House of Gods, “Edinburgh’s sexiest hotel” is a 22-room boutique hotel and cocktail bar – just off Edinburgh’s Royal Mile and is set to launch an exciting new late-night dining experience; Casablanca Cocktail Club
The self-confessed ‘over the top’ venue, will combine a part restaurant, part late night hotspot concept, reminiscent of the celebrity-fuelled club scene of LA, where guests can revel in late-night dining in the capital’s most decadent destination.
Casablanca Cocktail Club is located across a courtyard from House of Gods and is scheduled to open on 16thSeptember. With equal emphasis placed on the dishes, the surroundings and the music itself, it’s Edinburgh’s first foray into vibe-dining.
“We wanted to create a truly hedonistic dining experience” explains Mike Baxter the co-creator of House of Gods.
Head Chef Andrew Logie has been trusted to create something very special and it comes as no surprise that the menu will be outrageously extravagant. Dishes such as a ‘24 carat gold Wagyu burger’ served on limited-edition Versace plates to ‘Scallop Chicken Wings marinated in Dom Perignon’ will feature.
The lavish style that the creators of House of Gods is known for is extended to the Casablanca Cocktail Club. Think mirrored ceilings, pinot noir velvet clad dining chairs and gilded artwork. Whilst the pulsing neon lights create an otherworldly, film-like aesthetic.
The team has collaborated with some of Scotland’s finest DJs to create the bar’s ‘guilty pleasures’ soundtrack. Mike explains: “An eclectic mix of house and funk edits of favourites like Beyoncé, Guns’n’Roses, The Notorious B.I.G. through to contemporary artists like The Weeknd and Lizzo. Think the coolest wedding you have ever been to; it’s the music that connects us and brings everyone together no matter their musical preferences”.
“We wanted to create a space where you could go for an incredible meal, have a few drinks and end the night dancing on the tables. With operating hours that see the restaurant open until the wee small hours, it’s fair to say diners won’t have to find somewhere else to head to for a post-meal nightcap.”
With demand for tables already high, Casablanca Cocktail Club are now offering pre-access registration via their website (www.casablancacocktailclub.com)
