1. An underground haunt for a New Year's Eve party: Dial8 at 13 Chateau Denmark
Soho, London
Thirteen, located in Chateau Denmark on Denmark Street, just around the corner from Tottenham Court Road, operates as a cocktail bar known for its bespoke cocktails and Japanese-inspired small plates, but what only a select few know is that Thirteen has a basement cocktail bar known as Dial8. It's decadent, lush, and dark, dimly lit with a half-moon bar, plush sofas, and armchairs. With a capacity of 50 standing, Dial8 is a central, gothic, and elegant setting for an exclusive New Year's Eve party in London.
