Christabel’s finally joins the ranks of legendary venues such as Soho House and The Groucho Club by moving to London’s Soho this month. Initially a movement started by accident in 2020 as a group of artists took residence in Fulham Town Hall during the lockdown, Christabel’s quickly became a refuge for artists and musicians with a shared mission to reignite the flames of culture within the London scene.The club is a haven for underground, avant-garde entertainment, indulgence, live music, and burlesque for the imaginative and eccentric of London, in collaboration with The Cream Group (behind clubs such as Cirque Le Soir, Reign, and Wyld).

The new site underneath the Windmill Theatre features a luxurious Chesterfield-furnished Cigar Lounge, a sophisticated cocktail menu by renowned mixologist Andy Mil, food from Michelin-star chef Andy McLeish with even a secret passage leading upstairs to the theatre. Expect ‘Bands & Burlesque’ evenings, topical themes like ‘PARTYGATE’, live entertainment from new and old artists and bands, burlesque from Lady Fitz Von Titz and Miss Lucie Loo, alongside late-night DJ’s and dancing… and everything in between.

The club boasts a mix of Founder Members including DJ Paul Oakenfold, ex-Babyshambles and Kooks musicians, and attracts celebrities from Game of Thrones, Downton Abbey and Dynasty so you might find yourself in very interesting company.

From this week Christabel’s will be open on Thursdays from 8pm – 3am, extending to Fridays after the Summer. Membership starts from £500.00 p/a, with lifetime membership available and special rates for artists and musicians. Non-members may obtain entry through VIP table bookings, subject to minimum spend and bottle service.
