Description
The Cuckoo Club is one of the hottest night spots in London, and one of the most interesting members; clubs. With a name like Cuckoo Club London, it is bound to be a little quirky, but you only realize the amazing quality of this Piccadilly Circus club when you walk inside.
The interior is covered with mirrors, rich mahogany furnishings, and plush velvet upholstery, complete with a hot pink dance floor because why the hell not? The Cuckoo nightclub is modern, edgy, and rock-chic, making you feel at home if you are the sort of person who loves rock and roll, Alice in Wonderland aesthetics, and cute goth looks. It is a step out from even other clubs in Mayfair, let alone from the stuffy old members clubs from yesteryear.
The restaurant and bar bring modern, delectable delights, and the cocktails will blow your mind with how indulgent and innovative they are. This is not a place for people who are quiet, retiring, and traditional! The music goes on all night, and the DJs themes are suitably surreal and modern, keeping the energy high from the moment you step into the Cuckoo Club until closing time. You will not have a moment to feel bored, and you will never want to leave.
The Cuckoo Club is spread out over two floors and both are loaded with eccentric details, modern décor, and, of course the best guests. This amazing mash-up of a cocktail bar and a youthful, alternative nightclub in Mayfair brings out the most fun people in all of London, and the celebrities at the Cuckoo, London, stand out for being members of alternative scenes, from freaky film stars to rock and roll artists. Want to run into Rihanna, Lindsay Lohan, and other popular celebrities with
fine taste and a knack for the weird and wonderful? This is where you want to be for the most stylish party in London.
The uniqueness of the venue means that you do not have to restrict yourself to usual nightclub trends. You can use this venue to meet amazing and interesting people, have a wonderful time enjoying some of the best music in London, or launch a product that is unique and quirky, for an audience that is going to love it.
The dress code? Dress to impress! You dont have to show up in a suit and tie, or in a specific set of brands or cuts. But you do need to fit the scene, and to really wow the other guests. Made sure you
look clean, edgy, beautiful, and, above all, freaky. If you walk in and feel like you could be a permanent feature, then you did well!
Naturally, if youre looking for a cheap and cheerful night out you will not find it here. The cocktails are bespoke, the DJs are top end, and the décor itself is in a world of its own. So is it cheap? Hell no. Is it worth every penny? Hell yes. Table service is incredible as well, and you can guarantee that the staff will treat you like the VIP you are. The waitresses and hostesses are stunning, the service is fast, and everything will be perfectly adjusted to your tastes because here the customer is always right.

Dress codes can be confusing, so let us help you with our detailed, visual guides!
What is recommended:
The recommended look is the best one not just to get you in, but to make you feel at home.

Generally the men at the Cuckoo Club dress very sharply, with two piece suits, collared shirts (with or without a tie), cufflinks, classic watches, polished leather shoes with matching belts, etc.
Likewise, the ladies tend to aim for beautiful, sensual cocktail dresses, from the little black dress to sexy wrap dresses. Loose hair, simple jewellery, and sensual, natural make up are all ideal.

Description
Cirque Le Soir has now also opened in Dubai and you are now able to request guest list and table bookings for their venue in Dubai as well: Cirque Le Soir Dubai
Please note that the lady at the door of Cirque Le Soir has on many occasions demanded £10 entry even though Free Entry was promised, so make sure to have that in cash just in case or select another club if you are not keen on that risk.
Cirque Le Soir has been going strong since its origins in 2009. The idea is to completely immerse party goers into their amazing world, giving you a full circus experience combined with an astonishing nightclub. Unlike some other chain nightclubs, this one is all British, starting in Ganton St, Carnaby, London, but spreading to Cirque Le Soir Dubai, Cirque Le Soir Shanghai, and many others. Its business model is in very high demand, as you cans see!
