This place is for WAG wannabes but sometimes it's kinda fun. I think you need to leave your dignity at the door a little and get absorbed in the craziness of the night!

I am very shocked at everyone's reviews!

I went to the Embassy Sat 26 April for my 20th with my boyfriend and we had the best night.
A small, stylish club with very nice people and staff. We didnt have to deal with the bouncers because we ate there too and they wasnt on the door when we went in at 8pm. The food was lovely.
Drinks are a little pricey, but for the evening, well worth the money.
I will be visiting again soon !!!

I was going to book this venue for my forthcoming birthday but on reading this own websites review I will now BE AVOIDING THIS VENUE and tell all my aquaintances to do likewise.
WHY? well if a "not very good" restaurant tries to make up for the fact the food isn't quality by putting such vile dishes as FOIE GRAS and VEAL on the menu then i say to the management: SHAME ON YOU!
In a society growing more aware of how our food is produced and turning our backs on factory farmed chickens why the hell is a London Club still serving duck livers (foie gras is produced by force feeding the birds in order to make their livers swell up) and veal (the meat of young male dairy calves and is illegal to produce white veal in this country as the system is considered cruel to the animals)??
I will be writing to them and sending their details to compassion in world farming.
NO STARS!

Where to start? It was my mates birthday and despite having a guestlist and the bouncers and door staff knowing this they were still damn right rude and arrogant!

The venue isn't the biggest but it's not to bad, and has a good vibe about it. What a shame that vibe is spoiled by the people there. Seriously the majority of the people there are stuck up and act like their some sort of celebrity. The bar staff are UNBELIEVABLE!!! They are the rudest bar staff I've ever met. You'd think for the prices you pay for the drinks they might be friendly or at the very least show customers a bit of respect. Guess that's not the way it works at Embassy.

So if you like over paying, snobby people, and very arrogant staff all around then head down to Embassy and you'll have the best night of your life. Personally I don't plan on going there ever again and would much rather go to a quality club up London.

Embassy has to be by far the worst club I have ever been to - and I have seen some shockers.

The bouncers (you've guessed it) were just plain up themselves and the bar staff were beyond belief! At one point I waved to get the attention of one guy for him to wave back and continue to do sweet F.A - then high five his buddy at his amusing response.

I mean how surprising that at £18 for 2 vodka's I would expect to be served and that he was paid to serve?!

As a big fan of 'handbag' house, the music was good and the crowd was a nice mix (not to rah) although the men did flounce about like you should care if they thought you're fit - got slightly boring after a while. And before you ask - no I am not butters.

If you are looking for a night where you can get glammed up with your girls and enjoy yourself, don't go here. There are plenty of decent London clubs with less 'tude and the right level of service to make you feel like a million bucks :)

This club is a disgrace. Extremely overpriced, with rude, arrogant staff and full of idiots with no manners.

Went on NYE and had to queue for over an hour, despite having pre-booked tickets, thereby seeing the New Year in on the street instead of inside the club.

The Embassy clearly rides on the fact it is mentioned in the papers for it's celeb guests and doesn't even attempt to give 'mere mortals' a good experience.

Don't bother with this place if you want to have a good time or unless you are a poser. You will be disappointed. If I could give this place no stars, I would....

Went to this club on NYE after buying tickets for myself and friends online ahead of time. Once there, we were made to wait in the queue for over an hour in the rain and were still waiting outside when it turned midnight. There was no apparent reason for making us wait - just pure arrogance. The bouncers were aggressive and rude, spending most of their time hugging each other and acting like they were in some gangster movie and the ones inside pushed and ordered us around for the sake of it.
Don't waste your time and money on this place, unless you really like being treated badly.

The only reason the club gets one star is because there is no option for ‘no star’. The club maybe in a nice area, but the club and its staff are from nice. The bouncers act as if they are in an action movie, and the lady at the door…. Well let’s just say beauty with no brains-whatsoever.... it’s not very difficult to read the guest list now is it darling…
Judging by the people in the club I can’t believe they turn people away, I went on a Friday, and what trash, people looked as if they were dressed to lounge around the comfort of their own home.
Go to embassy at your peril, I would never recommend this club.
