CityBird: AAA

AAA might sound more like a grammatically-challenged version of Alcoholics Anonymous than the City’s hottest clubs, but forget the semantics. AAA is EC1 slang for Abacus, Apt and Agenda – three of the Square Mile’s premium nightclubs, with eye-wateringly cheap drinks to boot, just because it’s January.

First up – Abacus on Cornhill. STILL my favourite London nightspot (some may groan, but it’s absolutely true). If some dirty dance track, rows of skittlebombs and great company in the form of boozed-up City financiers isn’t your idea of a good Thursday night out, I don’t really know what is. (P.S, I’m going tonight, natch – if you spot me gurning on the dancefloor, come say hai.)

Deal? 50% off all drinks and platters until 10pm in January. 

Apt is slightly less popular with the after-work crowd, mainly due to its location – it’s tucked away in a little alley by Mansion House station, although it could be said the clientele is slightly more upmarket than its Cornhill cousin. On my last visit an investment banker bought my friends and I a bottle of champagne, no questions asked – enough said.
Deal? 50% off all drinks and platters until 10pm in January. 

Last, but by no means least, is Agenda, off Fenchurch Street. Kudos to this place for being the only London club ever with a St John’s ambulance parked permanently outside.
Deal? Are we seeing a theme here? It’s 50% off all drinks and platters until 10pm for the rest of the month. 

Whaddya waiting for? Just don’t forget the alka seltzer in the morning…
