Description

Just a couple minutes walk away from the heart of London's hip young scene in Shoreditch, Trapeze is as quirky as they come.

Like the trophy room of a retired ringmaster, it is decorated in the faded wares of a once-glorious circus; you'll sit beneath hanging trapeze bars in carousel booths, admiring the clown costume and giant suspended disco ball. Split over three levels the venue offers space for private parties, a renowned club in the basement, gorgeous cocktails and an American diner style menu. 

On weekday evenings Trapeze Bar offers the best offers of Shoreditch with 2-for-1 burgers (Tuesday), Happy Hour all night (Wednesday) or just delicious burgers and tasty sharing platters plus creative cocktails and Happy Hour 5 to 8PM. While at the weekends Trapeze turns into a major party destination with top DJs playing in the bar after dinner and great club nights in the Basement. 

All in all, Trapeze is perfect for hanging out with friends, celebrating special occasions or for impressing a new date with your knowledge of quirky London hang-outs.

Had a nice time, the manager was a nice guy and served well, cocktails were ok, the deal was very good, nice platter but not worth the price on the menu, which I think was around £25, come on maybe £15, cost of the ingredients must be around a pound visited Trapeze on 16 Aug 2017

Had a great time went with 2 of my friends one who was celebrating her birthday. Rudy made sure there was a cute birthday pack full of sweets and popcorn with a happy birthday message and a balloon for the celebrant. The drinks were decently priced as we went on Happy Hour Wednesday. Will defo be back soon! Jennifer visited Trapeze on 16 Aug 2017

Very disappointed, seating area only for 8, at a push , and was meant to be for 15, Food didn't come out at time booked despite re ordering, and a rip off!! Barely enough food for 3 people let alone 15, not a good way to spend my 30th birthday visited Trapeze on 29 Jul 2017

Reply from Trapeze

Thank you for your feedback and we are sorry and would like to know more so we can ensure this does not happen to anyone else. We can see that there were no dinner bookings on this night, which means your booking would have been a area reservation which we do not offer seating to all the party. We do detail this in the confirmation emails and on the phone during booking. You can reach us at jointhecircus@trapezebar.com we would like to put things right.

Great night, second visit when we go to London. Great tunes and clientele good company, great vibe. Only thing I would say is we were told to stand in same line even though we were on the 'guest list'. Also feel it's looking a bit tired since our last visit (2014), could do with a bit of a facelift. Otherwise one of our all time favourites in London. Recommended. visited Trapeze on 12 Aug 2017

They charge 5£ for entrance but disagree to provide receipt. Sounds like money laundry!! I think this place need to be checked by government as it's not legal to charge and for anything without a receipt or any sort of proof of payment. Once requested manager did not explained why we can not get a receipt and security literally kicked us out! Do not recommend to anyone to visit this dodgy bar! I bet all staff get payed without payslips as well!

Reply from Trapeze

we do provide receipts for all transactions handled by Trapeze. However the door charge for the club is handled by external promoters and we can put you in touch with them if you need a receipt.

Atmosphere great, staff great but the food was very poor. We ordered strongman sharing platter for 2 and what turned up was not enough food for one. It was more like a starter than a main course. We left hungry and went to another restaurant for the main course. visited Trapeze on 05 Aug 2017

I found this lovely Venue on East street, The Trapeze bar with a circus theme which looked great. I took my Sister there for a post Graduation drinks and she LOVED IT. From the moment we got there the staff were on hand to welcome us as well as seat us to our located table which I had booked. Our server was excellent, she listened to all of my requests and actioned them whilst under pressure with other duties going on around her. Our Cocktails were Amazing.... AMAZING!!! if I could be critical it would be about the presentation of the platter that we got, the food was delicious but it could of looked better but that's it. The door staff to the bar staff and our server were All great for the whole eve I'm looking forward to coming back with my friends. Thank you to the Trapeze team. 🙌🏾🎉🍾💃🏾 visited Trapeze on 04 Aug 2017

I had organised my birthday last minute.com and the staff at trapeze were most accommodating to my requirements. My friends and I had an absolutely great time and the music was old kool hip hop and rnb which was right up our street! Large venue with a great atmosphere you cannot go wrong. As mention the staff were great especially a lady by the name of juillete who assisted us from start to finish. Defo will be coming again! visited Trapeze on 29 Jul 2017

