Hidden away down some stairs, away from the ticket touts and the West End traffic lies the Covent Garden Cocktail Club (formerly London Cocktail Club). The low lighting and comfy sofas remind you of a gentleman's club, only without the rules. This is a dark, delicious den you might never want to leave. Access is limited as it's the official Member's bar of the Arts Theatre Westend, but just hit up the website & we have faith you'll find a way in.

The barmen are talented, they know and love their cocktails – they may even treat you to some flaring. And if you flirt enough you might get a free shot. It’s always pretty busy, and with an eclectic playlist on the go you will definitely be dancing at some point. BarChick flew solo, but left with plenty of friends, that's the vibe here. Bar snacks are available, but you're not gonna write home about them, but that's not what you’re here for is it?
