Inception Group launches new Cahoots bar

The Inception Group is opening a second Cahoots bar opposite its original Cahoots site, growing the size of the overall group to 11 venues.

Themed along the lines of a 1940s train station and named Cahoots: The Ticket Hall & Control Room, the new venue will open on Kingly Street in Soho in November.

It will add to Inception’s other venues which include five Mr Fogg’s venues, which all have a Phileas Fogg theme, two Bunga Bunga supper clubs, a Bart’s speakeasy and 80’s themed club Maggie’s.

The new Cahoots will offer an extensive and “highly experimental” range of cocktails that will incorporate “fermentation, preservation, and long forgotten” ingredients. 

And reflecting the wartime vibe, between 11am and 5pm the menu will offer old fashioned British meals like pie, mash and liquor and fish-finger sandwiches, and American classics like fried chicken and waffles and Sloppy Joes.

After 5pm it will serve snacks like black pudding sausage rolls with piccalilli, mini scotch egg poppers, and ham grenades with sour cream and chives.

“Building on the great success of the original Cahoots, we are so excited to be opening The Ticket Hall & Control Room next door,” said Charlie Gilkes, co-founder of Inception Group.

Fellow co-founder Duncan Stirling said Cahoots had proved to be “one of the Group’s most successful brands, in terms of both sustaining an exceptional sales record and reputation - we hope the new venue will spark the same level of excitement.”