We booked a table for my hen do. Got in and sat down no problems. The atmosphere was good until after 11 and a few drinks got split & there was some unhappy people but the security was excellent & sorted it immediately. Only downside would be the waitress offered to get our drinks when we were more than happy to go to the bar. She said there was no difference but the bill came back with service charge! visited Trapeze on 29 Jul 2017

Food and drink was nice. Nice variety of cocktails. As a 'sharing platter' the strongman was actually quite small. The first two drinks we got were wrong and the drinks originally took a very long time to come. The service by some staff was very good but not so good by others. As a table of two with a reservation we were sat on a big table by the bar which was not enjoyable because it was very noisy. We went with a view we were going to a restaurant which was our fault. As a bar it's amazing but as an eatery it's bad visited Trapeze on 29 Jul 2017

Hi there, thank you for feedback and it's great to hear you enjoyed the quality and variety of our cocktails. They're our specialty ! We are a bar serving food and not a restaurant so we are always quite busy but constantly strive to improve, all of our staff are trained to the highest standards but some of them learn faster than others :)

A really great night- we had a booth for a fair few hours. Staff were very attentive and helpful throughout our evening. Food was very tasty, but was slightly disappointed in lack of sides or dessert available. Would have been great if this was on offer! But as I said, what we did have was excellent. Thank you for a fun and enjoyable evening! visited Trapeze on 28 Jul 2017

Had an awesome night here - all the staff from the door people to the waitresses and the managers were so friendly, so helpful and went out of their way to make our night amazing. Big shout out to Frenchy especially! The music was a blend of commercial, rnb, pop, some old school stuff, and the club (which is a separate to the bar) had all the hip hop rnb tunes and was open until 3am. Had a really good night out! visited Trapeze on 22 Jul 2017

We booked in a large group for a birthday party and had secured one table to use as a base. The booking team was friendly as was the bar staff and door men. We were only in the upstairs bar but it was a great night and we didn't need to go anywhere else. The happy hour menu is seriously good value, but even if you're not there during that time the prices are reasonable outside of that. Does get very busy as the night goes on, but only as to be expected. We also had some items left behind on the night and the team went above and beyond to help us track them down which I always think is a good sign of trust in a place and I'd definitely come back/ recommend others to visit. simon visited Trapeze on 15 Jul 2017

We had a lot of fun at Trapeze. We booked a private booth for a 40th birthday and really appreciated the giant balloon, car-cocktail with sparkler and glitter canon! It was also fun to have the tarot readings upstairs. Though it was probably a little loud. The staff were very attentive and helpful and I'd recommend the venue to anyone. Thanks so much! visited Trapeze on 29 Jun 2017

Staff was accommodating when I asked to move to a nicer sitting area, the food was basic but good; however we were told only when ready to order that the veggie option wasn't available; probably best to let customers know as soon as they book: had we been all vegetarians we would have probably chosen another place. Great happy hour cocktails! We were given a tiny pot of mayo for 4 people and when we asked for more the waitress reluctantly brought another one. The bill was not correctly itemized and when asked for clarification the waitress was a little abrupt in snatching the receipt from my friend's hands to go check with her manager. All in all a good experience but would work a bit more on customer service skills. visited Trapeze on 08 Jun 2017

I booked a guestlist for 11 people on the Sat 3 June. My party and I went in for my birthday and stayed at the bar firstly for around an hour upstairs. I then asked if we can go downstairs (to the club), to which I was told the whole party would need to leave the main area on the ground floor, come back outside, and queue up in a separate queue to get into the club. Try getting 11 people to leave the bar and all their drinks and want to queue AGAIN outside. I was left wondering why there is even an option to book a guestlist. I ended up staying upstairs and not even going to the club. The bouncer outside was also verbally very abusive to me when all I wanted was some clarification. The club needs to review this policy. Look at places like Barrio East, who charge one fee after 10pm. I am a local to shoreditch and many of my friends live here. I will not be going back to Trapeze, the bar/club policy is disorganised and the staff were rude and uphelpful. visited Trapeze on 03 Jun 2017

I booked a table from 7 - 10 pm on 26th May to eat and have some cocktails. The newish lovely waitress was amazing, however, a lady with dark hair who seemed to be a manager was simply rude. To make matters worse a guy who was wearing an earpiece came and told us at 8.30 that we'd have to move without offering any alternative. I won't be coming back for sure, we have too many choices in The area for that. visited Trapeze on 26 May 2017

