Afters
Located in the heart of the Clapham High Street buzz, Afters is Nightcap’s unapologetic take on the classic dive bar—done dirty in the best possible way. This is a venue where low lighting, deep sofas, and a "no regrets" attitude take center stage, offering a gritty but high-energy alternative to the traditional cocktail lounge. Designed for late-night enthusiasts, Afters provides a moody, retro-inspired sanctuary for those who believe the best parts of the night happen after the clock strikes midnight.
The experience is centered around simple pleasures executed with a rebellious edge: cold pints on tap, a pool table worth queuing for, and a menu of "proper" chicken tenders served alongside a library of hard spirits. Whether guests are looking for a casual post-work pint or a full-blown late-night session until 2 AM, the atmosphere is defined by great music and what the team describes as "beautifully inevitable chaos."
As a key strategic addition to the Nightcap portfolio, Afters fills a vital niche in the South London market by blending a nostalgic club vibe with an intimate, inclusive setting. With red neon accents, rock posters, and a disco ball casting light over the debauchery, it serves as a premier destination for both casual nights and exclusive full-venue takeovers. It’s loud, it’s a little filthy, and it’s exactly the kind of bold, personality-driven venue that defines our brand mission.
