 The styling

The Peacock is as effortlessly stylish as it is comfortable paying
homage to retro, baroque, rococo and any other style we like. Think
Ercol 1950s table nests perched next to Georgian chaise longues with
50's Scandinavian modular sofas around a 60's G Plan Hi -Fi console.
All this set in a Victorian drawing room with a Chesterfield fronted
horseshoe bar, stunning all glass spirits display with a huge golden
peacock at the front door to greet you and a Victorian pulpit at the
back of the bar for our Djs to preach from. We break all rules so maybe
it should not work but it just does. The Peacock changes with the
seasons too beginning the day as a café before turning into a luxurious
bar & finally a club late night Friday Saturdays. All in all making
us the perfect place for your occasion whether it's a lazy morning
coffee, Sunday lunch, afternoon tea, a swift drink after work or a full
on night out.
See for yourself on the Gallery page (more pictures coming soon)

 

The café (opening mid March)

The Peacock starts the day early as a café with dazzling array of
coffees, teas, freshly squeezed juices and snacks to perk you up. Try
our  Honeypresso - 4 shots of espresso sweetened  with fresh honey -
liquid ecstasy so good it should be made illegal (and probably will
be). Relax a while in one of our comfy sofas with a complimentary paper
(broadsheets only except The Sun of course) and enjoy a Fruitopia -
freshly squeezed mango and banana with a touch of grapefruit to give it
that je ne sais quoi. Or maybe use our free WI-FI to catch up with
friends online. At lunchtime enjoy a delicious crab & caviar Panini
washed down with a Rasberry Coulis perhaps. Or come in for afternoon
tea and try some of our home made cucumber sandwiches (no crusts of
course) scones, jam & Devonshire clotted cream. Oh and we have a
exquisite range of home made cakes & tarts too -  definitely not
for those on a diet! With board games (think Monopoly, Scrabble and
Snakes & Ladders) we are the perfect option for ladies that do
lunch but need to keep children occupied too.
See the Cafe page for more details.

 

The bar

After 5pm we metamorphosize into a luxurious bar with a drinks
selection to die for. As well as those so-boring standard beers &
spirits we boast London's widest range of Belgian fruit beers on tap
and in bottles with over 25 different flavours. Classics such as the
draught Strawberry Fruli Fruit Beer are complemented by more exotic
flavours from mango through to chocolate via banana and lemon - come
and taste for yourself. On the spirits side we have an exclusive range
of Monastic Meads brewed by monks in Suffolk - the choice of Kings
since William the Conqueror but now available to non Royalty too! We
also stock the full range of Geneva flavoured Gins - all thirty of
them! On a more modern tip we boast a world class cocktail and wine
list designed by master mixologist Emiliiano Casciello of Oxo Tower and
Atlantic Bar & Grill fame, including his signature Taj Mahal - a
Cosmopolitan with an Eastern Twist. On the food side our menu perfectly
complements our drinks whether it's a party platter or Sunday roast you
choose.
See our Food and Drinks pages for more details.

 

The club at the weekend

We have not skimped on the entertainment either, bringing you the
finest pole, burlesque and cabaret  performances plus some great Djing
late into the night.
On Fridays from 9pm-2am we have "Oh What a Lovely Recession"
with legendary DJ / Impresario Paul Necklace of Living fame bringing
you the best and the worst of 80s, 90s, 00s - dance away the recession
blues to the soundtrack of your life.
On Saturdays from 9pm-2am we bring you "It's a Party"
with the wonderful Joe Egg and Nervous Stephen behind the controls for
more 80s, 90s, 00s treats just like a house warming party from many
years ago. With carriages at 2.30am from our dedicated cab rank we are
sure you will leave fully satisfied.
Keep an eye on our Whats On page for details of some suprise guest DJs! 

 

The cabaret, burlesque and polesque performances

But do come early as every Friday and Saturday we have two pole,
cabaret or burlesque performers with the show commencing at 9pm on the
dot and our prima donnas don't like to be kept waiting! Each
performance is filmed live and shown on three big screens scattered
around the venue so everyone gets a great view too. Oh and be warned
the performers will be selecting volunteers (or is that "victims") from
the audience to join in / teach and they won't take no for an answer
either, so don't get too close unless ...............
For full listings see the Whats On page and check out some wild pix on our Gallery page too.

 

The entertainment during the week

We have not forgotten the weekdays either...
On Thursdays from 9pm-12am we bring you "A Night at The Sands Casino"
where our oh so well groomed crooners will serenade you with classic
songs from that bygone golden era think Frank Sinatra &  Dean
Martin and that's just for starters. 
And to cap it all on Sundays 8pm-12am we present "A Night at The Opera"
where aspiring opera singers will soothe your ears with classic arias
from Puccini to Queen whilst our staff in white tie and 30s cocktail
dresses cater to your every whim (but do feel free to come in jeans and
trainers). The perfect end to the perfect Weekend.
On other
evening expect to see classic art-house films playing on the walls with
a funky soundtrack selected by our mix meisters to provide the perfect
backdrop to your evening.
For full listings see the Whats On page.
