Fiesta Havana

18 and over / 20s / 30s / Bar Food

Party Earth Review For a taste of Cuba in London, patrons need look no further than Fiesta Havana, a place where Hemingway himself might have been a regular when he was homesick for Havana. Well, twenty-something Hemingway, anyway. The venue is awash in warm, tropical colors, fake stone patterns, and kitschy fake plants, as well as walls ... more

Although in recent years many London drinking spots have started raising the bar in regards to admission age, plenty of the best night haunts in this city are 18 and over venues.

Whether a young partier fresh on the social scene or a more experienced reveler, London 18 and over clubs are some of the city’s best destinations. Ranging from casual cocktail affairs to rowdy student beer fests, there are numerous options.

Eclipse is chic and discreet with a nondescript façade. But what lies beyond the entrance is a sophisticated watering hole that seamlessly syncs up with the suave allure of the Chelsea area. With lush sofas, sushi platters, and watermelon martinis, one can’t get much hipper than this hotspot.

More casual 18 and over London carousers head to The Alibi, a gritty urban locale that evokes notions of The Clash and punk rock, with aged band posters and chipped paint creating an overall ambiance that’s effortlessly cool. Trendy, bohemian, and alternative, this joint hosts everything from movie nights to karaoke, and is never too hard on the purse strings.
