Luxury has never been so out of the way or so drunkard as the night I recall drinking at this bar. Here’s the scoop, my mum had got married for the second time and the after party was here. needless to say doing shots of sambuca with your girlfriend on [...]

Walkabout

A cold multi-coloured hallway awaits you. With drinks costing a good 50p more a pint than anywhere else close by frowned upon by indie music and poor quality disco lighting.

A rather happening ‘Bassy’ small club next to Kings Cross station masquerades by day as perhaps a derelict shop and at night falls victim to pumping chill-out and slow dance beats. You enter to the corner of a rounded bar with leather couches dotted about. The DJ sits in a booth opposite the bar [...]
