About this space
The intimate 60s inspired night club, The Scotch of St James, was home to some of the most famous rock’n’roll royalty, seeing the likes of The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, The Who and many more go through the rustic black wooden door which to this day, still remains. Legend has it, it was also the backdrop for John Lennon and Yoko Ono's first encounter. The Scotch can also claim rights to an exclusive first performance of a young gentleman known as Jimi Hendrix, who on his first visit to the club decided to plug himself into the sound system and deliver an impromptu performance!
Just a stone’s throw away from the hustle and bustle of Piccadilly Circus and a few minutes’ walk from Green Park, The Scotch occupies a central, yet hidden location tucked away in Mason’s Yard.

About The Scotch of St James
The Scotch of St James is a nightclub, live music and private event space which first opened its doors on the 14th of July 1965.
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.