You can spend much of the night at Cirque Le Soir London in their “funfair” room, where you can play different casual party games, from arcades to beer pong, away from the main party. You can also go out and dance, drink, and mingle with some of the best nightclub music in London in the background. The freaky circus theme is not dropped for one minute, though. The party involves stage acts and walking acts along the floors. Snake charmers, angle grinders, and dancing models in giant champagne flutes can be seen on the stages. And walking around you will bump into clown dancers, contortionists, stilt walkers, and more.
They cater to all your needs, from private events, to corporate meets, to a brilliant party that keeps going all night long. It is generally considered to be one of the best Mayfair nightclubs, if not the best London nightclub, as voted by the London Club and Bar Awards for three years in a row! If that sort of quality assurance is what you look for, then you can rest easy in their hands.
Cirque Le Soir London attracts so many amazing celebrities with its quirky, yet relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Not only that, but many top-end celebrities have been known to perform there! If you want somewhere you can bump into the likes of William from Black Eyed Peas, Justin Bieber, Louis Tomlinson, Cara Delevigne, or Rihanna, then this is the place to be. Though you might bump into them on the dance floor, or you might see them on the stage, as they are just as likely to be part of the act as part of the crowd! Rihanna, for example, has performed with Cara Delevigne, but also been spotted on the premises having a great time.
You will want to be on their guest list to hit the club Mondays, Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays. This gives you free range of the club and plenty of time at the tables and on the dance floor. Booking also means you will get a table, because they do run out fast, so if you want somewhere to stay for the whole event, reserving your seats is the way to go. You will still need to bring your ID, even after booking, to prove your age.
Well worth it, though! You can enjoy some amazing cocktails, from delicious classics to themed house drinks, perfectly designed to complement your fun. Feel free to bring the drinks with you to the arcade games, or just to sit, sip, and enjoy the show.
The dress code at Cirque Le Soir is smart and sexy. Men should wear smart casual clothes, for example button down shirts or smart long sleeved tops, or even polos. Smart suit trousers are preferred, and polished leather shoes are a must. Women must wear sexy cocktail dresses, but nothing too light or “beachy”.
Besides being dressed properly, make sure you are on the guest list and/or have a table booked so that you get in.
THE DRESS CODE AT CIRQUE LE SOIR
Dress codes can be confusing, so let us help you with our detailed, visual guides!
What is recommended:
The recommended look is the best one not just to get you in, but to make you feel at home.
Cirque Le Sour recommends a smart, sexy, trendy look. Generally the men will be wearing smart casual clothes, such as button down shirts, long sleeve tops, and polos. Blue jeans and smart suit trousers are common, but other colours of jean are not. Men’s jewellery is quite common. Long hair is usually tied back.
Generally the women will be wearing sexy cocktail dresses with bold jewellery and statement pieces, high heels, loose hair, and glamorous make up. If you want to show off your figure, then choose two of the four options when it comes to revealing clothes: low cut, short skirt, exposed midriff, or bodycon. Any more and you might stand out.
What is allowed:
The allowed clothes are the full range of what will get you through the door.
Smart and sexy for men includes:

Avoid these and go for something closer to the dress code.
T-shirts are a grey area. Although the club discourages casual dress, sometimes t-shirts can be part of a smart and sexy look. That said, it is better to avoid them altogether than to take a risk.
Men’s headwear is a grey area. Generally it is actually accepted, but the door staff reserve the right to turn you away if they feel your hat doesn’t work. Women’s headwear, except for religious reasons, is not acceptable.
What is forbidden:

No sportswear. Not just active sportswear, but anything that looks too sporty. Which includes converses and trainers.
No beachy clothes. No sun dresses, sarongs, shorts, and especially no sandals or flip flops.
No big bags or heavy coats. You can ask to check them into the cloakroom, but Cirque le Soir advises against coming with anything too bulky in the first place.
No hiking style boots. Even as a fashion statement, they are just unacceptable.

Description
If you remember 4 Winsley Street as Chinawhite Nighclub… where have you been?! In 2009 the venue was reopened under new management as Libertine London, a brand new London nightclub with an amazing atmosphere and an even more amazing guest list.
