About us:

Established in 2011, Fables & Company is an importer of fine sparkling & still wines from around the world. In 2018 it launched what would become Plume, its first wine bar and events space, offering a large rotating list of wines & cocktails alongside a sharing plates menu led by the seasons, exotic ingredients and creativity. The space hosts events and offers an array of canapés and feasting menus.

The venue, appearing deceptively small, is known by word of mouth to have an unexpected wine focused speakeasy on the lower floor of Charles Dickens historic office, where he serialised tales Great Expectations, A Tale of Two Cities' and various Christmas tales in his Covent Garden newspaper.
