Crisp Pizza moves to Mayfair with the help from the Devonshire

The Marlborough’s look will be familiar to fans of the Devonshire, too, or the nearby Audley, which Rogers also advised on. There is marmoleum flooring, dark, French polished mahogany joinery, anaglypta on the walls and ceilings, and plenty of burgundy and brass. “The building blocks are there for this to be an absolute smasher of a boozer,” says Rogers. “It’ll be finished to the same standards they would have had 100 years ago. To be honest I think it’s going to turn out better than both the Devonshire and the Audley. I think it’ll look the bollocks.”
