Pay attention, you're in London and there's partying to be done. And if there's one thing London is good for, it's places to bloody parrrrtay. It doesn't matter if you're looking for somewhere to go clubbing, a place to enjoy some cocktails or somewhere to dance until late, party bars in London are rife and raucous. Deceiving to the naked eye, what might start out as a cocktail or two will turn into a fully fledged night out with this little lot. See what you think of our places to party in London and the rest is history.




Barrio - Bars

A hot bed for South American sass and Latino inspired revelry, Barrio knocks up a cocktail list of flaming, exotic tipples and interiors to match making for one fun party bar in London. With a lively personality and a penchant for Mexican spirits, things tend to get out of hand in the best way possible here. Check in for cantina foods, punchy cocktails and a musical mix of worldly beats. 

Albert's Schloss - Soho

Guinness on draft and 2 other offers

Welcome to Albert's Schloss Soho, the ultimate Bavarian bier palace paying homage to Prince Albert's legacy. Immerse yourself in Alpine vibes with rustic wooden benches, stacked logs, and a menu that's all about that Bavarian flair.

Throughout the week, you can groove to live entertainment while feasting on schnitzel, currywurst, and signature burgers, all paired with a refreshing selection of beer and cocktails. Cheers to a royally good time.

Exale Brewery

Pints for £4 on selected beers on Thursdays (not bank hols or match days) and 2 other offers

Party hotspots don't come any cooler than Exhale Brewery. Previously a furniture factory and now a lit-up disco haven decked out with pastel-coloured cloud lights and neon signage, this haunt promises you a good night out. Visit on a Friday or Saturday to get down to DJs 'til late and throughout the week, sip on home-brewed goodness, margaritas and more.
