Clapham is a young and vibrant area of London stereotyped as the home for recent grads, Aussies and rugby players. It’s therefore important for the young enthusiastic crowd to access a range of places to let off some steam, which leads naturally to some of the best bars and clubs in south London.

Did you know – Culture Trip now does bookable, small-group trips? Pick from authentic, immersive Epic Trips, compact and action-packed Mini Trips and sparkling, expansive Sailing Trips.

Adventure Bar

There are two Adventure Bars in Clapham but the one on the high street explodes at night relying on neon lights and heavy DJs to keep the place ablaze. It’s exposed walls and impressive lighting create cool vibes and their dancing bartenders will supply your cocktails in plastic red cups and allow you to create shapes of your own.

This modest looking bar just a short walk from Clapham Junction station is very easy to walk past, but it would be a cocktail crime to do so. Once you put a foot through the door you transport into a distant land filled with great vibes, random plants from every angle and amazing cocktails. The best room is in the Powder Keg Diplomacy is designed like an indoor veranda allowing natural light to shine down on their classy furniture. Be sure to try their Henry Martini Rifle for the ultimate gin satisfaction.
