When you take a walk around the streets of London you will be hit by very many pubs with weird London style names such as “The Dog and Duck”. Most of the pubs in London have been created with an authentic old London style pub style and they have been made in chains so that they can market themselves to Tourist as authentic London pubs from the drinks to the look of the pubs.

One of the things that make it very easy to know if you are in the right place is the fact that every place that you go in London has a very different vibe from the last and every place has a vibe of its own.
You will find that the clubs range from VIP know what to wear clubs to just normal student nights London clubs that are more relaxed and done to earth but not in all senses as all the clubs have been known to be very high-en. Many of the clubs play all kinds of music like a mix so to say and you can be able to get this kinds of clubs all over but there are others which have separated each type of music for its own time of the day or its own day of the week such that Tuesday is for Rock Friday Is for Techno and so forth. If your main purpose in London is for celebrity spotting then you want to dress well, smell good and make your way over to the Project or Cirque Du Soir in Soho one of the finest clubs in the whole of London. This is the same place you will be able to find gay clubs and pubs.