Our experience was perfect. We're extremely grateful to the staff, security & Manager for being so welcoming and supporting our fundraising event. We managed to raise £89 which will go towards our workshops for women enrolled in our programme. One of the ladies enrolled has anxiety and not worked for some number of years and we've helped her to push past limiting beliefs, through the programm and access to our well being services she has started using her gift of baking to build a cake business. She almost didn't make the event on Sunday due to the anxiety but I'm delighted to share with you that she did make it and sold for the second time at the event and made £60. She left feeling empowered and smiling. The staff helped her to feel comfortable when she arrived later than the other stalls so thank you very much. We look forward to working with you again. The feedback about the energy in your venue has been very positive thank you again for allowing us to use the venue visited Trapeze on 21 May 2017

Great service from the table waitresses, friendly door staff, all very accommodating.

Service was a little bit slow to start with. I guess that the servers were waiting for the whole party to arrive maybe, as we came in, in dribs and drabs. It would have been nice to be looked after from the get-go but once the first sharer cocktail was served the party really picked up. Great music, friendly staff, very good time. visited Trapeze on 19 May 2017

I actually had a really good night. Didn't spend much time on the main bar but had a good old dance downstairs in the basement. I found the staff and security to be pleasant. The smoking area outside was my only niggle as it was a bit cramped on the area in the street but otherwise a great night with a great mix of people and atmosphere. visited Trapeze on 13 May 2017

The actual service and quality of food was very good and the happy hour drinks were amazing, we we waited 15-20 mins for our food after we had ordered, however 2 members of our party did have to wait up to an additional 30mins for their food on top of the 20 minute we had already waited and the fries were all wrong. They did redeem themselves by reducing the bill and adding extras to our birthday cake. I would definitely go again. visited Trapeze on 28 Apr 2017

Great night in general. However, the booking option to be moved from The booth to high tables etc doesn't work for big groups. We noticed that we were asked to leave the tables for smaller groups and as it was getting busier we didn't have the chance to move anywhere. I suggest if a booking is made for a big group ignore this option as your friends get the feeling of being rushed to pay a bill and then left ignored by staff. Customers should be looked after until the end of the experience. Angel visited Trapeze on 22 Apr 2017

Hi Angel, thank you for your comment. We take your input into consideration and this is an option that we will no longer offer as it can be too difficult to handle on the night for both customers and staff. Still glad to know that you enjoyed the rest of the night and hope to see you another time ! Best

I booked a table at trapeze for my 25th birthday for 15 people, now I was dubious at first regarding some of the negative reviews but I thought it looked like a cool venue so just went with it. Now!... the table upstairs was great for what I wanted few drinks and a chat with my friends before heading downstairs to the 'club' (bad idea). The staff upstairs serving our table were okay but tried to charge my friends extra for table service lol. Had we'd known this extra fee they would of just went to the bar themselves (which was 3 feet away) also a few days leading up to my booking I received what I believe is just a generic automatic email stating 'it's your birthday with us you will get a free bottle of prosecco'. I arrived to a prosecccoless table, when I questioned where is my birthday bottle? I was made to PROVE I received the email. So after trailing through several emails my friends and I finally got some bubbles. Having booked a table and paid a deposit and reached your 150 minimum spend you think you'd just be able to stroll down to the club down stairs right? NOPE. Getting into the so called club was like pulling teeth. Firstly they wanted us to go back outside to que up and pay 10 quid each. After one of my friends haggled with the doormen he decided to give us some flyers which gave you 5 quid entry instead. Oh and you can't use your card so we had to go outside to get cash then que back up for the 'club'. Once we finally reached the door to the 'club' we were greeted by a rather pleasant lady... NOT. The female door person was one of the most rude human beings I have ever came across, it was like some sort of military operation getting your ID checked you weren't even allowed to speak! If you hate your job and members of the public so much I think you should rethink your 'career' right? Anyways we finallllllly get into the 'club' which was absolutely tragic so dead and not what we expected at all just a very basic dark dingy room with average music. All in all I had a good night but that was thanks so my amazing friends. My advice would be to STAY UPSTAIRS. I'm even reluctant to try and claim back my deposit because it will probably be so much of a chore. visited Trapeze on 08 Apr 2017

