A brief introduction to Mayfair

Mayfair is one of the city’s most desirable addresses, whether you are a London resident, business owner, retailer, or entertainment mogul. 

With a well-established heritage, this area is known as being quintessentially British while boasting high class style and a touch of eccentricity. The area is filled with independent shops and restaurants, many of which have been part of Mayfair for decades and even centuries in some cases. Nestled between its glamorous streets you can find quiet gardens, beautiful old churches and exciting pockets of art and culture, including the new Gagosian Art Gallery, currently under construction on Grosvenor Hill.

The royal china collection at Thomas Goode

The royal china collection at Thomas Goode

In 2010, a comprehensive revitalisation turned Mount Street into one of the city’s most exclusive shopping streets. Now containing brands like Marc Jacobs and Christian Louboutin, taking a wander along the street is like having front row seats at London Fashion Week. Tucked beneath Mount Street however is Mount Street Gardens; a calm, green oasis, filled with artworks and plenty of benches, in which you can take refuge if all the shopping gets too much.

Down Street tube station

Down Street tube station

The London Underground has several ‘ghost stations’, where trains still whistle past empty platforms. You can visit the shuttered entrance to one such station, on Down Street. This station once served as wartime offices for Winston Churchill, after the station was formally closed. These days a blank door conceals the entrance to the disused station and a non-descript newsagent has taken up residence next door, but the history down below remains.

The Handel House Museum

The Handel House Museum

Blink and you’ll miss the Handel House Museum, hiding up above Aspinal of London, on Brook Street. Only a blue plaque on the front of the building hints it might hold more than a shop. Head down narrow Lancashire Court and you will find the entrance to this remarkable little museum, which contains portraits of the musician among restored Georgian interiors. The museum was Handel’s home for over 35 years before his death in 1759.

The gardens were restored and reopened to the public in 2007 and there’s now a café up on the terrace too.
