Former nightclub. The name derives from the initials of its predecessor, the Whiskey-A-Go-Go Club. It attracted a multi-racial clientele and regularly had a large number of potential customers queuing down Wardour Street.
2018: Patrick Martin has told us that in the 60's/70's this club and others in London were owned by Thomas Gabriel Mccabe.
