Drinking And Dancing In London

We get it, one minute you're out with friends sipping G&Ts on some rooftop bar and then someone suggests going out out... Next thing you know you're at the front of a forty-minute queue for an underground hipster haunt, having lost your buzz and already thinking about those post-night-out chips and bed. Whether you're a hip-shaker, bump'n'grinder, or more likely to be found dusting off those moves under the disco ball, read on for London's best spots to drink and dance.

Blind Spot

Nestled in the beating heart of London's Leicester Square, Bling Spot is a smooth, sultry cocktail bar that offers guests a serene location to sit back and unwind with top-notch cocktails. With a flavoursome arsenal of spices, fresh fruits and international spirits, and a stunning line-up of resident DJs filling the air with thudding bass and trembling melodies, you'll struggle to find a better central London venue to dance the night away in.

Aquum

Birthday Package and 3 other offers

With three bars to choose from, keep the drinks flowing and that body popping all night long. Throw funky shapes in the basement bar, get your freak on in the main terrace area or settle down for a sophisticated sip in the split-level VIP lounge. With great entertainment too, you can even enjoy the likes of burlesque performance, guest DJs and fire-eating for a stellar night out on the town.

Salsa! Soho

Bringing a Central and South American culture experience into the heart of London, Salsa! Soho has a party vibe that is contagious and as non-pretentious as they come. With Salsa lessons, themed nights and a constant carnival feeling, this place will keep you coming back for more. For those needing refreshment between dances, or perhaps some Dutch courage, the fishbowls are generous and the happy hours extensive.

Exale Brewery

Core for £4 on selected core pints. Thursdays and Sundays (not bank hols) and 1 other offer

If you're looking for somewhere to let your hair down in East London then hit up Exale Brewery, a characterful converted old furniture factory, only a moment from Blackhorse Road Station. Here you will find DJs spinning tunes 'til late on Fridays and Saturdays, plus a large mix of craft concoctions to sip on underneath pink, puffy cloud lights and neon signage.

Studio38.Club

Hosting regular events at fab venues like Shanghai Nightclub and The Vanguard starting at just £12 a pop, Studio38.The club promises groovy daytime clubbing experiences. Get ready to groove to dance floor fillers, pop bangers, and forgotten favourites from the 80s & 90s, all while wearing your shiniest and sparkliest outfits, of course.
