Sticky, crowded kitchens. DJ decks leaning against a box of porridge oats. Silhouettes snogging in the corner of the room. Bodies squashed like sardines on the staircase, and copious amounts of unidentifiable alcohol. Last night featured all the classic components of a British teen house party — with the additions of Maya Jama dancing on the sofa and Ian Wright taking selfies in the hallway.
This was the scene yesterday at Stormzy’s new place, House Party, a brand new, seven-storey bar on Soho’s Poland Street dreamt up by the rapper himself alongside Cream Group. As the name suggests, it’s certainly a house party, spread across every floor of a building that once was home to Milk & Honey.
