| Awful! If you want to wait ages to be served by pretentious bar staff who seem more interested in trying to look cool and moving the bowl of limes 2 inches over to left, then this is your place. The staff are far and away the worst attribute of this place. Their specialty seems to be being rude to customers and serving people in a completely random order, regardless of how long they have been standing at the bar. We waited more than an hour and a half for our food to arrive. When we then began to eat it we realised it was the wrong order. On pointing this out to the waitress we were barracked for having eaten what we had! Avoid this place like the plague. top_lizard - 10 Apr 2008 23:52 |
| In a word awful. As it was my birthday night (Saturday 1st March) I had emailed Bianca and given names for the guest list. We turned up before 11pm, only to find none of our names were on the list and we had to pay the full price to get in. We spotted what we thought was a free table and sat down. We were given table service (at a cost of £6) only to have a girl come up and start shouting in our faces that she had reserved the area and we had to move. We did eventually but there was nothing to suggest this was a reserved space. We finished our drinks and after speaking to the manager demanded some money back. On leaving, the place was packed, totally horrible. Don't bother going, other much better places in Clapham. scottie26 - 3 Mar 2008 16:58 |
| Beautiful decor, a smoking balcony (which is a massive bonus these days, although it shuts at 11pm), but VERY expensive. Drinks are £7 a cocktail, BOGOF before 9pm. My friend reserved an area, for which he had to pre-order £100 of food. The buffet style finger food was duly served at 8.30. 5 plates of decent chinese style snacks, but probably worth £50 rather than £100, we thought it was just a starter and asked when the rest would be delivered! Turned out there was no need to reserve anyway, as the place was empty until 9 / 9.30 anyway (this was a Friday night...) Music was good to start, got better, then got terrible. Nothing special, wouldn't recommend it. emmahobnob - 29 Oct 2007 10:04 |
| I had brilliant night at the White House last saturday night. Having read a fair amount of negative feedback on the venue, I was slightly sceptical about what it would be like. However, all the staff were professional, friendly and helpful, I got served almost straight away (even though the place was very busy), the atmosphere was buzzing and the dj was playing some great music. I will definitely be going back again. Big thanks to Cade who made a great evening, brilliant!! anonymous - 2 Jul 2007 15:53 |
| My first (and last) visit to the White House was last Saturday night. Arriving before 10pm we were a little shocked at the £10 cover charge, and were knocked for six at the price of drinks in the place - more than a lot of clubs in central London. There is a noticable lack of space upstairs however it seems that is where the masses congregate, forcing a stand in a hallway, try and shout to be heard over the music kind of feel. A very pretentious crowd all vying for the crown Mr & Mrs Beautiful. Not worth a visit at half the price. Rocket8 - 26 Apr 2007 10:53 |
