Mayfair haunts, part 1.


Our flagship store is on Bruton Street in the heart of Mayfair, a stones throw from the beautiful Mount Street and our head office, so we all spend lots of time traversing Grosvenor Square and taking detours along Mount Street for a spot of window shopping....
Mount Street Printers take you back in time, yet are fresh and current too. Their stationary and paper goods are a must and it is where we head to for luxurious gift tags and note cards.

Fino's is a wonderful basement bar that we sometimes meet up in after work for copious wine and their incredible home-made crisps which they hand out!

For those who don't know, Goyard are the most wonderful, French leather goods company and their new shop on Mount Street is heavenly. It makes you want to monogram everything!

A new arrival is the Mount Street Deli, which is part of Richard Caring's empire, and therefore rather chic. They sell delicious salads and cakes and have the most fabulous, whiskered gentleman serving coffee!

Hayward is a gentleman's outfitter who has been on Mount Street forever and has been dressing the likes of Roger Moore and Michael Caine since the 60's.

All along Mount Street, under the beautiful and very ornate red brick buildings are endless window boxes, they make the road feel wonderfully English.

Finally, at the end of the street the patterned carpet, patterned walls, horse-brass tastic pub that is The Audley!
