Public

The buzz around Public in recent months has made this King's Road club notorious. Newspaper reports of Prince Harry frolicking inside may have something to do with this, I won't lie.

Public certainly has an exclusive reputation and, having forgotten to put ourselves on a guest list before arrival, we were scared of facing a humiliating dismissal in front of the entire queue.

As it turned out, the door-bitch was actually pretty friendly and the bouncer laughed amiably along with us as our ID's, complete with tragic photos of us aged 17, flashed up on the high-tech machine they use to weed-out the underage crowd.

Inside, the decor is predictably trendy and flash, the dance floor surprisingly spacious and the bathrooms well lit (imperative, as all female attendees would agree). The inside/outside smoking area is also a great touch, although more benches wouldn't go amiss to give high heel wearers some respite.

All in all, a stylish and fun venue that lives up to the hype.
