This was without a doubt the worst venue I have ever been to. I had booked a table for my birthday for me and ten friends. We arrived at about 11:30pm and it wasn't even a quarter full. I knew this club was descibed as intimate but it was TINY. Claustraphobic, like being in a corridor with a few tables. The staff were extremely rude. They tried to rip us off by saying all bottles under £200 were sold out. The hostess said we should be greatful they gave us a table on their busiest night and that if we didn't like it we should leave. I was shocked. We were not even there for 5 mins before we left. I have never been spoken to so rudely. Luckily it didn't ruin our night as we went on to enjoy a fantastic night at Bureau club instead. I would strongly advise anyone to avoid this place like the plague unless you don't mind being ripped off for the privilige of sitting in a corridor, and for the 5 mins we were there the music was very dated, there was no atmosphere (probably because it was empty). You couldn't pay me to go there!

We had our staff Christmas party here and the bar staff stole from us by fabricating the receipts! Stay away from this venue.

I had party there last weekend with my friends and we were greated at the door by the new owners: Patrick and Patrice.
The club is amazing and the DJ was fantastic. We had so much fun. It is good to go to a place where you can have a good time.
I highly recommend it to anyone who is in Party mood. Even one of my girlfriend ended up behind the bar shaking cocktails with the bartenders. The staff is super nice (you don't see that often in other clubs). Will come back very soon

Do not come to The Kingly Club for private parties! I organised an end of year press party on behalf of my client just before Christmas and it was a disaster. On the first meeting at the club with the client, the club was closed and all correspondence form then on, was a struggle. At that point I should of known to go somewhere else but the client loved the venue. On the night, there was nobody on the door, and the food was so small and over priced we had people complaining. I spoke with the club after the event and they promised half the money back for the food, which I have in writing. That was 4 days before Christmas and after trying to call every day 3 times a day, they have still not sorted out the refund. I have been treated with utter disrespect, contempt and fed lies from day 1. Go anywhere but here and don't be swayed by the glamour.

went there for a friend's birthday party on a saturday and was very pleased especially with the door staff who were smiley and friendly, which you hardly ever find in any london venue these days!
decor is very stylish and the dj kept us on the dancefloor all night :)

I love it! I did my book launch party on Thursday at Kingly, and we all had a great time.

Grant at the door is absolutely gorgeous and friendly, the music is amazing, and the bartenders are all super cool.

I love this place!!!It is a small and intimate venue. Trendy, elegant and smart. Smart dress code! Much easier to meet people and have a great time than any other club in London.

I highly recommend it for private event or parties on weekends. see you there!

I went to the Kingly last Friday night and what a rocking place it was. The music is fantastic and not samey like other West End members clubs.

Gorgeous & friendly people all up, smiling and dancing. Everyone talks to each other here unlike other clubs where people tend to be posing and clicky!

I was told that it is over 25's so I expect this reflected that.It is quite small so they are very selective on the door about who they let in.

I went with a member who tells me that the venue has new owners and that they plan to keep it a members club but have lots of new ideas and plans to keep it thriving.

I personally don't think they need to change a thing!

The cocktails were fabulous and all the juices are freshly prepared on site, the prices are competitive with other proper cocktails bars in the area and worth every penny to watch them being made as well as how good they taste.

A real grown up club for lovely, well dressed people who have something to say for themselves.

I will definitely be considering membership!

Wow! The Kingly Club is awesome, went there on a Saturday night. Drinks are quite expensive and it is a tiny (intimate) venue but the music is absolutely rocking! The Kingly Club DJ does not follow the usual trends of the commercial rubbish that most London clubs play and how refreshing! Good mix of people all going for it too!

Get in to Kingly Club before 10 if you want to get a seat, it's tiny and it gets really packed. Clientelle at Kingly Club consists mostly of city toffs, trendy mid-lifers and spoilt women. On the plus side though, all the staff are incredibly good looking and cheerful.

When you go in The Kingly Club, it is like being in an underground tube. Hardly any room to move and claustrophobic at times. If you attempt to dance anywhere, you are likely to hit into someone.


The good-looking staff at The Kingly Club make up for the fact the drinks are ridiculously overpriced.

The Kingly Club was crap! It is so small and feels like you're in a tunnel. I went there and there were girls parading topless in their knickers (they were in the fashion show beforehand) but still, the place felt very sleazy.

I felt very out of place as The Kingly Club seemed to be filled with little rich kids spending Mummy and Daddy's money. Definitely a place to be avoided!

The Kingly Club is pretty funky but really small and hot, so be warned!


Drinks are not extortionate at The Kingly Club and staff are nice, but they could have a better DJ.