What does the name even mean? What is a Libertine? A Libertine is someone who enjoys freedom, hedonism, and all the finer things in life. In that spirit, the creators of Chinawhite remodelled and restaffed their club to provide a most luxurious London nightclub experience. High tech, futuristic in a more realistic sense than sci-fi would have us believe, Libertine focuses on being the club of the future, the club where all your dreams and pleasures will come true. They promise a unique experience of luxury and fun.
One of the biggest and best exclusive nightclubs in London, you will probably not get in by waiting outside the door. An ultra-modern club with three interlinked spaces, it boasts a molecular cocktail lounge named Reason & Mankind, an amazingly VIP private area out back, and plenty of space for dancing and mingling. Though you will have to ask about all the features, as secrets can be found all over Libertine Nightclub London, and not all of them are available to just anyone. See how far you can go.
The interior is one of the most opulent in London, with custom-made oak tables, metallic upholstery and glowing multicolour lighting, all your senses will be overwhelmed. On one of the walls you will see a fifty foot screen projecting images and films for your entertainment.
The concept is flawless, with a combined experience of inclusivity and exclusivity. Many less important clubs have been criticized for being racist or too strict about dress codes. Libertine turns that trend on its head, by admitting you based on your individual merits rather than your most superficial qualities. It doesn’t matter what your race, sexuality, subculture, or background is, so long as you fit in with the beautiful, famous people who are hitting the dance floors. So long as you act like a VIP you will be treated as one.
If you want to get an even higher class treatment, make sure to book yourself a table, or even book the whole London club. They will cater to your every need, whether you are booking for a private party, an afterparty, a product launch, or just to have the space all to yourself for a night. Expect first-class catering, expert staff, and, as the customer, to be always right. The atmosphere will really show who the life of the party is.
On regular days you can expect to see regular performances from some of the world’s most famous DJs and artists, as well as the possibility of running into well known celebrities, from actor Tom Cruise, to RnB artists, Premier League footballers, and models. Recent artists and celeb guests have included: Rihanna, Steve Aaoki, Kate Moss, Gigi Hadid, Rita Ora, Drake, Niall Horan, Jason Derulo, DJ Snake and Trey Songz to name a few. It’s signature night of the week is Sunday clubbing London. But they are also open Wednesdays, Fridays, and Saturdays to welcome their elite guests.
The Libertine Club’s door policy is fairly strict, and it can be very hard, if not impossible, to get in on the night. So make sure to book in advance if you want to make it in.
WARNING: Guests who bought advance tickets have been refused entry without refund.
THE DRESS CODE AT LIBERTINE
Dress codes can be confusing, so let us help you with our detailed, visual guides!
What is recommended:
The recommended look is the best one not just to get you in, but to make you feel at home.
The easiest way to sum up the general look at Libertine club is “little black dress”. Women generally wear their LBDs, simple jewellery, loose hair, high heels, and glam make up. Doing your hair up and wearing some bolder jewellery is recommended for special events.
Men generally wear button down white shirts (without coats or ties), smart suit trousers in black or grey, and polished black or brown leather (or faux leather) shoes. A coat and tie is recommended for special events.
What is allowed:
The allowed clothes are the full range of what will get you through the door.
The Libertine Club does not enforce a formal dress code, preferring people to have freedom depending on how the night is playing out. That said, they have some requirements, which means there are limitations.
Men are allowed:
-button down shirts
-polos
-two piece suits
-smart blue or black jeans
-suit trousers in black, blue, or grey
-polished leather (or faux leather) shoes
Women are allowed:
-pretty much any dress that isn’t distressed-look
-heeled shoes 2-6″ high
-most jewellery
What is a grey area:
The grey area are clothes that might be allowed some days/events and not others, or that are at the discretion of door staff. In short, if you happen to be in the area, wearing these clothes and want to check the club out, then maybe see if you can. You might get lucky. But if you are actually planning a night here? Avoid these and go for something closer to the dress code.
Short sleeve shirts are a grey area. Although polos are allowed and shirts are allowed, sometimes the door staff are unimpressed by short sleeve shirts.
