Often referred to as the “Annexe of Buckingham Palace,” Claridge’s celebrates the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee with delicious specialty cocktails and the unveiling of Claridge’s archive for the first time ever. The Queen often visited the property over the years, from hosting a private family dinner to celebrating her ruby wedding anniversary with her late husband.

Starting June 1, Royal Archive Cabinet will display rare and precious items from the 1953 Coronation. In addition to mementos from an original swatch of the hand-stitched and beaded fabric from the Queen’s coronation gown, the display will also include hand-written annotations of the motif by designer Norman Hartnell, as well as original menus and cocktail cards served in 1953. Original photographs from the procession and the Queen’s visits to the hotel will also feature in the display.
Claridge’s will add five new cocktails to The Fumoir and Claridge’s Bar in honor of the Jubilee. Some of the cocktails include the Royal Stag, a concoction with whiskey notes as an homage to the Queen’s love of the Scottish Highlands, and the Windsor Rose, a drink originally served at Claridge’s on the Queen’s Coronation Day in 1953.
