Situated in the City of London's Leadenhall Street, the new 1,000 capacity Revolution bar/restaurant and club covers three floors of the Sir Edward Lutyens-designed former Midland Bank building. It cost the Leisure Group Ł3 million to redevelop.
The club's booths are sponsored by vodka brands Flagship, Stolichnaya, Absolut and Zubrowka. A converted strong room, complete with original safe deposit boxes and vault door, is now a private meeting room, dining room and bar, sponsored by U'Luvka.
Revolution boasts over 100 different vodkas and the 60-foot long Lutyens bar is claimed to be the longest in the City of London.
