15 Best Late-Night Bars In London That Won’t Make You Hate Yourself - London - The Infatuation

"Closing time: 1am Sunday to Wednesday, 3am Thursday to Saturday Sometimes we like to cosplay as Emma Stone in La La Land and have romantic epiphanies while a jazz band plays. This busy basement spot in Shoreditch is ideal for doing exactly that. It has live music, swinging speakeasy swagger, and a brooding vintage aesthetic that will suit promising date nights and post-pub frivolity. Some of the excellent cocktails are topped with things like candy floss but we’ll forgive them because they make one of the best classic boulevardiers in town. Their slightly more polished Soho sibling keeps similar nocturnal hours." - jake missing, heidi lauth beasley
