St Jerome’s & Shit Town
Tiny St Jerome’s does great coffee and toasties all day for the students that flock here. Come sundown, its time for longnecks and beats in the cloistered back alley. It’s also time for Shit Town, its twisted next-door sister, to open the door (actually a hole in the wall). Here the 80s crack-house aesthetic is fully realised and the music is loud and left-field.

Blue Diamond
This ‘social salon and cabaret’ is ostensibly a private club, but nonmembers do make it in, especially on Thursday and Sunday nights. It’s a dark, dramatic space but the main attraction is the view; it’s as good as it gets this side of the Rainbow Room. There’s live entertainment from 10.30pm Friday to Sunday, with live soul and funk acts taking the stage.

Ffour
This stark all-nighter is also popular earlier with Friday after-work drinkers, when entry is free and drinks specials drown out the week that was. It’s your basic garden-variety club; each night brings a different crowd-pleasing flavour, from R&B through to Asian cocktail night to commercial house. Join gangs of girlfriends and student types on a big night out.

The Greville
Time can easily melt away when you're ensconced in the surrealist décor of The Greville (formerly the Candy Bar) that harks back to Greville St's halcyon clubland heyday. A café by day, the DJs and drag queens move in of an evening. Come to watch the balls drop at drag bingo on a Monday night; Sunday is gay and lesbian night.
