Scotch of St James

The Scotch of St James is an atmospheric venue with a touch of highland spirit to it. Available for private hire, it is a great spot for filming and photography shoots which require a night club scene, a private members club look or a bar scene. Use of the full nightclub set up is also an option. Renowned as the preferred playground for just about every major music personality of the swinging 60's the club famously played host to a then unknown Jimi Hendrix's first impromptu gig on arrival in England in 1966. More than twenty years after it last opened its doors, The Scotch was restored in January of 2012 and re-launched in March of 2014 after an eight month partnership with Le Baron in 2013. The current Scotch team is dedicated to building on its illustrious heritage as a culturally significant meeting point, aiming to host the city's most relevant and exciting events and personalities in music, fashion, film and the arts.
