[http://www.applesandpearsbar.com/ bars in brick lane] - London is suddenly teeming with evening bar clubs offering anything from burlesque to live music as entertainment since the Licencing Act forces councils allowing bars to open later. How though may be the casual bar goer to select the wheat in the chaff? This is how Club Insider comes in providing unbiased reviews of what's hip and happening in London

Soho and the West End continues to be the location for celebrity driven bars. Although for your casual drinker to discover yourself rubbing shoulders having a celebrity you will need to get into the VIP area first. With the celebrity bars Punk and Kabaret remain the daddies even though the real celebrity action is in the clubs like Bijou, Chinawhite's Soho House and Movida. Around the drinks front Lab continues to be the cocktail daddy although comparative newcomers like Milk and Honey, CellarDoor and specialist regional bars like Floridita are nipping at its heels. Club Insider also likes every one of the Match Bars as well as the much derided hotel bars like The Lanesborough and Met bar. Overall though Westminster's notoriously tight licensing rules have effectively place the block on new late licenses in Soho stifling the scene especially with the chain bars continuing their onslaught gobbling up independent venues whenever they can. Furthermore a lot of Soho's bar activity has migrated towards the private members clubs like Soho House and Vanilla which makes it very much harder for the sporadic drinkers. Club Insider also only recommends Soho weekdays as at weekends its much too touristey as the bridge and tunnel brigade descend.

[http://www.applesandpearsbar.com/ brick lane bars] - East London is how the experience is around the new bar front with Shoreditch now Brick Lane because the place where well moneyed hipsters prefer to open to open new venues. Leaders of the pack must be Lounge Lover and the humongous (but 100% private) Shoreditch House however the like of Home, Last Days of Decadence and Hoxton Bar and Grill all get their own charm too. In fact along Brick Lane or Shoreditch High-street achingly cool bars are now any money a dozen. All of which amusingly has generated a back lash with a lot of hipsters now declaring their love for their tired old local within the flashy charms with the style bar(s) nearby. A honourable mention for Cargo and 93 Feet East too although are both really more music venues than bars. Anything missing? Well possibly other live music venues to begin with.

For North London read Camden with as much music pub clubs per square mile with there being style bars in Shoreditch and private members clubs in Soho. In the achingly cool Proud for the rather run down but ever popular Monarch Camden is the home from the indie bar (or in other words pub) club...... and nothing else. Actually that isn't quite true Camden and it is environs also house several great gastropubs (the Enterprise being the very best) and a number of style bars too that Fityfive is our favourite.

West London unfortunately suffers from the deadly RBKC (that is the Royal Borough of Kensington and Chelsea) disease who inside their wisdom have effectively place the kibosh on new night time venue openings. Club Insider however likes the electrical Cinema (part private) Paradise in Kensal Green and Notting Hill Arts Club.

[http://www.applesandpearsbar.com/ brick lane bars] - That leaves South London? A combination of laxer licensing laws and cheaper property prices has created a ripe environment for bar entrepreneurs wanting to try different things. Cue Lost Society and Lost Angel with their glitzy 30s themed accept d'cor and cocktails not forgetting The Loft in Clapham. Most of these venues have been picking up numerous bar awards from Periods as well as other magazines much to the annoyance of their North with the River London rivals. Recently Peacock Bar in Clapham Junction continues to be making waves having its clever mix of burlesque and cabaret early with retro 80s and 90s Djs later. Having found just about every award there is certainly for burlesque and cabaret Club Insider hears they're about to so something big in the West End very shortly. Watch this space.
