The night

A hidden speakeasy, soundtracked

Global Tones is Tone Central’s flagship residency. Our resident DJs play RnB, Afro House, Amapiano, Latin, Brazilian sounds and the best edits, in a low-lit, red-velvet speakeasy tucked away in the heart of Soho.

Nights start mellow, perfect for dinner and cocktails, and build as the room fills, from slow-burning soul to late-night dancing. Expect table service, signature cocktails and delicious tapas, all soundtracked by DJs who read the room.

Bookings only · 21+
