{Preeminent London Burlesque Cabaret Club for Birthday Party and Hen Night Groups|
Our pick of the cream of Greater london's burlesque, cabaret and comedy scene for birthday and hen party groups.||What London burlesque, cabaret and comedy club is preeminent for birthday or hen party groups|||} Tips and recommendations for what to look out for.
London is suddenly awash with venues doing burlesque and cabaret but which ones are most excellent for birthday parties and hen parties where not everyone is necessarily going to be a burlesque aficionado and where other factors like food, and whether there is a disco and dancing afterwards are going to be just as important.
For party groups heading to London's West End you cannot go wrong with Madame JoJos or Volupte. Both have late licences and dancing afterwards although both though are also very pricey. Madame JoJo's is the big daddy of the scene and always worth a visit. Volupte is also very much a sit down and eat kind of venue and can be a bit officey to say the least. If you are looking for something more intimate and off the beaten track is worth considering. is hosting the excellent Tassel club on Fridays but otherwise is to avoided. Expensive too. Bethnal Green Mens Working Club in Greater london's East End also hosts some great nights although the venue itself and their staff are very mediocre The food is abominable and lets just say the mixology revolution appears to have passed then by too. One to avoid. West and North London are pretty barren too when it comes to specialist burlesque and cabaret venues but Cobden Club and Proud Galleries do have some excellent one offs.
Strangely enough it is South London which seems to have the pick of the burlesque cabaret venues particularly for the younger crowd Peacock Bar has cleared up with its combination of burlesque comedy early followed by retro Djs after - all till 2am every Friday and Saturday Their Stars In Your Eyes program has also proved a big hit with birthday and hen partys South London is also the home for Banana Cabaret which remains resolutely popular despite regular price hikes and no review would be complete without mentioning the excellent Vauxhall Tavern (note gay venue).
Interestingly the comedy chains like Jongleurs and the more commercial Leicester Square venues like Comedy Store have yet to react to the burlesque and cabaret explosion going on around them. However expect at least one venue to adopt a named night soon.. Whilst you do need to do a bit of homework it is a great way to hear fresh and more off beat material
