London - Nightlife - Clubs
Meh.......
Ended up here last night after an engagement party just down the road in Apartment 195. Mamilanji is a classic swanky, OTT, south ken trust fund brigade nightclub. £20 to get in and you can expect to hear "If you're not on the guest list, you're not coming in" from most of the doormen. Once we finally talked ourselves in, we made our way to the bar. 2 bottles of beer and a vodka and coke - £20 please. Does everything in this place cost 20 bloody quid!? And don't even think about ordering cocktails. I gazed across the bar to see one of my friends having a "head in hands moment" as the barman handed him 35 pence change from his crisp fifty pound note.
Ok, you get it. It's expensive. So what are the good bits?
- Nice roof terrace with heaters during the winter
- Some half decent live music in the upstairs bar on friday's
- Seats! Even though we came in at midnight we could still find a seat which was nice.
- Pretty people (if that's what blows your hair back)
If you read my reviews, you will know this is not my kind of place. But i guess it might be some peoples cup of tea. I won't be going back in a hurry and i like to think that even if i won the lottery or discovered some hidden trust fund, i still wouldn't hang out here.
