Celebrity hotspot Mahiki is closing the doors of its flagship Mayfair club after 16 years as the Covid fallout continues to bite.

The bar and club, that has previously hosted famous faces including Beyonce, Rita Ora and Prince Harry, is now seeking a new location.  

‘After sixteen years in our original location, now is the right time for us to find a new home for Mahiki,’ co-owner David Phelps said, according to the Evening Standard. 

‘We are looking for somewhere where we can really make the most of what people love best about our Mayfair spot – the Lanai lounge bar, the cocktails, and the sense of pure escapism which had people wanting to dance on the tables every night.’

Mahiki was opened in 2006 as the brainchild of David Phelps, Piers Adam and Nick House.

It offered a ‘Tiki Paradise’ that ‘earned its place as the Mayfair legendary institution to have fun’, the official website states.

The announcement comes after Mahiki announced its new partnership with Silverstone ahead of the Formula 1 British Grand Prix later this month.


Other famous faces to have frequented the Mayfair-based club include Rihanna (left) and Zara Phillips (right)
