Booked this venue for my birthday last night. Fortunately I was in good company, but this bar is absolutely shocking. We had to kick people off the tables we had reserved, the bouncers were rude and over-aggressive when I'd just popped out to make a phone call to a friend who couldn't find the bar. They also didn't seem to appreciate the bar was at full capacity and kept on letting people in when there was not room to move. I bought drinks for friends and wasn't allowed to take them outside. There was a 15 minute wait at the bar.....the list is endless. Very badly managed bar. Will not be going back.
Gigalum is the best place to chill south of the river on a summer's evening by far. The staff are awesome and they do great nights too - a real chilled/non-pretentious amtosphere with the young, trendy goers of Clapham. Gigalum's best night has to be the monthly night that Big-Wide-World put on - some of the best DJs around always hitting a fun/funky tone sets this place off!
Yeah Gigalum's not bad at all actually - we all really enjoyed ourselves and the atmosphere was really friendly. You know, it's not the perfect club but I have been to a lot, lot worse! In my opinion, the club doesn't really matter anyway, it's the people inside and on that front Gigalum get's top marks.
Gigalum is a great bar, with great food. I can't wait for the summer, as Gigalum is going rock!
I had my birthday party at Gigalum on Saturday night. What fantastic staff! They bent over backwards to look after us all. When we arrived the Gigalum manager came over with a bottle of Champagne (on the house) and a birthday card!
Gigalum has it all, and more: dinner, tunes, breakfast and heaters that make it do-able all year round. I'd recommend Gigalum without a doubt. Its got a sophistication to it as opposed to a desperation to it, that many London bars have. You will not be disappointed.
Went to Gigalum on Saturday night for a friends birthday and had the most delicious meal out on the terrace overlooking the Common. I didn't think it'd be that warm but the Gigalum patio heaters kept us nice and toasty. Later on the DJs absolutely rocked the place, and I've never seen so many gorgeous blokes in one place!
I am not a big fan of Clapham, but I enjoyed my visit to Gigalum. The food was abour average but the atmosphere was really cool and funky. The staff were extremely friendly and I even chatted up the waitress. Gigalum will be seeing more of me in the future I can guarantee.
