The Oscar Wilde Bar is a lovely spot for high tea in the heart of London. I was running a bit…read morebehind schedule (*schedule* like how the Brits say it), about 30 minutes late, due to some poor planning and a bit of traffic. The restaurant called me and I returned their call to let them know I was still on my way. I felt like a total jerk for arriving so late, but the staff was incredibly welcoming. I decided to go solo for high tea, wanting to treat myself. They found me the perfect table where I could people-watch and enjoy the piano music from a comfortable distance. This high tea room is absolutely stunning and was made to be photographed. My waiter was incredibly patient and didn't judge me when I was taking pictures. In fact, he said that's what this room is meant for. There were a wide variety of teas, and I think the teas were the best part of the experience. The pastries were also delicious, but I didn't love any of the finger sandwiches. I'll definitely be back soon. Thanks for being so gracious despite my tardiness!

If you are a group of more than 4 just book onto 2 tables....under that ceiling, ok. Late night jazz can cost as little as £10. A select traditional menu of cocktail will bring the ticket price up to £20+ per head. I wasn't blown away by mine. Really enjoyed Jay Rayner's anecdotes (Yes Clare Raynor, Agony Aunt's son) he's a food expert, piano playing sex columnist and it's such an intimate space, he came on up and said hello to us, a jovial chap. The ice water is a lot warmer than the staff there. It's in the former Atlantic Bar venue, but Crazy Coqs and Zedels Brasserie have definitely had a make over. Not sure if we got to the American Bar there, that's supposed to be good. The street cafe part, does feel like I'm in the one in St Germain when back in Paris. Not eaten at Zedels but it can be as cheap as £8.50 for 2 course steak and frites. However if you want to eat there in a large group before a concert at the Crazy Coqs book it way in advance before your jazz tickets Sod the staff. Look forward to my next visit under that mirrored ceiling. Bon appetite!

If seats are available and you pay tenner, you can gain access. The bar is tiny--any more than three dozen folks will be standing room only. Expect to share a table with others, if you arrive as a couple. The smoked old fashioneds are some of the finest I've ever had. Served in a bell jar filled with smoke, the taste is spectacular. The live music is good and doesn't detract from the conversation. Bring a date and enjoy this stylish, romantic spot.

On a busy night expect it to feel cluttered but when you've had a couple of drinks and the live music has begun it really doesn't matter. Dance the night away! I saw there, one of the best blues bands, the lead singer, a lovely girl, had an amazing voice that sent goose bumps everywhere. And for the life of me I cannot remember their name and have been trying to find out ever since. We went there with eight friends of mine from uni and we were fortunate to sit on the big round table in one of the subsidiary rooms. Really intimate and private space, it was like going to someone's basement (paying a fiver) and having a private gig. Can get chilly in the round table room so have a light sweater on you.

UnCorked is London's newest jazz theatre company, and our city's best kept secret. Combining…read moreimmersive theatre with jazz cabaret dance, the company specializes in breaking the fourth wall between the performers and their audience, challenging them to observe private acts that are usually left behind closed doors. By immersing the performance in and amongst the audience, characters entice those around them to follow their story, encouraging the audience to choose their own adventure. UnCorked is defined by a cast of authentically powerful entertainers. Together they are dedicated to creating captivating productions. They are consistently pushing the social and creative boundaries of jazz and live theatre, leaving their audience feeling nothing short of alive. I went along to their production "How to Solve a Problem Like Murder" which was held in the pub Paradise By Way Of Kensal Green. The event was being held upstairs of the establishment. Me and my friend was handed a envelope with a mask to wear, pen, suspect page and note page. We was the both led up the stairs by a boy and girl (well two adults pretending to be children) and then we entered a room where there was some performing half naked sexy dancing ladies who were part of the whole act / story. I cant say much about the story as don't want to give anything away but basically there is affairs going on between the whole group of woman and the men so many arguments happen but the best part was that the dancing that the ladies and men do throughout the show there was about 6 different dances throughout the night. The boy and girl guides you to important pieces of info throughout the night and also whilst going around listening and watching the acting taking place you have to be quite which is good as does not spoil what is going on and can take in more what is going on. Also the difference with this murder mystery is that you had to solve who was going to be murdered and who was the killer so unique in that respect. I got the killer right and my friend got who would be murdered correctly. However even though we got them right we did not get a prize just a slip of paper with a saying on it so that was a tad disappointing and also we could not even keep the masks which i think is quite unhygienic to give back for them to reuse again and its not even like the masks were expensive they were cheap. However well worth the money as the acting by all was superb and a great plot the best murder mystery I have ever done and so different. So don't miss out and book your murder mystery with Uncorked productions today. Tickets have already sold out for most dates so get booking fast.
