Overview
It’s hard not to be struck by The Cuckoo Club upon first walking through its doors. It’s certainly a visual spectacle; but, more than that, it’s one of London’s must-visit night spots.
The nightclub’s design owes much to Barbara Hulanicki, best-known as the founder of the renowned fashion house Biba, and brings to mind Slash meets Alice in Wonderland. The cool and quirky décor lends a distinct feeling of luxury at every turn.
In fact, the venue has been specifically designed for late night London party-goers disillusioned with seeing a succession of identikit, soulless bars. There’s certainly nothing soulless about the founding committee behind The Cuckoo Club, which is packed with much of the capital’s leading creative talent.
But how quirky is the venue itself? Well, there’s mahogany, velvet, a hot pink dance floor, and mirrors which better allow you to enjoy the thrill of seeing it all. There’s a highly ostentatious, rock-chic character to the place, which spans an impressive 5000 square feet.
There are two floors of this eccentricity to check out. And that’s assuming that you aren’t even distracted by the opportunities to get comfortable with star revellers, intimate with your clubbing and refined with your cocktail drinking.
No two visits to The Cuckoo Club should ever feel the same. That's thanks largely to the eclectic programme of music and events, including performances from some of the planet’s top DJs. The venue’s flexibility means that a range of both small and large events – there’s a capacity of up to 400 guests – can be held there.
The different spaces include a ground floor cocktail bar, the Gold Room – great for live music – and a DJ box complete with Funktion One sound system. You can enjoy all of this when you head down to the building of The Cuckoo Club on London’s Swallow Street.
Will I be able to gain entry without guestlist or a table reservation?
No - every club featured is strictly guestlist or table reservation only. Entry is always at the door's discretion based on the clubs entry policy, however table reservations take priority admittance over guestlist reservations.
What do I do when I arrive at the club?
If you have a table reservation, you inform the door host who will direct you to the queue-jump area for tables. When prompted, you quote the lead name the table reservation is booked under. If you're on the guestlist, you join the guestlist queue and quote "Blu Nightlife Guestlist" or simply show your text message at the door, which means you have been placed on the guestlist.
What does minimum spend mean with a table reservation?
Minimum spend is the minimum order necessary to reserve the table. The table reservation is for the entirety of the evening and there is no charge for the table itself, simply you must spend the minimum or over the minimum spend.
What is the main benefit of reserving a table?
The benefits of reserving a table are many. It allows guests their own private area to sit and be served drinks. It also often works out cheaper than buying drinks at the bar because with table reservations you purchase by the bottle. It also greatly increases the likelihood of admission and allows guests priority, queue-jump entry.
Do I have to pay cover charge with a table reservation?
Typically cover charges are added to the final bill, although this will depend on the venue.
What time do you recommend arriving at the venue?
Guests are recommended to arrive as close to entry as possible to avoid queues. Table reservations come with queue-jump.
What if people are arriving at different times?
With regards to table reservations, if people are arriving at different times they simply quote the lead name on the booking at the door. Should people be arriving at different times on the guestlist, they simply quote the guestlist name "Blu Nightlife."
