Situated, incredibly aptly on Crown Place, off Earl St (behind Liverpool Street) the new place is the brainchild of Joe Gray, who trained up with Jamie Oliver's Fifteen and got help from the Prince's Trust in putting his business together.

It's certainly a pretty striking room looking at the image above (some of the design is being described as an "explosion of energy") and this latest venue is pretty big too. It's 6000 square feet (i.e. a LOT) and it'll be a combined restaurant bar and club.

But it's not something that makes much of an appearance in modern bars - and now Flight Club is a whole bar based around the game. It's launching in the same Alphatea building that Modern Pantry just opened in.

The list of London restaurants with views is set to expand briefly over the summer as the 40th floor of the Gherkin opens up for a Moroccan-themed popup.
