Discover more about Mrs Riot
Rebel Spirit of Kitty Clive
Tucked into the lively heart of Covent Garden on Henrietta Street, Mrs Riot draws its fiery name and ethos from Kitty Clive, one of London's original theatrical sirens from the 1700s. This vivacious actress, singer, and comedian shattered conventions with her sharp wit and unapologetic flair, becoming a lucrative icon of theatreland. After three centuries, her spirit riots anew in this venue, transforming a compact urban space into a haven of punk-pop rebellion. The interiors explode in blazing technicolor, with quirky details lurking in every corner—think vibrant murals, eclectic furnishings, and playful nods to Clive's era that invite endless discovery.Cocktail Mastery and Comfort Bites
At the core of Mrs Riot's allure are its world-class cocktails, crafted with bold flavors and theatrical presentations that match the venue's exuberant vibe. Signature spritzes, innovative mixes, and mocktail options pair seamlessly with a menu of indulgent comfort foods. Crispy pepperoni pizzas, truffle burrata delights, and shareable chicken nuggets provide satisfying fuel for the night's festivities. Early aperitivo hours tempt with affordable spritzes and boards, while bottomless brunch deals amplify the indulgence on weekends.Live Entertainment Heartbeat
Entertainment ignites the space, with live DJs spinning uplifting dance tracks that keep feet moving from afternoon into the early hours. The venue hosts outrageous drag brunches on Saturdays, featuring hilarious hosts, non-stop music, and endless drinks that create unforgettable spectacles. Talented singers belt out show tunes during themed nights like Musical Mondays, while the basement's Kitty's Karaoke Room offers intimate spaces for private belting sessions. This rhythmic pulse turns casual visits into full-blown parties, blending live music, dancing, and spontaneous joy.Covent Garden Nightlife Nexus
Positioned amid Covent Garden's bustling theatre district, Mrs Riot serves as a perfect pre- or post-show pitstop, open from midday Sundays through midnight on weekends. Its central location weaves it into the area's vibrant nightlife tapestry, where street performers and historic lanes set the stage. The bar's casual-trendy crowd—groups celebrating birthdays, friends on nights out, mixed-age revelers—fuels a welcoming, high-energy atmosphere that feels inclusive yet electric.Event-Driven Revelry
Special events define the Mrs Riot experience, from industry nights with 50% off cocktails and food to weekly brunches that sell out fast. The venue's flexibility shines in its hire options, accommodating up to 120 seated for full takeovers or smaller karaoke bashes. This event-led approach ensures every visit carries potential for surprise, whether joining a drag queen extravaganza or simply soaking in the quirky decor while sipping a perfectly mixed drink.Iconic landmarks you can’t miss