Women’s suits are a grey area. The venue prefers ladies to be in smart and sensual dresses, not in formal suits. Even skirt suits or suit dresses are questionable and best avoided.
Sweaters are a grey area. Even though you can wear sweaters over a collared shirt, the look can sometimes miss the mark for Libertine Club. So it is best to go for a suit jacket instead of a sweater.
Very sexy looks are a grey area too. Although dresses are recommended, aim for something that is not too revealing. If you leave a little to the imagination, all should be well.
What is forbidden:
These clothes will get you turned away at the door, even if you are on the guest list, have a table with bottle service reserved, and it’s your birthday. Sorry.
No t-shirts. Absolutely no t-shirts or even casual long-sleeve tops.
No sportswear. Not even fashion statement pieces like brand name tracksuits or sports jerseys.
No distressed look clothes. Nothing torn, stained, worn down, or anything or the sort.
No leather except shoes. Not even jackets.
No women’s flats. Women must be in heels at this club. At the very least a 2″ heel.
No casual shoes. No converses, thigh-highs, timberlands, or anything that is not a formal shoe.

Description
A world of theatrical dining in Soho, where there is no edge to the stage. Great Windmill Street took its name from a Windmill that once stood there in the 18th century. In 1909 the site became one of the first cinemas in London named ‘Palais De Luxe’. The Windmill brings a new definition to immersive theatre. This is ‘dinner and a show’ for the here-and-now. Once a 320-seater theatre that hosted nude tableaux vivants and the likes of Jimi Hendrix and The Beatles, The Windmill was famously kept open throughout the Second World War by original proprietor Laura Henderson. The venue closed temporarily in 2018 and was reborn as The Windmill Soho, the venue opened its famous doors once again in July 2021. The 350-capacity venue features a main stage surrounded by a ground-floor dining area and overlooked by an upstairs bar that serves bespoke cocktails and food courtesy of their executive chef. You can book a theatrical dining experience, showcasing mesmerizing never-seen-before performances alongside an immersive dining menu designed by Michelin-starred Chef Andrew Mcleish and a creative cocktail list by celebrated mixologist Andy Mil. It’s dining in Soho as you’ve never seen it before.
The Show is curated exclusively for The Windmill. Featuring a variety of burlesque, magic, circus, comedy, and song. Along with spectacular immersive and digital theatre, you have to see it, to believe it! After the show, the lights dim down and the music turns up. There is no strict theme to the food at the main restaurant. Instead, familiar favourites with a good hit of luxury seem to be the order of the day. Lavish sashimi platters sit alongside indulgent offerings like Atilius Oscietra Caviar and fresh ceviche. Other combinations from the chef include tuna and black sesame tacos, truffle Parmesan taglioni, and crab spaghetti. Elsewhere there is whole grilled Dover sole, Wagyu beef sliders, and a roast rack of lamb to choose between. The dessert menu comes with a playful twist and offers up treats like white chocolate and vanilla lollipops with popping candy, proving sweet shop tricks aren’t just for the kids.
The cocktail list is themed around the history of the building and drinks feature extravagant garnishes and ingredients. Aside from the food and drinks, the main space is obviously a huge draw here, and guests are treated to interiors decked out in deep purples, blues and reds. You can expect art deco-inspired touches as well as the use of high-end materials like gilding and velvet fabrics for a nod to a bygone era.
Set across three floors the newly revamped venue will feature The Theatre, which will act as the main restaurant, The Palais De Luxe, a grand upstairs bar, and The Royal Box, a sumptuous private room. Outside, of course, The Windmill’s recognizable neon sign will continue to tower over the street.
In regards to the dress code, we ask that guests are smartly dressed in no sportswear or hoodies. They do not allow fancy dress! Casual wear is best!

Bright lights, glamour, and showtime décor all come together to make you feel like a celebrity being treated to a private burlesque experience. Want to dine among pyro cannons, jellyfish tanks, flying acrobatics and confetti? There is nowhere else in London that will offer you this experience. There is nothing less than wow factor everywhere you look in Reign Club. Piccadilly has never hosted anything quite like it.
