What it lacks in size it compensates for in its mighty happy hour deals; Jack's Shack is a lively bar with a nautical theme, including buoys dangling from the ceiling and even Jack, himself swinging in to say hi. If you've got a big night planned, tuck into one of their burgers to line your stomach.
A quirky Great Eastern Street hideaway doused in faded circus glamour, there's always something fun to try at Trapeze. Hit the ground floor if it's punchy cocktails and tasty sharing platters you're after, or take it to the basement where the underground sound of deep house takes hold every weekend.
Escape the East London metropolis and head to the North African-themed Casa Blue. Here you'll find food platters that are perfect for sharing, while the bar offers delicious cocktails in bijou yet charming surroundings, while the party vibes are carefully nurtured by the funky afrobeat tracks on the speakers.
Located on a stretch of Old Street, The Gibson is movie-star magic. The tiny bar may only be one room but the night promises endless surprises, as a live piano player takes to the keys every night and the bar's signature concoctions use ingredients from all corners of the world - fried worms anyone?
A melting pot where Brazilian beach bar meats London bloc party, Floripa assures one of the best party atmospheres in east London. Chow down on Brazilian street food, drain an ice cold caipirinha and soak in the vibrant decor, with DJs at the weekends and frequent live performers to round things off.
