“Lady Jane” is the name of a Rolling Stones song, but also that of the “Nine Days’ Queen”. That Lady Jane reigned as Queen of England for just a few short days, and was subsequently executed in the Tower of London, in 1554. Welcome to the Tower of Luxembourg, a small speakeasy bar hidden away at the top of a narrow staircase. “Only Lady Jane members have access to the bar, via a new password revealed to them every week on Facebook,” says manager Dodi. The prohibition-style bar attracts a mixed clientele.
A little fox in a Prince of Wales check suit greets guests at the entrance to this secret cocktail bar, a delightful cabinet of curiosities. The interior is eclectic, lavish, yet intimate: Leopard print and fringed armchairs, fur cushions, regale portraits of rabbits in lace ruffs, Persian rugs, stuffed animals, a piano from a bygone era, creaky parquet flooring and a hatch separating the bar from its big sister, Ënnert de Steiler. Open all year round, the Gault&Millau “Bar of the Year 2020″ offers its exclusive guests a menu of signature cocktails, in addition to any of the classics on request, all to the rhythm of the Charleston and jazz numbers. Cheers!
