Barchick: Jameson Apartment

Whiskey galore: the Jameson bar
10 April 2012
Who's it for?

Vibe? First, modern-day speakeasy style, you have to go online to get the password. Then you need to look out for the doorman as you wander down Greek Street. Pick up the silver phone by the door, whisper the magic words and you're in. Upstairs you enter the Jameson Apartment, where Edward VII once met his mistresses and Oscar Wilde consorted with rent boys. It's been decked out Twenties-style and kitted out with a screening room. Each night's entertainment will vary, from film screenings to quizzes - you might even be greeted by the modern-day dandy Clayton Hartley for one of his rocking Candlelight Club parties.
Check the website for what's on when and put your name down to be sure to get in.

Drinks? If you don't like Jameson Whiskey then it's probably best for you to stay at home. The Caramel Manhattan is delicious if you have a sweet tooth, and the Emerald Presse is served with a kiwi fruit.

Cash or credit card? Cash - cocktails are all £7 - but card if, like BarChick, you try all seven.

Find it: Until October 27. Find the secret door at 39 Greek Street, W1 (jamesoncultfilmclub.com).