The dazzling performances are a must for all adrenaline-junkies and lovers of the eccentric. All their shows are customized on a weekly basis, so you will never know just what to expect from their original and innovative acts. It is truly a sight for people who want something new and interesting to talk about for weeks to come, and Reign Club will keep you coming back again and again.
The London Reign Showclub features all sorts of circus-style performances, traditional musical acts and DJs, as well as some true daredevil stunts that will leave you astonished and really impress any guests you bring for the night. All with the glitz and glamour of Las Vegas. The acts take place on two different levels, with DJs pumping amazing music. Despite the Vegas look, there will be no traditional cabaret music. Instead, enjoy amazing house and electronic music, bringing an edgy modern twist to the show you will be relishing.
Reign has been given an animated design with all the bells and whistles including total venue capacity of about 430, integrated FUNKTION 1 sound system, function-able lighting system and Teppanyaki bar. You will feel truly pampered in the middle of all this five star treatment. Another unique feature of the club is food selection; club offers catnap, bowl food etc.
A table booking is recommended if you want to feel like a true celebrity. Otherwise you might not even get in, as it is an incredibly popular venue and spaces are very limited. Getting on the guest list will be difficult due to limited spaces and a very high demand. So if you want to ensure that you are the star of the night, you might want to talk about reserving the entire club in Piccadilly.
The Reign Dress Code is sexy, elegant and high heels for the ladies and smart casual and smart shoes for the gentlemen. Do not wear sportswear, or anything scruffy or casual. If you look too underdressed you will not be allowed in, as they have a certain quality to maintain. They have a right to refuse entry if you break the rules, whether you booked or not.
THE DRESS CODE AT REIGN SHOWCLUB
Dress codes can be confusing, so let us help you with our detailed, visual guides!
What is recommended:
The recommended look is the best one not just to get you in, but to make you feel at home.
As the name suggests, Reign Showclub’s mood is pure royalty. Black tie, maybe black tie optional at the most casual. That means that most men will be in tuxedos or three piece suits, and most women will be in classic red carpet gowns, or at the very least their little black dresses. Men’s hair should be combed and slicked or sprayed if mid-length and tied back if long. Women’s hair can be down, but make sure to use plenty of clips and hair spray to keep your look neat, or else to go for an updo instead.
What is allowed:
The allowed clothes are the full range of what will get you through the door.
Black tie for men includes:
-tuxedo
-three piece suit
-bow tie
-straight tie (in black or other muted colours)
-collared, buttoned, starched shirt (in white)
-shined black shoes in leather (or faux leather)
-jewellery limited to watches, wedding rings, and cufflinks
Black tie for women includes:
-evening gown
-red carpet gown
-dress suit
-little black dress or little blue dress
-smart heels, 2″-6″ high
-shiny leather (or faux leather) smart kitten heels
-fine and sparkly jewellery
What is a grey area:
The grey area are clothes that might be allowed some days/events and not others, or that are at the discretion of door staff. In short, if you happen to be in the area, wearing these clothes and want to check the club out, then maybe see if you can. You might get lucky. But if you are actually planning a night here? Avoid these and go for something closer to the dress code.
Here the general mood is insanely upscale and classy, so the main grey area is smart casual. Officially, smart casual is the minimum you should aspire for when trying to get into Reign Showclub. In reality, if most people at the venue are wearing tuxedos and three piece suits, you might not be let in wearing a two piece business suit. So don’t count on the night being more relaxed, cause you could show up underdressed. Make sure to put in as much effort as you can.
What is forbidden:
These clothes will get you turned away at the door, even if you are on the guest list, have a table with bottle service reserved, and it’s your birthday. Sorry.
At Reign Showclub their banned items list is pretty long, and if they turn you away, even if you go back and change, the staff might still not let you in that night. They have a very exclusive, elegant image to maintain. So make sure to avoid all these clothes if you want to get in.
No streetwear. Nothing you could consider casual in any sense.
