What an evening! It was so fantastic that I ended up here twice in one week! As you descend the stairs into the dark, red-lit venue, you can feel on your skin that this place is something special. It's a place where you can indulge in what daylight forbids, giving space to your deepest fantasies. I felt like I was at Fangtasia from the TV series True Blood. A big shoutout to all the performers. The singer's incredible voice gives you goosebumps, and the fire artist and dancers are exceptionally talented. Although the set menu is not very filling, with portions being quite small and light, the overall experience is a must-try if you're in the area. My friends and I had the best time. Also, thanks to our waiter Mark, if I remember correctly, who was really friendly and attentive. Highly recommended!
We purchased the 2 course set menu and show package. Priced at £60 pp. Luckily there was a summer offer for 50% off, but still £30 pp. Upon arrival they didn't have a record of our booking which we'd prepaid for, and sent our advance menu selection, which was veggie or meat, no other options they sent us in anyway even though we werent on the list, and put us at the bar table furthest back from the stage, on bar stools. Not on an actual table, but a long bar island. Very limited view of the stage. Which was further obscured when they seated a group in front of us. Couldn't see any of the performances when the dancers were on the floor. The performances when I could get a glimpse were well choreographed but was extremely frustrating trying to gain a view. We weren't the only patrons with the same complaint; I saw over five different groups on the night, complaining about their view. We didn't bother complaining on the night; we had the cheapest tickets, there was no way they were going to move us, when I could hear VIP patrons complaining about their view! The food was tasty, but no choice about what you could order. Drinks are pathetic. I mean ridiculous prices. Impossible to order. Service was non existent. There was a mandatory 15% service charge and £2 pp cover charge. We paid for our tickets in advance, and ordered one cocktail each. Our bill on the night came to £46. For 2 cocktails; that's how over inflated the the service charge is. For non existent service. unbelievable. I would not return, and wouldn't recommend the show. The charges were over inflated, service non existent, view so obscured it was worthless. Not worth the visit.
This is a hard one as the show itself was amazing but the organisation, prices and food were not. The host and performers were top notch and performed brilliant acts - the host really knew how to work the audience There were regular intervals and a good gap inbetween each course of food. Just be aware you may have to flag the servers down as it's quite dark and they are busy. Now onto my moaning. We booked the VIP 3 course dinner £150 per persom FYI for a birthday and received an email asking us to complete a mandatory pre-order form. Fine, not a problem. Opened the link in the email to pre-order. Took me to a 2 course spring menu with dessert and sides at an extra cost... Having read that the pre-order was mandatory, I emailed them to ask if they could send the link to the VIP 3 course meal pre-order page. I got nothing back but maybe I'd left it too late. I figured we would sort it at the place. Arrived at the venue and was seated at the front VIP included up front tables but the chairs were set up so one person at the table for 2 had their back to the stage... there were a few tables like that. Odd considering you're there to watch the show, not stare at the audience. The server asked if we had pre-ordered and I explained why we hadn't. He then gave us the 5 course menu and told us what 3 options we could have... which was basically a meat option ironically with a vegetarian starter or a vegetarian selection. We chose meat and had no other choice in what food we got served. Fine, it's basically a set menu, I can handle that. I asked about the bubbles we were supposed to have upon arrival part of the VIP package along with half a bottle of wine. To be fair, the server said he'd give us the full bottle of wine instead of half as he couldn't give us bubbles... I didnt question as to why not because I like wine. The food came out and the starter was pretty good chopped tomatoes with some torn mozarella and dressing, basic but tasty. It built up my expectations for the main course. As it was sold as VIP, I had high maybe too high? expectations. The main dish came and it was a small dry chicken skewer on a bed of rice, some yoghurt luckily this helped with the dry chicken and half a pitta.... suffice to say, I was pretty hungry after and not impressed! Thank god there was dessert.... a gooey chocolate bomb. We ordered one extra bottle of wine and 3 bottles of still water... with service charge it was over £120. I'm all for a service charge and I like to tip regularly but for there to be a manadwtory cover charge when you have to have table service... so surely that's part of the job in general? It's not an extra cover because you fancy chilling at your table... you cannot physically go to the bar... The service wasn't actually anything special - bog standard. Actually, I'd say it was sub-par. You had to constantly flag down the server if you needed anything. There was no "how is your meal?" or "can I get you anything else?" etc. So a mandatory service charge felt out of line considering the service wasn't anything to write home about. The wine itself wasn't anything special you got a choice of white or red, no actual wine choice. Let's say it was no Sancerre but it went down... even if it was extortionately priced. I was juggling between here and The London Cabaret Club - I feel I made an error in judgement booking this one. However we really enjoyed the acts and performers, they were absolutely fantastic and cannot fault them one bit. All the periphery things around the show however... it needs a LOT of improvement to boast being the best cabaret club serving VIP packages... if that's VIP, god knows what the standard tickets got you!!
