Some bars are just too full of themselves… too cool, or just too pretentious to have a really good time. This is not one of them. This is a bar where they know how to party – and that’s just the staff. But you know what? It’s those fun loving staff that really make a difference when you want to let your hair down. At the Adventure Bar in Covent garden the team are always ready to get up, get the crowd going and get juggling with the cocktails. Their enthusiasm is catching – and ensures the party starts early and keeps on going.

Brilliantly squeezed into a tunnel like basement location with trendy exposed brickwork, there’s always room for larger groups to reserve space at one end of the bar. There’s also room to dance to a mix of floor filling favourites plus all the cocktails and drinks you could want. The cocktails in particular get a real thumbs up from the happy clientele. Don’t forget the happy hour – which does exactly what it says on the box – gets everyone happy and here early in the evening. And from there things can only get better.

One in a group of eight fun loving London bars, Grand Union Farringdon is one of the most central and lays claim to be the jewel in the crown of the chain. And who are we to disagree?

The place looks opulent and sophisticated. Grand gilded frames adorn the paintings that dot the walls. Heavy hanging, tasseled velvet curtains drape themselves decadently to the floor. Antique furniture and mirrors add to the overall effect. But don’t be fooled, or put off. This is no museum or venerable gentleman’s club. This is a fun time venue that really gets jumping on the weekend when the resident DJs start doing their thing.

The clientele gives a good vibe too. They’re just here to have fun, not to pose or preen… well, not all of them anyway. Instead they’re here to dive into some great drinks – from well-made cocktails to the great selection of beers and wine. And, if they choose to soak it up with some food, there’s a fulfilling choice of burgers, pizzas, ribs and snacks to tuck into.

Want some space for your party…? Try to book one of the sought after booths for the VIP touch.

How does this sound for a party venue…?

An opulent cocktail bar… a terrific restaurant… a fun, friendly and fizzing club. Now, how about some flamingo’s called Bill, Ben, Splosh and Pecks (seriously)? Or a choice of Spanish, Tudor and English themed gardens to revel in?

How about setting it all in a sprawling 1.5 acres of gardens with proper oak and fruit trees and a flowing stream full of fish? And how about putting all that 100 feet up in the air on top of the Old Derry and Tom’s department store on High Street Kensington?

Now, that’s a recipe for a great party. But all you party lovers out there, whether you want a party just for two or a big all singing, all dancing shindig, don’t forget to book as you won’t get in unless you’re on the guest list.

If you just want to visit the amazing gardens they are open to the public free of charge during the day. Just check beforehand to make sure there’s not a wedding or corporate party going on, as it is, unsurprisingly, a very popular venue.

Remember when you were a kid? You had to ‘do’ something for a party. Go-karting, mini-golf, the cinema… or even bowling which had the added advantage of being weather proof!

And that’s what makes the All Star Lanes in Holborn such a great party venue… eat, drink, be merry, invite your classmates (sorry mates) and have a laugh as you try to get a strike but end up in the gutter (literally and metaphorically).

There are 4 lanes in the main hall and a bar tucked away where a DJ get’s going at the weekends. It’s all decked out in a cool retro style that adds a certain something to the bowling experience. Fancy some space for your party, as well as some bowling? Then book the private room with two lanes, a cocktail bar, karaoke and waiter service.

Remember, at weekends the lanes are reserved for diners in the restaurant, so if you want to bowl you’ve got to eat… and it’s one lane, one game.

Other venues are also available in Brick Lane and Bayswater
