I thought most clubs of that type had gone.
Moreover, when they existed they were confined to Soho.


There's a huge one on Tottenham Court Road.


Westminster Council (which covers Soho) is one of the more restrictive
boroughs, whereas Tottenham Court Road and Finchley Road station are in
Camden, which is more liberal. Stringfellow was a bit miffed about this,
because his club in Upper St Martins Lane is a few yards outside Camden in
Westminster, so he was not able to effectively compete against Spearmint
Rhino in TCR.
