Where London goes out after dark, district by district: the jazz cellars of Soho, the basements of Dalston, Camden's stages, Brixton's sound systems and the railway arches of Vauxhall.
Five hundred metres of high street with more underneath it than on it.

Dalston's nightlife is almost entirely below ground, which is why the street looks quiet at midnight and is not. The licences run late, the rooms are small, and a night here is usually three or four of them rather than one.
Cafe OTO programmes improvised and experimental music six nights a week and is one of the few rooms in Europe where that is a full-time job rather than a Sunday. Dalston Superstore opened in 2009 as a gay bar with a basement and has been the queer anchor of the district since. The Ridley Road Market Bar is up a staircase behind a market stall. The Turkish restaurants on the same stretch serve until four or five, which is the other reason people stay.
