Lafayette

Opened in March 2020, this new, two-floored, 600-capacity music and nightlife venue in King’s Cross is run by Ben Lovett, who also owns London Bridge venue Omeara. The impressive main space has a tall stage for performances, but with lights down low it’s easy to imagine it running as a club – there’s a 4am licence on Friday and Saturday. On site you’ll also find a cocktail bar called Streetwater, which aims to become a global cocktail destination along the lines of NYC’s The Dead Rabbit, and The Courtyard, a street food space covered by a ceiling of falling greenery.
