Cafe de Paris

Avoid this place if you can. Not an experience I expected for such a big name.. staff were not happy , they were rushing, not helpful at all, not smiley. Dj wasn’t enjoying himself at all. Music tracks were too old. The sound was coming from two sets of speakers only coming from one side of the club read moreAvoid this place if you can. Not an experience I expected for such a big name.. staff were not happy , they were rushing, not helpful at all, not smiley. Dj wasn’t enjoying himself at all. Music tracks were too old. The sound was coming from two sets of speakers only coming from one side of the club, which means if you were sitting on the other side the club sound was different and not as loud. Dancers didn’t enjoy themselves as well, no show really. Prons : the design of the place was nice and exceptional. It felt like in the past this was an amazing club.. but not now...! I visited the place at 26th May.

I wanted to like this place. As a Londoner, I always walked past and never went in. It came across as a tourist trap, and I read some bad reviews, especially about the staff.

As a Londoner, I always walked past and never went in. It came across as a tourist trap, and I read some bad reviews, especially about the staff. I understand working in a club, you probably dislike drunk people, but the staff at Cafe de Paris need to understand that: this doesn’t mean you should assume everyone is a drunkard and even if so, these people are your customers and people. So I paid for the Gold package for the Cabaret. The show was good and the performers impressed. The food, however, less so. The steak was burnt. It tasted bitter like charcoal. When the club night started, I went to ask the DJ for a song and one of the security guard stood in front of me like a barricade and said no song requests. OK. The kind of music they play here really sucks too, it’s the same club music you would hear 5+ years ago. Pop chart songs. And then our friend arrived at 10, and of course the door staff refused to let her in. I wasn’t even annoyed or tried to argue because I read reviews online that this is typical of the door staff. I thought that perhaps some people who posted this comment were drunk, but the friend who came wasn’t too drunk at all. All in all, I wanted to like it and went with an open mind, but the night went the way many warned.

Went here for my friend's birthday with a promoter and was promised complimentary drinks all night. We got 1 glass. If you're going to go with a promoter, don't, they make money from you saying you're on their guest list and dont even give you what they promised. overall boring atmosphere and music. read moreWent here for my friend's birthday with a promoter and was promised complimentary drinks all night.
