Tramp is one of the most famous nightclubs in London. As soon as I told my mum I was going to a party there she instantly told me about how in the eighties Tramp and Annabel’s were the private members nightclubs where all the stars went. A London institution, it’s the place where Princess Anne danced the night away in her youth, and where Joan Collins and Liza Minelli both had their wedding receptions. Michael Caine claimed to frequent Tramp every night in the seventies, and Keith Moon from The Who even danced naked there….and no one batted an eyelid.
That’s what Tramp is most famous for; being a place where celebrities could let loose without worrying about being photographed or kicked out or judged. With it’s impressive frescoed ceilings, wooden paneling and chandeliers, it looks like one of our normal private members clubs but with a twist. There’s a dance floor and a DJ booth in the middle.
The theme for the party at Tramp was ‘James Bond/Casino Royale’, so the girls and I got all dressed up and headed down to Jermyn Street to meet Kiran. Tramp is located right behind/under Fortnum & Mason, and as you descend down the stairs, past glass cases of Cartier jewellery, the history of the club seems to envelope you as you’re welcomed in to the den of hedonistic excess.
The champagne flowed (mainly as it was cheaper than anything else – a single G&T was £17), and the music pumped. There was a casino table in the centre of the restaurant and bar, with people crowded around. The entire place was packed…on a Tuesday night.
I left at a time suitable for a school night, around midnight, and after taking a couple of quick end-of-the-night outfit selfie at ROSL, I headed home to bed, and found Dylan fast asleep wrapped up in his blanket with his red dog. My parents spoil him far too much. I took a photo of him and then he promptly woke up, and leaped towards me to give me a great big sloppy lick, his tail wagging furiously.
A fabulous evening in a very special place, I feel very lucky to have partied in such an institution. Also, can you believe that after months of no clubbing posts, I’ve posted two in less than a week!

That was the one thing that annoyed me, it was so crowded it was hard to dance as people just push past you trying to get from one side of the room to the other! Apart from that it was lots of fun though 🙂
