Archy, famous in the ’80s and ’90s, has reappeared under new management. Two fl oors and seven bars—where you’ll fi nd electronic music playing downstairs; pop, rock and dance upstairs. Columns, painted ceilings, velvet armchairs and a huge chandelier create a classic look. International cuisine is served in the restaurant until midnight when the space becomes a VIP area. There’s something different each night, from backgammon to live music.

The Buddha serves an over-30s crowd, and is a two-fl oor space dedicated to the magic of the Far East. Hundreds of buddhas, thousands of candles and original Balinese paintings decorate the club. Enjoy a drink at one of the huge bars, listen to disco or ’80s hits, or dine from the choice of Japanese, Thai, Vietnamese or Philippine menus.
