Crystal Members Club reviews
I'm sorry, but I don't know what everyone is on about! I went with a group of friends for the first time, 7 guys in total and not a single lady. None of us had been there before. We booked a table beforehand and were a bit nervous after reading all the reviews. To our surprise, we found the staff at the door to be polite as they let us through with hardly any problems. (They gave us a bit of grief, but that was expected since we were 7 guys.) We didn't queue for more than 2 minutes before being ushered to our table by a beautiful lady and handed drink menus. The table was amazing and everything was prepared before hand. They had all the bottles we needed and they didn't try to throw us off with the more expansive options. Every ten or twenty minutes they brought fresh glasses, cleaned the table and brought ice when needed. The club wasn't as packed as I would like it to be, but after 2am the place had people bouncing of the wall. I had an amazing time and will definitely come back again and again.
The best thing about this place was that is had a lot of space to move around and dance about, and the bathrooms weren't crowded. Only minus, the DJ could have been better.
A piece of advice for anyone who wants to go to this club, if you're not a usual around high-end London member nightclubs or just don’t want to pay the 700, 800 or even 1000+ pounds for a table, then you shouldn't bother yourself with these places. Remember to always be polite to the bouncers, and if they do you a favor, then tip them properly.
P.S. I have never seen this many beautiful "normal" girls in any other club I've been too.

Went on a Thursday night for a friend's event and had a great evening even though the drinks were extortionately priced. However, it all changed around midnight when people started to leave...
The cloakroom had lost a huge number of people's belongings. At least 1 in 3 people had something missing – a scarf, a blazer, a coat and even handbags. The cloakroom is next to the entrance and the toilets, so as a queue built up there were people pushing to move in all directions. It became an extremely scary crush and the club lost control. After 30 mins of people getting shoved everywhere and the men linking arms to protect the girls etc, they eventually sent in the bouncers. These skinhead geniuses decided that the best way to clear things up was to confine people to an EVEN MORE confined area.
People wouldn't give up though, because their expensive belongings had effectively been stolen by the cloakroom. So if anybody complained that the cloakroom had lost one of their items, the bouncers came and forcibly THREW them out of the club. I went and called the police because the crush was dangerous and things were getting out of control. Then I gave up on my belongings and went home in the freezing cold and without the warm clothes which had been lost by the cloakroom.
Today my girlfriend went back to the club to look for my belongings because she works nearby. The cloakroom had THREE crates of clothing left by people that Thursday night!
In conclusion:
- Nice but overpriced club
- Cloakroom people are basically as good as thieves
- Club had no control of the crowd
- Violent, stupid bouncers
- DO NOT GO TO CRYSTAL
