Downstairs at Ziggy Green is Colony Room Green. Known affectionately as one of the ‘seediest spots in Britain’ but also the Bohemian heart of Soho, The Colony Room Club was an infamous drinking den/small members club which ran from 1948 to 2008. It attracted celebrity artists and eccentrics of its day, including founder member Francis Bacon and Lucian Freud.

Curated by Darren Coffield, ex-club member, artist, and author of ‘Tales from the Colony Room’ - we have worked tirelessly to recreate the infamous Soho drinking den catering to the bohemian elite through an immersive art installation in the downstairs of Ziggy Green.

With no phones allowed and the only prerequisite for membership to not be boring (a rule instilled by Muriel Belcher, the original club proprietor), head down the staircase and step back in time. Sip on beer, house wine (with prices matching those of 2008) or an Espresso Martini - in memory of Dick Bradsell, the head barman at the club in the late 1990s (who created the now ubiquitous cocktail for Kate Moss) - all in the surrounds and iconic green hues of Colony Room Green.
