Spear’s Review
When Robin Birley returned to clubland in 2012, expectations – and intrigue – were high, including at Spear’s. The second son of the legendary Mark Birley, the old Etonian may not have had the chance to run his father’s clubs (which were sold to Richard Caring in 2007) but it soon became clear he’d been paying attention. His Mayfair venture, 5 Hertford Street, has been a sensation.
Rather than just a hang-out for celebrities and socialites, regulars say the club has followed in the footsteps of Mark Birley’s celebrated Annabel’s in becoming a place where meetings of real consequence are facilitated and conducted. Membership, as you might expect, remains strictly vetted.
