So, this place is pretty much my metaphorical crack. Every single weekend I try not to come here in attempt to broaden my horizons with other clubs but I end up doing it every single time. "No… I swore I wouldn’t do it again.. okay maybe just a little bit". But in my (hazy, drunken) mind it seems like the best club out. The music is always good, it is always full of people of the right sorts (friendly, good looking - a rare mix), and I have never ever had a bad or even average night here. There is a basement downstairs where the "VIP" can go, or a room upstairs from the main dancefloor with a bar and couches to sit. All in all this club ticks all the boxes for me.
The other night I went to a live jazz gig at Creative Jazz Club, or CJC. The downstairs club at 1885 has a really nice feel to it, stylish, but with a rustic edge to it, like a swanky underground prohibition era club. Mosaic bar-top, comfy couches, thin rough strips of wood line the walls and bartenders wear smart white collars and waistcoats. The live music was incredible, each musician an impressive, highly skilled veteran of their own instrument. Piano, sax, double bass, drums, bass guitar and vocals. Drinks are not cheap, but the bar staff are experienced and well-trained and will make you something delicious. They have a great cocktail list and a good selection of wines at a range of prices. Keep an eye out for live jazz every Wednesday at this cool little venue.
