From the venue

Admiral Duncan runs cabaret every Thursday night from 9:30, hosted by Sandra. It's a long-running Old Compton Street institution — free to watch, drinks at the bar, warm crowd. Every night of the week actually has a cabaret slot here, but Thursday is Sandra's regular — pull up, order a drink, settle in for the show. A Soho fixture with proper heritage.

A long-running Old Compton Street institution: Sandra hosts a Thursday cabaret from 9:30, free to watch with drinks at the bar. It reads as a proper show night rather than a quiet pint — expect a warm, boisterous front bar.

Who it suits
Anyone up for a lively hosted show with friends, not a quiet catch-up.
Worth knowing
It's free and the room fills fast, so come early if you want to see the stage.
