Thursday is the new Friday in Mayfair, and it has been for years. Nearly every club opens its doors, the energy is high, and the crowd is a mix of locals starting their weekend early and international visitors making the most of London. Thursday nights often have the best atmosphere because the crowd is genuinely up for it, not just going through the motions.
Our Thursday Recommendation
Thursday is the sweet spot. Reign London opens for shows and bottle service. For pure party energy, BEAT London is the go-to on the select Thursdays it opens, and The Box is open for something more theatrical. Maddox is the best dinner-to-dance option, Dear Darling suits a cocktail-led night, and Selene is a refined choice for house music and cocktails. Scotch also opens on Thursdays, as well as Friday and Saturday. Rumour and 99 Regent Street are open too, from 11pm to 4am.
