Paramount Club

Square Mile Review

Paramount members’ bar and club is the Centre Point building’s saving grace. The 1960s concrete behemoth might not be to everybody’s tastes, but thanks to master designer Tom Dixon, the top three floors should be to yours.

As you’d expect, the club boasts lounge, bar, restaurant and private-hire spaces, but its pièce de resistance is its unparalleled view across the capital. 

Extravagant modern design is matched with a superb restaurant – both complementing the club’s lofty status. Headed up by chef James O’Connor – formerly of Bovey Castle and Damien Hirst’s restaurant in Ifracombe – the restaurant’s menu is an offering of classic modern British dishes. 

Chaired by Brunswick Group CEO Alan Parker and Stephen Fry, the membership committee has representatives from cultures as diverse as film, law, media, academia, fashion, publishing, finance and theatre. It’s about as inclusive as exclusive gets. If you fit the bill, then get in touch… as long as you’re not scared of heights.
