Smile London for a stag do???

Following on from my last thread due to personal issues [groom's father ill] I have had to change the venue of the stag night from the'Dam/Prague to London.

Anyone had any experiences of stag do's/days in London that they fancy sharing

I have some ideas like a sedate pub crawl all day to some interesting bars.

The likelyhood is that we will stay in/around the West End area but I'm impressionable and easily led so any other suggestions would be cosidered......carefully

Head for the East End, Shoreditch, Hoxton, friendly atmosphere and a lovely arrangement of strip bars that dont cost a weekend to have two girls dancing naked together. Old Street/ Tabernacle's, Rivington St.

Brick Lane for a curry and then onwards.

Did i mention the water pistols in Metropolis ?

(no i dont w**k there)

Upper Street then down to Old street. There must be 50 odd bars or pubs on those 2 streets and they're about a fiver in a black cab apart.

West End is frankly, ****e, packed and not very inviting. Just try to get a cab when you want to call it a day - no chance.

Stag do ? In London ? Going to be dear, and if there are lots of guys, then getting into clubs might be difficult.

Lets be honest, its not so much where you go, but who you are with, so if me, I would plan a circle line drink. Start at one startion, work your way around, having a drink at each stop. Done it a few times and its a right laugh. Got to start early though !

Brighton / Bournemouth are also good venunes worth considering, Brighton always has a wealth of hen nights, which are great to get invloved with.

Where ever / What ever you do or go, you have a good time matey :-)

The monopoly pub crawl looks good. I live in Brighton....well Hove actually so could do with a change.

Deffo want a lap/strip bar just for sake of a stag do.

Any good ones out there that don't cost and arm and a leg.

Mate had his stag do on a party bus.
You meet at a bar (which was f****** expensive, but we stocked up on stella on the way to the thf near Wandsworth/Battersea)

Then you get on your bus (started off with 3 or 4, like I said, we stocked up with stella)

You get some food, Mexican or Chinese I think, en masse.

Then you go to a few clubs on the busses, with party/disco music blaring out, whilst driving through the centre of London.

Surreal, in a word!

There were only 2 stag do's when we were there and all the other hen parties wanted to be on the stags busses, it was quite good!

Ended up at carwash I think (near Soho anyway) and whilst the others went to get a taxi, we took the stag for a quiet drink, in a strip bar

We got back an hour after they did; they couldn't get a taxi and walked most of it whilst we were watching stage/pole dancing and a few! lap dances for the stag.

Top night really.
Including accomodation, party bus (around£60) and a drink and dance, finished around £300 lighter, but was a good night out.

Pro's
You get in to all the clubs paid for as part of bus tour
Lots of mingling with other hen parties
You get an itinerary(spelling) so can meet up later if you pull

Con's
Its a waste if you don't do it all
The clubs can be quite empty (especially earlier on)
Finishes about 12 (last club) but you can stay there
You might get searched.......

Top night really

Forgot to mention:
Before you go into a strip club, ask how much entry is, cost of drink (beer/spirits etc) and what measures (beer in a wine glass!) and how much a dance is.
Oh, and does it cost anything to get out..........
That's what a friend told me about...

As far as lappy's go, yes . .Stick to Metropolis, but stay away from Secrets . .Bunch of criminals in there . .And plan yr escape strategy well in advanced if yr p*ssed! . . .And yes . . Brick Lane/Old street area is optimum in many respects . .
