BARCHICK SAYS

This is the ultimate Soho bar for a boogie, plus you’ll find it between two sex shops (why not buy a French maid's outfit and change in the loos). Mexican food is served upstairs, but it’s all about the Pink Chihuahua (sometimes called Dick’s Bar) down below - this is where it gets kinda loco. If you can make it down the ladder-like staircase without breaking your leg, then you’re in for a treat. This late-night bar really kicks off. The music is fun, and even the most modest of mates will be dancing on the table before closing time at 3am.

Make sure you're part of The Pink Chihuahua club to avoid entry issues - ask the bartenders or check out the website before you go. The bar was created and run by the legend that was Dick Bradsell. The team have followed in his footsteps, and certainly know how to mix a decent drink, plus they have a sick cocktail menu laid out like a retro kid's book. Some people say they serve the best Espresso Martini in London (Dick created it, after all). It was Margarita mayhem when we visited, and the crowd was hot. It's also a firm favourite of the bartender crowd, so expect to rub shoulders with some of our Most Wanted talent if you stay til the early hours. 

You’ll come back again and again - just go easy on the mezcal or you’ll never make it back up the stairs.
