Seriously do not even consider going to this club. I have never experienced such rudeness from an idiotic and uneducated chick with a clipboard in her hand, the so-called head of security, and the club's manager. I never write reviews, but this needs to be done. It was my friend's birthday and there was about 20 of us (mixture of guys and girls) on the guestlist. We were told that it was fine, everyone would get in and the usual bull they feed you. About 6 girls were already inside and the rest of us got there a bit later. Queued up for 30 minutes or so .. fair enough. Got to the door, I tried to give my name and was simply told "err no, how many guys and girls in your group?". I explained there were 6 girls and 8 guys but there were girls inside already. I wasn't even considered. All I got from her was "No, sorry, you need to get out of the line, its not happening". Tried reasoning with her but of course, how can one reason with that?

So I tried to speak to the head security guy and, no word of a lie, he told me to shut up and he didn't have time for "this". The manager was just as bad, she came outside with a walkie-talkie (because thats her authority right there) and just told everyone to move. They wouldn't even talk to us or explain the reason for their refusal. Safe to say, I didn't take it well and told them where to go. The door policy is a joke, they portray themselves to be different to other central london clubs but they're worse than even Movida and Crystal. Simply - don't even bother unless you want to be talked to like a dickhead.

Been on a punk a few times Been on a monday and friday. Worst place ever. Bouncers are rude and slightly racist! Just full of underage kids. I got id'ed (i'm 28) and bouncers just let some kids in because they were flyering. How did i know they were 17? because they told me. Its not like the kids are grateful they got in (apart from the boosting) they were rude and utterly ruined the night. Its not just a one of, they come every week. Expensive drinks, rude staff, just horrible.

This is without doubt the best club I have ever been to. There is not one bad thing I can say about it. I have been 5 times now and it gets better and better each time. The music is insane, never been to a club thats constantly played such good music throughout the night - a real mixture. Everyone there is nice, not filled with portentous, stuck up people like most of the clubs around. This is the club of london

Punk was everything I was looking for on my first night out in London. I found Punk to be a great friendly atmosphere that welcomed a mixture of people that weren't self-involved posers who regularly ruin everyones night! I arrived in time for free entry and ready to dance! I found Punk's original cocktail drinks a reasonable price and they were definitely worth the wait! The Dj's mix was a hit for most of the night with the dance floor packed near to the end! I'll definitely be returning for round two with more friends!!

I went to Punk Soho with a girlfriend for my birthday (a Friday night last month) and had the BEST time.It's a refreshingly fun-loving and unpretentious place; everyone there seemed really chatty and friendly. Even the loo attendant was an absolute gem of a lady.We got there pretty early, around 10.15 - it was quite quiet at this point, mellow atmosphere, all very lowlit and pink-hazy. Beautiful decor, easy on the high-heels carpeting. Bar one sofa in the corner, it is worth it to know that seating everywhere else is reserved, but the hallway leading to the toilets has useful seating to crash on if you need to.

Like most places, from 11 on is when it really started buzzing, and the music was your usual chart/dance stuff, well managed, and people really just seemed to enjoy letting their hair down on the dancefloor. Only a couple of dodgy middle-aged men lurking in dark corners, who only stuck out because the crowd skews 18-25. Drinks are quite expensive, something very close to £10 for a double spirit + mixer, and not a lot less for a single. It's pretty much this alone which makes it only 4-stars for me. Pretty ordinary London prices for beer and wine though, £4 - £6.Absolutely worth a trip, easily one of Soho's best.

Great music, great collection of people, great atmosphere, greatstaff. Punk is GREAT BRITAIN! Love Punk, always back there for more fab times and free-dancing fiasco's!

One of London’s most famous venues and Kate Moss’ choice club, Punk is everything you could want from a party-location. It was born from and is, what London is: an extremely colourful mixture of people and attitudes. Someone looking for a glamourous night out rubbing shoulders with the Who’s Who of the London art fashion and music scene would be just as much as home here as a rock-kid with a mission to let loose.
To walk into a venue seeing Paris Hilton & Lady Gaga together! WOW!

Best night-club in London.

I went to Punk last Saturday (5/12/09) much smaller than I had originally expected as I came inside. I must say I am 25 and my friends and I are on a decent salary but we picked Punk because on the website it said (and this is copied and pasted here) "This is NOT a venue that charges extortionate drink prices" I think over £40 for 4 JD and cokes is fairly extortionate. The crowd was generally young - a lot of americans too. But alls I could think was " where are these young girls getting all their money from" because they were mostly drinking alot of champagne.

Having said that, I did have a good night the crowd seemed very much there to dance unlike other central London clubs and have a nice time and there was a nice atmosphere as whole. Another gripe I had which was what made me settle on a 2 star rating rather than a 3 star rating was the DJ, yes the music was good "fun" pop music the kind that most people like The Killers, Kings of Leon, Beyonce etcThe Dj just had no idea what he was doing and I mean none!! He couldn't mix, he couldn't read the crowd, the crowd would be really enjoying one song then he would go and change it to something completely different. One example was just as everyone was really getting into House of Pain - Jump, he switched to quite a slow song just leaving people hanging on the dance floor with not much to do.
