Scala

Small intimate venue and top concert location. They do great club nights as well as small gigs. Easily reachable as it is in the heart of Kings X!!! Many good nights have been spent there!

I knew this place as an all-night cinema, back in the 80s. Now it’s a club/ live music venue. Security is pretty tight, along with a few other London venues. You need photo ID, have your picture taken, and unload your pockets. Venue itself is great, with several different areas and bar-prices reasonable for a Central London venue.

Great medium sized venue with good view all around. Only reason its not 5 star is that there are LOADS of staircases in different places going to different levels and you can get quite confused/lost in them. Also, lots of beer taps were empty on the two nights I visited last week so drink choice was rather limited.

Scala isn’t the best place. It’s small and the sound quality isn’t so great. It’s also super old in my opinion. But I still had fun at Ollie Wride Concert. The concert was amazing!

A good medium sized venue in central London with pubs and cozy restaurants near by.

Personally, one of the bouncers there was unnecessarily loud and aggressive, sort of micro managing and felt a bit like going through airport security, like it’s not that srs come on, just ruins the vibe going into the event.

The cloakroom is like right next to the bar which makes queuing tricky and had to wait for like half an hour for drinks before the show began and an hour to get jacket after the show.

also, not many choices for drinks and the staircases can be a problem if you’re too tipsy or haven’t worked out in a while
