nightlife

Edgier than most London nightclubs, this West End romp occupies the former-digs on the infamous Stork Rooms with a two-floor restaurant and dance lounge. The club features a fancied Parisian décor with tufted-leather booths and hallucinogenic LED-encrusted dance floor likely responsible for so many staggering celebrities leaving the premises around 3am. If the space looks remarkably familiar in one's drunken haze, it's likely because the owners formerly operated Café de Paris in the mid-90s. While open to members and non-members alike, the paying kind are always taken first in line with a member's roster that includes fashion designer Alice Temperley and Nick Rhodes. For those dining, the menu is surprisingly evolved with truffle-sprinkled pastas, creamed lobster bisque and Beef Wellington. Afterwards, the dance floor can rid you of your calories with vintage tunes from the Ramones and New Order.

Tips

Schmooze your way into the nightclub by namedropping various celebrity friends, or better yet show-up with a budding supermodel or a member of Prince Harry’s posse.

Last Word
