606 Club

Top choice in Kensington & Hyde Park


Named after its old address on the King's Rd, which cast a spell over London's jazz lovers back in the ’80s, this choice, tucked-away basement jazz club and restaurant gives centre stage nightly to contemporary British-based jazz musicians. The club can only serve alcohol to nonmembers who are dining, and it is highly advisable to book to get a table.

There is no entry charge, but a 'music charge' (£10 Sunday lunch, £12 Monday to Thursday, £14 Friday and Saturday, £12 Sunday evening) will be added to your food/drink bill at the end. It's open for occasional Sunday lunches.
