The intimate 60s inspired night club, The Scotch of St James, was home to some of the most famous rock’n’roll royalty, seeing the likes of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who and many more go through the rustic black wooden door which to this day, still remains. Legend has it, it was also the backdrop for John Lennon and Yoko Ono's first encounter. The Scotch can also claim rights to an exclusive first performance of a young gentleman known as Jimi Hendrix, who on his first visit to the club decided to plug himself into the sound system and deliver an impromptu performance!

Just a stone’s throw away from the hustle and bustle of Piccadilly Circus and a few minutes’ walk from Green Park, The Scotch occupies a central, yet hidden location tucked away in Mason’s Yard.

The venue hosts renowned parties from birthdays to networking, makes for a unique filming and photoshoot location, and is a prestigious space for product launches and promotional events. Both floors can be adapted to meet specific event requirements, with options for private screenings, dry hire, Christmas events, Media/TV locations, group meetings, pre/post dinner events, live music showcase, team building events and pop ups.

The space is set across two floors with a total capacity of 200 standing, with an incredible sound system set up for all audio requirements and lighting to compliment any mood. The upper level boasts a well-stocked, attractively lit copper bar, accommodating up to 80 guests for a speak-easy standing reception.

Descend the staircase into the basement and you will find the decadent nightclub, with lavish seating and private tables surrounding the LED dance floor, DJ and stage area, accommodating up to 120 guests.

The Scotch team is dedicated to building on its illustrious heritage as a culturally significant meeting point, aiming to host the city's most relevant and exciting events and personalities in music, fashion, film and the arts.

    Probably one of the worst places. The bouncer outside was rude and cocky. Probably had to know him beforehand to enter. For a place that depends on customers it’s the worst experience. I’ve been many times in the past and it’s never been this bad. If you’re on a night out in London head anywhere but here.

    Disgusting behaviour from the lady at the door and the bouncers who follow what she does and say. Her comments and behaviour were disgusting and have already raised a complaint against her and all the staff. I have never encountered so much rudeness from staff at the door of a nightclub. I was allowed in with my friend but not my guy friend because they only wanted to let in more women into the club. The staff member (lady with long hair and ugly hat Naomi) at the door started making fun of us and making rude comments until I complained with her colleague who just stood there and looked at me not knowing what to say because he felt actually embarrassed with her disgusting behaviour. If you behave well and are there waiting to go in you should be treated with respect. But I can see that these people don’t know what it is to have good manners. Will be reporting her.
