Shunt Bar and Club

An infamous bar that shut its doors in 2009 only to reopen in 2010, the same venue but with a new take - an arty, theatrical perspective.
The entrance is a tiny cubby hole in the ever popular London Bridge station, commuters completely surprised to see dozens of people queueing either side of [...]

The Light Bar

One of the most exclusive bars in central London is the prestigious Light bar of the St Martin’s Lane hotel. The bar is accessible by entering the hotel and striding forth up to the bar entrance, there is always some kind of guest list so preparation is essential, it doesn’t usually cost anything to [...]

Fifty London Club

Rumours invariably spell trouble for their supporters and insight into the world of “Fifties” had gone round many tables at which I had sat in venues far away with tales of riches, amazing times and wonderment.

24 London Club

Looking like a plush exclusive advertising agency from the outside during the day, 24:London transforms at night as kingly street fills with luxurious cars, well dressed trendy types and bouncers. The open doors to 24:London take us down a blue neon lit corridor into a large L shaped room beyond. With a capacity [...]

The Salisbury Pub

Quite surprisingly the Salisbury on St Martin’s Lane in the heart of London’s West End, is a gem of a pub. From the outside it looks like an old poky pub where drinkers come in off the street to quench thirsts with a cheap ale. In fact once you slide in past the [...]

Vanilla Bar

Sitting silently on the road outside, where even on a busy London Friday night, few souls are to be seen, sits the smart entrance to vanilla. Inside, a small room with a staircase down to the basement, silence is dominating. At the end of the steps another doorway into a very heavenly lounge. Purest [...]

The Crazy Bear Bar

The Crazy bear bar is one of my favourties in London. It is a well hidden bar combined with a small hotel and restaurant near Charlotte Street and Goodge Street station. From the name you might expect hordes of teddy bears inside but instead you get a multi tier exclusive bar. Starting [...]

The Glass Bar

Feb 2009 - Glass Bar is now Closed

Glass Bar is stationed in a renowned side street just by Piccadilly circus station. Outside small bushes and large bouncers guard the entrance behind them. There is a wonderful effect on entry of passing through glass doors and then being greeted by a thick White (or [...]
