A bar is opening for women City workers tired of their male colleagues' testosterone-fuelled drinking haunts.
Kanaloa, run by the owners of Mahiki and Whisky Mist, will charge men £10 for entry after 9.30pm, but let women in free. The Polynesian-themed bar will also offer women clientele manicures and massages when it opens next month in Shoe Lane.
Nick House, who set up the bar with business partner Piers Adam, said he drew on his experience working in the Square Mile. “I realised all my female friends needed somewhere more relaxed and fun to drink,” he said.

It would intensely amuse me if this fell foul of equality legislation. Just to irritate the owners, I think I might draw this to the licensing authorities' attention as well as to attention of the relevant 'equality' quango.
