  • Bar Rumba

     
  • Bar Rumba says it's a fave with Londoners, and we believe it. Open since 1993 but still packing them in, this West End basement venue puts on some of the most esteemed sessions in town. Still focusing on cool urban sounds, Barrio Latino fires up every Tuesday with a salsa class followed by heavy reggaeton, and Movement is the capital's longest-running junglist jam on Thursdays. Fridays pull in a cool crowd for hip hop slam Front To Back.

    I went to bar rumba on Friday 2nd Oct. It was advertised as a UK Funky night where women got in free... it cost 10 pounds to get in and not 1 UK Funky song was played the whole night. There were lots of disappointed people.
