If jazz is in your heart you need to go to The Ritzy Cafe
The Ritzy Café is a great jazz bar. It is a delight that is hidden in the South of London in Lambeth. When you look through the windows it looks as though there is no one there. You may think that you will be lonely, sad, and depressed in a place like this. But, when you go upstairs you will be amazed. There are two continental-style bars. They are very cozy and welcoming. You will feel comfortable enough to just sit at the bar by yourself or with friends. There are plenty of smaller tables to sit at if you do not feel that the bar suits you. The decorations are very tasteful and homey. There are plenty of candles everywhere that create flickering lights that set the jazz mood.
The jazz is amazing. It is not your typical jazz though. It is live and comes from the Brixton scene. You will be entranced with the sounds that bellow through the café and the surrounding Clapham flats and houses for rent. The high quality performances will have your toes taping and your head bobbing in no time at all. You will hear great performances in a large variety of categories. One moment you may here music from a French accordion and the next Arabic electronica. You will be thoroughly entertained.
If you are hungry you can grab a bite to eat without being fearful of spending all of your money. Their food is very affordable and delicious. They have a small selections of foods for you to pick from such as pizzas, toasties, and crepes. The pizzas are amazing. They are thin and have tons of ingredients stacked on top of them. The crepes are filled with exquisite fillings that will make you want to eat them until you burst. You will have a great time at The Ritzy Café.
