Pepperoni pizza 9.65/10- absolutely delicious. Amazing. Best way to end a night. Slice of heaven cheese to sauce ratio was perfect. Honestly wish the crust was a bit more doughy/soft but other than that it was amazing, also vibes were great

Shittiest club I have ever been. We had a booked table and all my friends entered. I was 5 minutes late than my frioends and the manager just didn't let me in and I was the only person let outside even though all my friends that already entered literally begged the manager to let me in. No explanation or anything while I saw letting other people with no booking coming in, so I thought maybe the manager didn't like me for somewhat reason, even though I was dressed properly to the dress code. Never coming back and I will not recommend.

Visited from the states and was told Maddox was a must visit lounge.
Connected with Oscar (promotes at Maddox) and he delivered a superlative experience.
The establishment was up scale, sophisticated crowd and music did not miss a beat.
10/10! Connect with Oscar if you visit. I connected with him through Instagram Oscar_BushtaHelpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 1 - Tyler N.San Antonio, TX1731Jan 6, 2018
Was told by bouncers we were too drunk to enter even though the 3 women we entered with had stumbled and fallen into the club. Extremely gender bias. My mate and I had 2 drinks for the evening and they told us we were too drunk to enter at half 12. Asked to take a test on my sobriety and they threatened to call the police. Extremely
Unprofessional and bias. Tried getting in less than 20 minutes ago. As you can see I'm extremely incoherent.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Hannah M.Wolverhampton, United Kingdom2386351182Jul 28, 2016
The club itself is rather beautiful, lovely lights, with nice little (and I mean little) booths, and a reasonable selection of drinks.
It's mostly hip-hop, and you need to make an effort.
The night you have here depends on entirely the people who surround you, I had one very excellent night here, with everyone being absolutely lovely, but space is limited, so it's hard to escape if there are morons about, sometimes, the crowds, staff and bouncers can be extremely rude, judgemental and pretentious, thankfully not to me, but knowing that it's happened to others by some staff members and clientele, is enough to put me off a little.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Sophie M.London, United Kingdom511132Jan 28, 2016
If I could give zero stars I would.
I queued here for 40 minutes with 3 girl friends.
Finally at the front of the queue, the group in front and my group were then ushered onto the street on the side of the road, thinking we might be next in.
We stood on the corner of the road with no explanation of what was going on.
We were then told to move further down the street and against the wall more.
After 30 more minutes of waiting whilst they continue to let people in and not us, I politely asked the bouncer if he knew which queue this was..He said "that's the queue over there". I replied that we were in that queue for 40 minutes. He shrugged his shoulders and said It's not my problem I don't know anything about it.
So basically for absolutely no reason we'd queued right to the front and were then just ushered onto the street in a reject pile and told to move further down the street away from everyone.
I don't think I've ever been treated with so little respect and I don't think I can call this a business if they think it's normal to treat customers like that for no reason.
Go to a pub. Go elsewhere. Just not here.Helpful 5Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0 - Nina P.London, United Kingdom12273Sep 26, 2014Updated review
I originally wrote a glowing review of maddox club but after an awful experience at the restaurant and a run in with the staff and their treatment of you when you aren't spending a 6 figure bill I have to change my review.
I was invited to a birthday dinner at the Maddox club restaurant a couple of months ago, the food was average and the service up until the bill came was mediocre. The bill came up to £200 without service charge and £260 with. Clearly there was something wrong as £260 is far higher than the average 12.5%.
The service charge, as is customary had (optional service charge 12.5%) written next to it so, as we had no intentions of spending such a high amount I spoke to the waiter and told him we would of course pay 12.5% but we could not pay £60 worth of service charge. The waiter told me he completely understood and I thought that would be the end of it. How terribly wrong I was.
It was at this point that the manager came over to tell me that I was 'not allowed' to do this and that 'service charge is compulsory' unless I gave a reason for poor service and the manager decided it was invalid. When I argued that the service charge had been calculated incorrectly and in any case it was wrong, the manager told said 'If you can't afford mayfair, do not come to mayfair.'
Needless to say I refused to pay the service charge and was then told by the manager that our party had to leave or be escorted out.
Frankly I was disgusted by the service I received at Maddox restaurant and so I will not be returning to the club or the restaurant any time soon. It is clear that unless you are happy to pay extortionate prices, the staff here are happy to treat you like scum.
DO NOT RECOMMEND.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 1Oh no 0Aug 14, 2013Previous reviewI was invited here for a VIP party and it was definitely the best nightclub experience I've had. Very good size (make sure you explore upstairs), good clientele and though it is high end it isn't the kind of annoying Chelsea club that only let's in 19 year old socialites. Definitely recommend

I can firmly judge this establishment based on the entrance queue alone. Maddox is mostly packed with pretentious beautiful girls all seeking the man with the largest wallet. Talking to these women is far less enjoyable than looking at them. To boot the staff are obnoxious.
If you are a man you will need to be on the guest list to stand a chance of entering. If you are a women you will need to be extremely beautiful to be allowed to enter. Not my kind of establishment this is most definitely a club for the nouveau riche.Helpful 0Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - Benjamin P.Marlborough, United Kingdom41110Apr 12, 2013
I was invited to go to Maddox as part of a group on 'VIP' guest list. We arrived between 10 and 11pm, and were let in very smoothly at the door. There wasn't much of a line up and the door staff were friendly enough. The upstairs area was quietish, it's downstairs where the clubbing takes place.
It stayed relatively quiet until midnight/1pm-ish when the place really started to fill up. This is normally a good thing, but Maddox doesn't really have a 'dance-floor' as such. The only space to groove is what's left in between the various booths scattered about the place. The booths themselves are extremely small, literally three people could sit behind our table, and anyone else was left awkwardly standing over the rest. I guess if you want to sit and talk or engage with your party the best bet is the smokey patio.
Maddox has a cool looking set up, excellent music (I was there on a Thursday) and the party gets going at the right time and lasts the distance. The beautiful and wealthy people are here to play, so if you want to join in the fun get down there and check it out. Don't expect them all to be too friendly though, I never really felt like anyone would be down for a chat or to meet new people. Everyone was in tight little cliques and looked like they thought they were too good to be approached. Bit of a turn off tbh. They want people to drop big bills (they have a 50,000 pound bottle on the menu!) , and will only afford better treatment to those who show it. This all adds to the somewhat pretentious nature of this joint, but then that IS their vibe, and their style. Expect to pay around 300 quid for a 750ml bottle of pretty much anything, and the sky's the limit after that.Helpful 4Thanks 0Love this 0Oh no 0 - P D.London, United Kingdom221Apr 4, 2011
This is the best members club in London.
And it stays on top because they stay true to their original rules and policies.
You have to make an effort with your appearance, it makes everyone feel the atmosphere of a celebration of some sort.
Food is great, too, I used to come here for dinner every Saturday.
I personally like the room upstairs a little more, great electro tunes. Downstairs is quite commercial to my liking.
But the best room is, of course, the Green Room.
Although, there is no chance you get in unless you know any of the owners.
Some may think it's too stuck up, but trust me it's well-deserved.Helpful 1Thanks 0Love this 2Oh no 0
