Leicester Square. Elevated.
Rocket Room sits on the 2nd floor of Market Place, Leicester Square — overlooking the Odeon and the square itself. Walk in from Leicester Square tube (2 minutes), take the lift, and you're in. Perfect for date nights, group hangs, birthdays, or just something better than another chain pub.
