The Player

Despite being situated in the heart of Soho, this great venue is tucked away from the eyes of the masses with an unassuming entrance. It would be just as easy to walk past without noticing save for the door host generally venturing occasionally past the entrance.

Upon entering, one steps into a cosy lounge cum club drinking den open until 2am on weekends with patrons generally hailing from the art media and music industries. The DJ provides background music early on during the evening but eventually has almost everyone grooving to his beat.

Drinks are reasonably priced and there's an extensive list of cocktails to ensure that you don't step outside with a slightly less than sober smile. A must for bar-o-philes.

Note: the door has a guestlist policy.
