"At Etro, I tried to request "Goodbye Horses" by Q Lazzarus by waving at the DJ, but neither he nor his friend at the booth even noticed me. I had dressed like the character from the viral video "Rocker Dancer" to surprise my friend for their birthday, but it felt too lame, so we decided to leave.
In contrast, Lily and Bloom (Kingmans Circle) had a small yet vibrant crowd. The staff was incredibly welcoming and friendly, creating a warm atmosphere. The music was enjoyable, and while the bartender might have caught some attention for her outfit, it was her genuine hospitality that really stood out to me. The staff was engaged and made us feel right at home; they were enthusiastic and clearly having a good time alongside us.
I can’t recommend Lily and Bloom (Kingmans Circle) enough! The ambiance had a sexy, warm speakeasy feel mixed with a hip-hop neighborhood bar vibe. The walls were adorned with black and white photos of famous figures like the Peaky Blinders and JFK. There was even a motorcycle serving as the DJ booth upstairs, a small corner stage for dancing, and cozy booths for relaxing. They also had some delicious food options outside, like oxtails and jerk chicken mac and cheese.
Much love to Lily and Bloom/Kingsman Circle! We’ll definitely be back."
