Another One
Monday, November 24, 2008
You do wonder how much longer Dalston can keep going in its ferocious attempt to turn every grotty basement in the neighbourhood into a trendier-than-thou club. With gig-friendly Bardens Boudoir (36-44 Stoke Newington Road) almost qualifying for the grandfather tag and the dancefloor-minded Vision Videos (588 Kingsland Road) ever more popular, this then is the brand new Mustache Bar. You don't need to sport facial hair to get in, but inside it's certainly teeming with it, both on people and pictures. Suitably small and sweaty, the whole place is a dancefloor, with a tiny bar on one and a handy outside smoking bit on the other side. It was playful electro when we visited, but they seem to like everything from Italo disco to karaoke. With most nights free and all promising to end in the morning, we've already stopped shaving in anticipation for the next time. Let's see what happens. Incidentally, how about connecting all those basements via secret doors, with one stamp allowing you into all of them? Just a thought.
