Bars/Clubs near Leicester Square

Hello everyone!

I really need some advice please please please! Im trying to organise my 18th Birthday Party in December. Ive booked a restaurant in Leicester Square but i'd like to go to a bar or club afterwards. Im looking for something relatively cheap coz we're all on a budget and sumwhere that will let us in because only half the group will be 18 at the time. We just want to have a good time and a dance. Party Classics would be great but it doesn't really matter. Somewhere with a gd atmosphere! Please help me! Thank You.

I would suggest the nightclub - "EQUINOX" which is situated in Leicester Square, because it has is reasonably priced and is your average london nightclub. If you wanna experience a bit of class on the other hand..."TANTRA" situated in KINGLY STREET, SOHO, W1 is the place! It aint cheap but then the finer things in life aren't, and believe me it is worth the money, u will often see stars in this place and the food is excellent...10/10 every time. Its your call. Asher

Believe it or not I normally do post quicker than this, but unfortunatly I have a touch of the flu at the moment Either way I can only hope that this message reaches you in time so as to alert you to the fact that Equinox in Leicester Square is now closed for renovation to be reopened as a Casino.

My recommendation for a great 18th Birthday bash would be to have a look at Cafe de Paris on Coventry Street just at the top of Leicester Square. It's a very classy and prestigious venue with a background of hosting many a glamourous night including the MTV Base Lounge. The positive point you may find is that the door is not as fussy towards guests as some of the more exclusive clubs in W1, in the sense that they will let in well dressed 18 year olds (although not too sure if this applies to male guests). For the record, the cream of the crop in London's west end clubs are now members and guestlist only meaning you will need to book in advance so be sure to beat the queues and give Cafe De Paris a call direct to book guestlist.

Just ask if you want to know about any other clubs

P.S. Cafe De Paris can be quite steep so if you are looking for somewhere cheaper check out Sound at http://www.allinlondon.co.uk/clubs_bars/venue-2767.php

As for getting in, your friends will need to stay away, sorry but save yourself the risk, most clubs in the area now ask for ID from anyone looking around 21 even if the club is over 18's
