Ruby Blue

Touting itself as ‘Leicester Square’s most stylish night out’, Ruby Blue’s style barometers appear to be Gok Wan & Colleen Rooney. Join Hollyoaks lookalikes for shots of ‘deluxe’ Ivan the tropical (Grey Goose, lychee & passion fruit), sink ‘proper’ Pimm’s & ‘muscle beach’ iced tea by the jug, or max out on punchbowls for sharers – gold blush (vodka, peach schnapps, Prosecco, apple & cranberry juices) at £50, say. Petit Chablis, Chilean rosé & Heidsieck Champagne by the glass show the length & breadth of the wine list. Food is a globetrotting jaunt through salt & chilli squid, mini Cumberland sausages, pizzas, ‘gourmet’ burgers, fajitas & so on. The covered terrace offers puffing opportunities for smokers, as well as a grandstand view of Leicester Square’s red-carpet action below.
