This club is an old swinger - jazz has been played here for over a quarter of a century. The venue is well known on the jazz circuit, both in London and internationally, playing host to top-name musicians as well as up-and-coming artists. Entrance is reserved for members only, unless you happen to know the management or have booked a table for a meal. A typical basement jazz venue, the dim lighting and cosy table arrangement make for a perfect atmosphere. This relaxed club is perhaps not as renowned as Ronnie Scott's, but is definitely up there with 100 Club and Camden's Jazz CafĂ©. Food is Mediterranean, and there is a house stipulation that you can't consume alcohol unless you're a member or are having a meal. Membership costs £95 a year and, to become a member, you must prove that you have visited the club at least three times before.
