Best Hip Hop Clubs in London
It may come as a surprise that London, known to some as the land of royalty, red telephone booths, and posh old ladies, happens to be one of the hip hop capitals of the world. Multiple sub-genres have come out of the British hip-hop scene, such as British Grime (if you haven’t ever heard grime, give it a go, check out artists like Stormzy and Skepta), British Trip Hop, and Brithop. With its own distinct hip hop culture and sound, the London hip hop scene is like no other, and it must be experienced first hand. Below is a list of the best clubs in London to do so.

Toy Room
Toy Room blurs the line between the innocence of iconic children’s toys and the sexual deviance of adult fantasy. With a max capacity of 415 guests, the venue provides an intimate and exclusive atmosphere for all who have the pleasure of entering. Provocative neon signs line the walls and door ways in the Toy Room, and a kind of counterculture seems to be the dominant vibe. The club plays strictly Hip Hop and R&B, so you can sustain your groove all night long. Click here for bottle service reservations at Toy Room.
Egg
Funny name, serious party. Egg London is open until 6 am, so instead of waking up in the wee morning hours hungover, you will still be enjoying the party. Egg is a trailblazer among clubs by offering “memberships” that guarantee discounted and fast track entry among several other benefits.
Even better than that is their “student membership,” a GENIUS option for collegiates who want to stay ahead of the curve and in the know when it comes to nightclubs among their peers. So while America’s college students are pounding Natty Lights at a dive bar, London’s are waltzing into upscale nightclubs with their +2 in stilettos and silk.
Three dance floors and a spread out outdoor terrace make the layout. As for the music, house and techno are the main flavors. Come on Fridays for the new DJ names ready to make their big break. Saturdays are more seasoned- bringing in international DJs and all their glorious consistency. You can book bottle service at Egg here.
XOYO
XOYO is one of London’s very best clubs, regularly drawing international DJs to spin tracks from its booth. It’s open six days a week offering everything from techno to funk, but for some stonking hip hop, Thursday is the night to head on down. The amusingly named Your Mum’s House began its life in Dalston venue The Nest but has since moved across to the Shoreditch club, bringing its raucous hip hop vibes with it. Expect party-starting anthems alongside some R’n’B, bass music and more. Easily make bottle service reservations at XOYO here.
Shaka Zulu
Located in Camden, Shaka Zulu features a south African theme and is one of the top nightspots in town!
