Situated in the heart of Fitzrovia, The Lucky Pig is a convivial blend of retro décor and classic cocktails, providing in-the-know Londoners with old fashioned glamour and good times as soon as they walk down the stairs and enter this intimate and decadent drinking den. Launched by Keith Tucker, Will Wigram and Paul Bromley in December 2011, The Lucky Pig is a rare gem for those looking to escape the hum drum of daily life and enjoy beautifully prepared drinks in a vibrant and welcoming environment. The design of the bar has drawn on elements from the Art Nouveau period and old New York to create a space packed full of fascinating design features, wooden floors, beautiful mismatched furniture and plush upholstery. Juxtaposing exposed brickwork with one-off art pieces, Chinese parasols, antique mirrors and chandeliers, the venue is a veritable treasure trove of collectible objects. Lining the side of the venue is a collection of cubby holes seating up to 8 people. Featuring cosy little nest tables and the glow of flickering candlelight, the booths are ideal for private parties. The whole feel of the venue is one of old school style and night-time mischief. The warm glow of the parasol lampshades cast light on the rickety piano and upstanding grandfather clock, while the tables and chairs can easily be pushed out the way for some spontaneous dancing once the evening gets underway. Even the antique ornaments are available for purchase if a guest really falls in love with a particular piece. The cocktail menu features classic, simple, but perfectly formed concoctions all served in beautiful glassware. Eschewing bottle service, the Champagne will be served in coupes not flutes, and there will not be a sparkler in sight. The highly trained bar staff provide expert advice on the best cocktail to suit a particular mood or taste. Examples from the menu include:
• Rum & Raisin Daiquiri – Bacardi Gold Infused with Cinnamon & Raisins
• Fleur de Vie – Belvedere Vodka, Fresh Lime, Elderflower & Fizz
Also available to accompany the drinks is a selection of bar snacks, created by The Lucky Pig team. There are meat and vegetable platters and handmade stone-baked pizzettas, with all ingredients locally sourced. Music is an important feature in The Lucky Pig calendar. Every month the bar hosts Blues Wednesdays, Jazz Thursdays, DJ on Fridays and their own resident DJ on Saturdays, so guests can enjoy a relieving post-work tipple or a long-awaited night of dancing and debauchery into the early hours. With 120 capacity standing and relaxed seating for 50 - 60 standing, The Lucky Pig is the ideal option for an event. Featuring distinct private areas for 8 – 150, a stage, multimedia options and a fantastic PA and sound system, the venue can host live bands, product launches, meetings, and intimate gatherings. The staff, all experienced in events are able to create a tailor-made events package and advise guests on all aspects of the event, from the canapé and drinks menus to the music choice. www.theluckypig.co.uk