Food and drinks were great. Table service was painfully slow. There was only one waiter even though it was busy, and he spent more time sitting and schmoozing customers than taking orders. We had to wait ages to get the bill, and then ages again to pay by card once we'd got the bill. We gave up waiting and went to the bar to pay, but still had to wait a while. It was 25 minutes between deciding we needed to go, and actually being able to leave - too long. We needed to go and it was stressful to wait so long. I'd think twice about returning. visited Trapeze on 05 Apr 2017

We all wanted to leave literally the second we got there. The basement was at the same time cold yet crowded and nobody was dancing. Upstairs was slightly better but not by much. The only reason we stayed for as long as we did was because of the high cover charge. Bridget visited Trapeze on 31 Mar 2017

Booked for 14 people and specified when booking that we wanted to eat. Was sent menus and never made aware this was an issue. Got there on the night and our area for 14 barely sat 7 and we were told there was no way they would have taken a sit down booking for 14 to eat. The manager managed to add on another table but didn't once apologise and basically intimated it was our mistake and behaved as if he was doing us a favour sorting it out. We ordered food and it came relatively quickly bar one meal which didn't arrive. When we questioned where it was we were told they had run out of burger buns. They then made a burger without the bun but it took about 15 mins and everyone else had finished eating. Also, the club in the venue does not open until half 10, which would have be handy to know beforehand. On the positive side, the cocktails are great, the food was good, the venue had a good vibe. We had a lot of fun. The music was absolutely brilliant. Just a shame the night started off so badly. visited Trapeze on 18 Mar 2017

Trapeze floor Staff couldn't do enough to make you feel welcome and looked after for all to enjoy their experience. Great soul and funk DJ. It was a Shame the bar staff weren't as attentive as it took us ages to get served as there were extremely slow and couldn't remember orders so had to keep checking back the order. Very frustrating when trying to get served during happy hour restrictions. Also had a round where we were missing a drink. visited Trapeze on 17 Mar 2017

We went to the Trapeze bar to celebrate a birthday on a wowcher which included 4 cocktails and a food platter. The deal was good, although the veggie platter was not as interesting as the meat platter. Drinks were interesting and new, service at the beginning was great, although slowly decreased once the bar filled up. We reserved a table until 19:30 and the next reservation only started at 20:00, however we were brought the bill at exactly 19:30 and told to vacate the table as the other party had arrived early and they wanted to give them the table. Which meant we had to drink our last drinks standing near the exit, although potentially could have finished them until 19:45. Therefore only 3 instead of 5 stars as this could have been handled better. visited Trapeze on 17 Mar 2017

The service, the ambience, the music, the space ... everything was impeccable! I went there was for my 25th Birthday and had hired the mezzanine area - it was perfect as we had our own space but at the space time could enjoy the bar's atmosphere! The service was very good and everyone was very friendly and helpful. I was impressed with the security to ensure only my party was allowed in the mezzanine area - this let me enjoy my event and not worry about our space and belongings. And the happy hour always helps !! Overall a great experience- highly recommend it! Simmi visited Trapeze on 10 Mar 2017

Disappointing.. wouldn't bother returning. Looks much better on the TV than in real life. Expensive cocktails served in paper cups... Please can you train your staff to acknowledge that a service charge added is DISCREATIONARY and returning to a customer to ask for the balance after they have paid is not acceptable. Service is and should be completely discretionary and at the customers choice. Adding 12.5% to a bill where the customer has had one drink in my mind not justified. visited Trapeze on 09 Mar 2017

Poorly ran. Staff kept forgetting orders we had to wait ages for everything. Kept getting moved from table to table as well even though we had booked a table.. when we made the booking they said it was for two hours but we can keep the table for longer then that. However when the 2 hours had been, we were moved to a standing table even though we had platters of food! Staff just didn't seem on the ball at all. visited Trapeze on 10 Mar 2017

I was so looking forward to celebrating my birthday at Trapeze - the venue looked so cool online. I called to book a table for 10 guests for dinner and drinks and the person who took my details didn’t hesitate with my request and said that a booth could be booked. Unfortunately, when we arrived the booth only fit 6 guests. The manager initially didn’t want to speak with us regarding the matter and when she did turn up, was not very polite or apologetic regarding the error which was obviously their fault - not ours. After some time, she finally managed to get us an additional table and chairs. The service was very slow and we resorted to just going up to the bar to buy drinks. The food was ok, however one of my friends who ate the fish sandwich got ill and threw up as a result. He wasn’t drunk, he had less than 3 drinks and no shots! The bouncers kicked him out as a result ending our night earlier than planned. I know that normally it takes a bit longer for food poisoning to kick in, however, prior to this meal we all ate the same food for the past 2 days. Knowing how sensitive and reactive my friend is to food, there is no question that the fish sandwich made him ill. The only saving grace about the night was the good music. I wouldn’t recommend this venue for large groups or for food. Ana visited Trapeze on 04 Mar 2017

