The Scotch

Since its inception in 1965, the Scotch Of St James nightclub in London has consistently maintained its reputation as a cutting-edge and fashionable establishment. After a temporary closure in the 1980s, the venue underwent a meticulous restoration in 2012, blending elements of its 1960s origins with contemporary touches, paying homage to its distinctive heritage and style.

Nestled behind an unassuming door in Mason’s Yard, the Scotch Of St. James offers an intimate and exclusive ambience. However, its unassuming exterior belies the vibrant interior. Inside, guests encounter a fully stocked bar, state-of-the-art sound and lighting systems, and a trendy crowd comprising London’s chicest individuals. The ground floor exudes a cosy atmosphere, ideal for unwinding, enjoying drinks, and immersing oneself in the venue’s rich history showcased on its walls.

The true heartbeat of the club resides in the basement. Its industrial aesthetics provide a raw and minimalist backdrop renowned among music enthusiasts for its outstanding live acoustics. The infectious beats reverberate through the space, accommodating an array of music genres, including rock, pop, performances by world-class DJs, and hip-hop.

As a haven for celebrity musicians spanning various genres, the Scotch Of St James boasts a storied legacy. It witnessed Jimi Hendrix’s debut UK performance and welcomed iconic acts such as The Beatles and The Rolling Stones. Even in contemporary times, it remains a magnet for celebrities, drawing the likes of Kate Moss, Cara Delevingne, and Georgia Jagger.
