almost creamy texture that made it feel indulgent without being too heavy.

It was one of those cocktails that’s easy to sip but still feels a little different from anything you’d normally order.

The Calcutta

The Calcutta went in a completely different direction and was much more savory.

It was made with Parmesan cheese-infused Renais gin, 42 Below vodka, and fresh tomato cordial water, which sounds unusual, but somehow worked.

The flavor reminded me a bit of a cocktail version of a tomato-based dish.

It was slightly salty, slightly tangy, and definitely memorable.

The Cake Pairing

Each cocktail is paired with a slice of cake!

Which is what makes this experience feel a little more special than just grabbing drinks at a bar.

The cake added a nice balance to the cocktails, especially with how different the flavors were between drinks.
