What's the fuss is all that I'm left asking...
Granted, the location and style of this venue are awesome... but the pretence and ambience leave much to be desired. The gardens are beautiful to chill in, but the views are hindered by the walls that surround. The decor borders on glam-kitch - with marble floors and pink fluorescent lighting... and a crowd that tries too hard to be sexy/cool. The music was rubbish - tasteless techno that you cannot groove to - though many do try. Give me a warehouse vibe with funky beats any day...
Just have to say - I went to the Roof Gradens last Saturday and had the most amazing night!!!
Had to queue for a Bit but it was well worth it! The Club is stunning and the gardens are beautiful and great if you smoke like me :)
The music was awesome, they had a percussionist playing with the DJ which made such a difference!
You have to try the burgers from the BBQ too - they're great - just what you need at the end of the night!!
Hi,
Well I've been to the roof garden, a saturday...
Some people told me that it's a cool club...
Well let's see!?
Oh my god, it was just boring, empty, and the quality of music doesn't make you in a mood to dance...so, if you are like me, if you go out mainly to enjoy music, ambiance, i won't tell you to go there...
The decor is really good, gardens are really good too, but I get bored there!
And i'm telling you, i am not a difficult girl!!!
Simply awful, expensive and a waste of time. Aggressive door staff who are barely literate and on a power trip seem to think they are guarding something of value. Having arrived at 10:00pm the queue was around the block and we were told the club was "at capacity" by 10:45pm. The guestlist is useless as it does not guarantee entry nor any discount.
Fellow "clubbers" look and sound like hen and stag parties (respectively) down from Essex for the day, taking styling cues from S-Club juniors and Hollyoaks (men should not wear neckerchiefs).
3 of us (2 girls, 1 boy) had got ourselves on the GuestlistME guest list and arrived around 11. There were two queues outside which were moving pretty slowly. We asked one of the bouncers which queue we should be in and gave the name of the guest list and he pointed us to the queue. We stood in line for about 45 minutes. When we got to the head of the queue we were told we were in the wrong queue and had to queue at the back again on the other side! This, despite their bouncer misguiding us! Got annoyed at that point and went to Eclipse in Kensington to spend our money. Can't deal with idiots like that at the door, so won't going to Roof Gardens again!
The Kensington Roof Gardens experience didn’t disappoint. Well maybe just a little.
The service was pretty good, the venue was excellent and the menu looked great. Unfortunately my starter came out cold and our bottle of white started off at room temperature but as a whole it was a good experience.
Roof Gardens is a wonderful place to go. Very chic and cosy, including the people partying in it! The music is good, the place is really unusual and the price is really worth it, so don't be afraid to spend money for such a beautiful club like this one !
The Roof Gardens is such a plush place. Admittedly, this review is very late coming as I last went in the summer and I'm guessing that's the best time to go as we spent an afternoon basking in the sun and it was amazing! Seriously, if you haven't been to the Roof Gardens yet I urge you to go as it is so nice being able to see over London while you smell the air and drink your beautifully made drink. Such a nice time had by all.
