This famous central London bar is getting a saloon dedicated to Guinness

A new 'Guinness Saloon' is set to open in central London this summer, promising to put the iconic Irish stout 'front and centre'. This dedicated Guinness-themed area will be a key feature of the Mr Fogg's Market Tavern, the new flagship location for the popular Mr Fogg's bar chain. The Mr Fogg's Market Tavern is opening in Covent Garden, taking over the site previously occupied by the renowned wine bar, The Crusting Pipe, which reportedly closed its doors in December 2025 (though this date appears to be a typo in the original article, likely referring to a past closure). The new establishment aims to offer a unique experience, blending Mr Fogg's signature adventurous theme with a strong focus on Guinness.
