Hello, I'm on a mission to visit and rate every pub, club and bar in the UK. I know what your thinking but don't worry- i've got an artificial liver on standby.

Club 49 (Greek Street - London)

Club 49

When wandering around Soho at 1am on a Saturday night it is never advisable to just wander into a place. Naturally ticket-tout style reps from various clubs fill the streets in an attempt to pull the punters at a cut price that tickets on the door. Advertised at £8 a ticket this club can be entered from about £3 each. (Which is what we paid) The Event manager herself was some kind of dragon figure and the establishment within was overcrowded, over expensive, under stocked (apparently no Vodka on our visit) and smaller than my thumb-nail. Quite literally the place is a shoebox of a room with mirrors and loud Rnb. Drinks cost from £7 upwards and there is a downstairs if you fancy being grabbed by 40+ randy men.(You must walk this guantlet to reach the toilets).

Overall it is a complete rip off, not a place to end up in. It felt like an old man pub had just emptied down the road and filled this seedy establishment. There is a world in Soho of better places so just avoid this one! 2/10
