About this space

Boasting a full capacity of up to 250 guests, The Escapologist is made up of 3 parts. Enter through a secret doorway and you will find yourself transported to the modern-day masonic world that is our Grand Hall.

Continue through to our Main Bar area which has a full-length bar that stretches the width of the room. Finally, situated on the far side of the venue & down a few steps you will enter our lavish underground Vault with beautiful royal blue booths against a back drop of luxurious gold.

We cater for small and large corporate, Christmas and private events.

About The Escapologist

Based in the riotous headquarters of the secret society that ran Victorian London, The Escapologist is styled as part ‘modern-day Victorian men’s club’ and ‘part Masonic lodge’.

Partying like it’s 1899 seven days a week, the focus is on memorable times with great drinks in an outrageous space.

Located in the Seven Dials area of Covent Garden, The Escapologist cocktail bar offers twisted classic cocktails.
