Description:
SOHO. With some sleuthing, you might deduce that this basement bar is one of Soho's best places to down cocktails and rub shoulders – especially if you want to escape touristy watering holes. After operating for years as a private club, Player is now open to all, until 11pm or so on Fridays and Saturdays, when it becomes private again. Agent 007 would fit well in these sleek digs and be pleased to discover so many deliciously potent cocktails. TUBE: Tottenham Court Road

Hours:
Mon-Wed 5:30pm-Midnight; Thu-Fri 5:30pm-1am; Sat 7pm-1am