No sportswear. No active sportswear, no fashion sportswear. Especially no trainers, t-shirts, etc.
No alternative fashion. Gothic, punk, decora, etc, looks are not compatible with black tie or black tie optional. A colour theme such as “black and red” or “pastels” is fine, within reason, but over the top accessories will get you turned away.
No women’s flats. If you cannot wear heels, choose some nice leather, slightly masculine kitten heels for a polished look.
No women’s suits. Suit dresses are as far as you can go. No skirt suits and definitely no pant suits.
No distressed look clothes. Just no. Nothing torn, worn, faded, painted, etc.
No jeans. This falls under streetwear but it is important to note that not even smart looking black jeans are acceptable.
No leather. Except for shoes, steer clear of leather. No leather jackets, trousers, dresses, etc.
No bright suits. Men’s suits must be in black or at least very dark blue or grey. Women’s suit dresses can be in black, grey, or any deep jewel tone like Prussian blue, emerald, or burgundy.
No men’s jewellery. Watches, cufflinks, and wedding rings aside, assume no men’s jewellery is allowed. Not even piercings.
No bulky coats or bags indoors. Take them off before entering the venue and check them into the cloakroom.
No hats indoors. Again, check them in at the cloakroom.

Description
MNKY HSE, pronounced Monkey House, is a revolutionary restaurant, cocktail bar and event space in Mayfair. It lies behind a discreet entrance at Dover street and is home to a Latin American bar and restaurant like no other, being where the typical London West End party crowd spends the weekend. The concept inspiring the new Mayfair’s venue is bringing in the cultural spirit of Latin America but giving it a funk ‘British twist’. With a focus on sensory lighting and accessories Mnky Hse acts as the HSE’s living room, the perfect place to spend the evening socializing. It offers the perfect place to spend your evening with dim lighting, low-seating and stylish accessories. The atmosphere creates a sexual, edgy glow to the room with award winning mixologists on hand to conjure you up the right cocktail be it classical or experimental to fit your evening.
MNKY HSE is set on two floors with slightly different vibe. In fact, you access the venue through a famous discreet entrance. On the ground floor (the upstairs) you will find the luxurious bar and lounge area. The design is modern, sleek, intimate with lots of mirrors. Opposite, on the lower level (the downstairs) you will find the Lain-American restaurant. This is set as an open plan kitchen where master chef is Pablo Peñalosa Nájera. Pablo has fused together traditional elements of Latin American cooking with seasonal, British style ingredients.
Late in the night, the restaurant turns into a dancing space thanks to a special set up with removable long tables (which encourage communal eating), table hopping, and also adjustable seating. It’s a new concept of an amazing restaurant that gradually turns into a happening club as the DJ gradually steps up the music. We like to call it a clubstaurant. A very new popular concept that removes the need to change venue after dinner. There is a bar at ground floor with great cocktails but this place is all about the downstairs where the fun is. You need to be very #clubbable to get in. The glamorous bar sets itself with the restaurant just next door making it the perfect place for after dinner drinks or to dance the way into early hours of the morning. Bar manager, Javier Ecribano makes sure that all his Mnky Hse cocktails are presented with a South-American twist even with the menu having its own Pisco and Mezcal sections. If you’re looking for something easy to drink, the Jasmine Pisco-Sour slides down with a nice texture and comes served with love-heart embellished foam and a marshmallow. The house special Mnky Business is a known favorite based on an old fashion but using Peruvian-Rum. Definitely one to warm the insides but not in the way you think as its plunged into a -80 degrees pot, infused with smoke and poured over carved ice to be served in a Erlenmeyer flask.
If you want to make sure you get into Mnky Hse, dress to impress and never turn up in trainers or casual clothes.
We consider MNKY HSE one of the best bars to spend the weekend if you do not want to get too crazy with a proper nightclub. It is in fact the perfect place to meet and actually talk with gorgeous and wealthy people. With the laid-back ambient house music and the drinks list with a taste for everyone, Mnky Hse offers you the full experience of drinks , dinner and escapism all under the same roof.
