Named after the infamous 19th Century courtesan, with its famous location and namesake, Cora Pearl serves complex comfort food and cocktails in an historic Covent Garden townhouse. The quintessential Parisian establishment, Brasserie Lipp, was an inspiration for this 19th century inspired melodic architecture atmosphere, in the heart of London’s Theater district.
It’s lush French-boudoir contemporary feeling keeps the ethos of the notorious name, having no shyness for color in its interiors. The high-ceiling, with a parquet-floored upstairs dining room that is mirrored in reverse in the bar downstairs. The intimate hallmarks of Cora Pearl are glossy and velvety materials, with emerald deep-green tiles, leather banquettes, antique mirror panels, Aubrey Beardsley photo prints, and a bold caged iron staircase adding to the overall vintage ambience of opulence.
