See-and-be-seen dining rooms that become parties, or hide a dedicated club room in the building.

14 venues · London · Community

Dinner that is already a night out — or a dining room with a real club underneath it. Mayfair spectacle, West End cabaret, a City jazz parlour, one East counterweight. You dress up. The room is the point. Later, it gets louder.

These are not the napkin-wave family restaurants, and they are not members clubs. If the party is only for people who already have a card, it is not on this list. If there is no path from the table into a late room, it is not either.

They choose the rooms. We rank the journeys.
