England · NIGHTLIFE IN LONDON
This is the shortlist you would hand a friend flying in: 5 nightlife in London that earn the money, each with its price, its verdict and the one thing to know before you commit.
Join the London Party Pub Crawl at Zoo Bar & Club in Leicester Square, then visit up to four more bars and clubs. You get entry, free shots, drink discounts, photos, and lively hosts such as Liz or Liam. Arrive at 7:45pm for the full five-venue route, and bring valid photo ID and smart-casual clothes.
“Had an amazing time with friends. Got to meet people from all over the world. Great hosts with good energy.”
Start at Simmons Bar on Golden Square at 8:45 pm for a four to five-hour crawl through London nightlife. Expect several West End venues, free entry, discounted drinks, free shots, group photos, and hosts such as Will, Amy, or Pukka. The crowd can reach 120 people, so venue space and guide attention may vary.
“It was ok. Not much engagement from the hosts, and one of the places we went to felt somewhat like a prison. They had about 9 different security guards, some of which looked like ex convicts, roaming both the outside and the inside of the club. They also didn't allow hats. Which is fine, but the hosts don't inform on their post. So, it came as a surprise.”
Start at Belushi’s Camden at 7:30 pm and follow hosts such as Liz or Amy through five Camden bars and clubs. Your ticket includes free entry, welcome shots, drink discounts, and digital photos. Expect a social seven-hour night for adults 18 and older, with smart-casual dress and valid photo ID required.
“Amy was a great host. She was fun, talkative, and friendly. My cousin and I had a great time. I liked all the bars except Coyote Ugly. The staff was rude; it took forever to get a drink. Overall, I would recommend the tour to others.”
Start at 333 Old St at 7:30 pm for a four-and-a-half-hour Shoreditch night out. You will spend about an hour meeting the group, then visit several pubs and clubs with free entry, drink discounts, and shots. Hosts such as Ash, Jess, and Ali have been praised for keeping groups together and welcoming solo visitors.
“Definitely a must do for solo travelers! Our crawl guide, Ash, was amazing. She made sure everyone was taken care of and having a great time! I was able to meet people from all over the world and had great conversations and made friends, which is great to do as a solo traveler . I would highly recommend this bar crawl to anyone solo traveler or not.”
Join Ollie and a group of up to 15 for a two-hour East London night out starting at 9 pm near Old Street. Visit bars and clubs around Shoreditch, Hoxton, and Old Street, with included drinks and free entry at many stops. It suits solo visitors and groups who want a ready-made evening plan.
“Fantastic time with Ollie our guide, bubbly, energetic and thoughtful throughout the nightlife tour. Ideal for people to experience a new side of London!”
Start from a city, a castle or a pair of boots.