The entertainment and show are great. Limited menu but the food that came was tasty. Small portions but understandable as you’re paying for the show more than anything. Great performers. Drawbacks: Compulsory high service charge but poor service. Pre paid for desserts which never received despite reminding waiters twice and left waiting over half an hour for desserts which never came. Instead of offering us a refund they offered us more drinks. Not willing to give money back until we asked to speak to manager. The service charge and other charges on the day came to £65 for the 3 of us girls this was on top of our pre-paid tickets and dinner. Lots of hidden charges. Overall great entertainment. Enjoyable hen do. Poor service.
It didn’t compare to the last venue! Huge let down.. We have been to proud on a few occasions now, this was the first time since changing venues, we could not fault the other venue, always had the best time, the acts were incredible and went on all night followed by an after party, the food was lovely and plenty of room which made it lovely for you to have dinner and enjoy the show the atmosphere was unreal with such a huge stage and a wide variety of jaw dropping performance's this is why we were excited to be back again to celebrate our 1st wedding anniversary.. However, unfortunately we were left really disappointed as the venue change seemed to have a huge impact on everything else, firstly when we arrived our table was given to someone else and we were moved, we had to then ask to be moved again as they put us to the back because they gave our table to the couple infront of us, we felt like so many people had been rammed into tiny tables in a nightclub the waiters couldn’t get passed without knocking your or something off the table, same for the persons next to us apologising all night, you can hear the people’s conversations right next to you, the 5 course meal wasn't great the chicken skewers were lovely but did not enjoy the rest, the bread was so dry, no butter came out with it and portions were smaller than previously. The performances were yet again amazing but very small space only a couple of feet infront of you, unfortunately it didn’t seem to last as long and there didn’t seem to be anywhere near as much as previously.. we were told Charlotte would look after us and do something special for us but this did not happen either, Alex and the staff have always been fantastic but this wasn’t a pleasant experience this time round, very very overpriced so just bare than in mind we couldn’t believe how much extra we paid on the night and didn’t order loads of drinks either. We are absolutely gutted and unfortunately won’t be returning anymore, it’s a huge shame but wish Alex and the staff the very best.
Genuinely an amazing night out. Upon entering the staff were lovely and the performers were out of this world, especially the fire performer! We had a slightly obstructed view but this didnt take away from the performaces at all. Staff were attentive with drinks and food and all was lovely. 100000% think the performers deserve more credit than they were given, especially by some people who couldn't take a joke and decided to throw a tantrum.... If you get the chance to go, do because its phenomenal!
Last time when I've visited, the service was very low level. The food was like in cheap café. I bought premium seats, but they put so tight and too many tables, so we can't see the scene at all. We were very upset by the atmosphere, and the show program was very boring. It was too much money for this as wellFood: 1/5
Had an amazing time for my hen do here this weekend. at least amazing time watching it! Amazing performances , great atmosphere ! I would love to go here again and would have loved to make it a place I frequently visited but can’t get over how conned we felt by our bill. The tickets had already been bought and we spent £102 on drinks at the table. However the bill came to nearly £200. When I enquired the waiter said everyone complains about the service charge. The service charge nearly doubled our bill! They added service charge for our tickets and wanted to charge us an extra £2 each for a booking fee ! I managed to get the booking fee off we couldn’t find anything in the email that warned us this but couldn’t get the massive unnecessary service charge off. It left us feeling quite deflated and we felt so conned. I have been to lots of burlesque nights/cabaret around London and have never experienced this ! I am happy to pay service thing but not at the same price as our drinks ! The service wasn’t even great as they got our drinks order wrong and after telling them all bar one of us was veggie proceeded to keep wanting to give us plates of meat no pun intended ! Haha overall great place but would not go again as we feel pretty robbed . And apparently so did a lot of people that night when we spoke to them when leaving. It was a shame as we were never told about all these hidden fees so be warned
The show itself was really entertaining. A really enthusiastic host with an amazing voice. All of the artists were professional and engaging. Definitely will come back to see other performances. About the service they need to clarify what we pay on internet as "ticket" is actually a deposit where after will be discounted in the bill and they will count that with the service charge. Overall food and drinks were nice. I really enjoyed myself tonight.
I’ve visited Proud City three times. The performers are always fantastic, and the shows are top-notch. However, the venue and organization fall short. On my second visit, we were placed in the wrong room and missed the show we paid for. My dietary requirements, communicated in advance, were also ignored. Despite being promised a refund, I had to chase it myself. On my third visit, my reservation wasn’t even on the list, and we had to wait outside for an hour despite the ticket saying entry was earlier. Again, we were seated in the wrong room but managed to get moved. After the show, we were hit with an unexpected £50 bill for drinks we ordered 2 in total. Considering the high ticket prices and poor organisation, it's hard to justify the cost. The staff is friendly and the performers are incredibly talented, but the management and venue need a serious improvement.