Dear Ana, we apologize for the delay in getting back to you, we wanted to investigate this further. Firstly we would like to apologize on the mistake that was made about your dinner booking: we have since changed and clarified our booking procedures and no longer accept more than 8 people – a booth’s capacity – for dinner unless a special request is made sufficiently early for us to be able to accommodate. We take your complaint about the food very seriously, we did leave contact details in order to process the alleged food poisoning case but have not heard anything yet. We have checked all our cooking temperature records and all have been completed in accordance with HACCP guidelines however for us to log a AFP case for our external food safety regulators to examine we need a form completed. I’m sorry to hear that your friend was escorted out –usually when someone starts being sick it is 99% of the time because of alcohol and we cannot allow overly intoxicated customers to stay in the premises for their own safety. I’m glad to hear that at least you enjoyed our selection of great music thanks to our DJ of the night, El Mariachi. Once again we apologise for the issues you experienced and hope it did not overshadow any previous positive visits to Trapeze. Morgane

Nice cocktails but very disappointed that they shut off all the draft beer at 9.30pm so instead of paying a fiver for a pint (not too bad for London) it was £4.70 for half a pint can- not great!!! visited Trapeze on 04 Mar 2017

Reply from Trapeze

Hi There, thanks for leaving us your comments. Really pleased you enjoyed the cocktails and we're sorry about the draft being turned off but as we turn into a club in the later hours it is unsafe to serve Draft as it just ends up on the floors and creates slip hazards.

I wrote a review in regards to my night and how upset i was at what happened when I was denied free entry to the MAIN bar which is what I booked for and put my name on the list for, I then got a response from trapeze saying that it clearly states in the agreement that free entry is only granted to the main bar and not the basement. If the person who replied to my review actually thought to read my review they would know that I only mentioned the main bar for free entry not the basement being that I am quite capable of reading and know that the basement was not an option for free entry. In my opinion this adds to the fact that Trapeze has one again failed me as a customer. I look forward to hearing the response to this review, as I am sure it will be quite entertaining.

I paid £34 for 8 of us to go to a 90s and 00s event at Trapeze for my birthday which I was very excited about. Door organization was poor, we had guestlist and no-one was able to confirm which of the 3 queues we were supposed to be in. When we eventually got in, I had a standing table booked in the bar area which we couldn't find. A member of staff managed to help us and our table was being used by other people and the sign to say it was reserved was completely hidden. When we then left the bar area to go down to the basement for the 90s and 00s event, we had to queue back outside. They weren't charging for entry and did not want to see my tickets so I essentially wasted £34 buying tickets on here that were not needed. When inside the DJ was rubbish, most of the music played was unknown 90s/00s music with some gems in between (I could have got a better playlist off Spotify). To top off our bad experience at Trapeze, there was a very drunk guy that kept harassing the females in our group and we felt very uncomfortable, he would not leave us alone despite telling him to get lost. My boyfriend tried to ask a bouncer to get rid of this guy, to which the bouncer just laughed in his face and said the guy was just drunk. NOT HELPFUL. I had to complain multiple times to get the bouncers to have a word with the drunk guy (who had absolutely no idea what was going on and couldn't comprehend a sentence) to get him to leave us alone but he kept coming back. Very disappointed with a birthday night out at Trapeze that I was very excited about. Sophie visited Trapeze on 18 Feb 2017

I turned up to trapeze at my scheduled time. I put names on the list thinking that there would be no charge for the bar. There ended up being a charge so I decided not to go. I was under the impression that since our names were on the list that it would be free, if it will not be free then that should be stated before hand. visited Trapeze on 18 Feb 2017

Hi there, I'm sorry you got confused but the confirmation email that comes with the guest list very clearly states that free entry is for the main bar only. It also says that the basement club is separate from the Guest list. Thank you

Iam sorry to leave a bad review but we did not enjoy one moment of the night . As we entered the venue it was fine but inside it as overcrowded and the bar area was very dirty and drinks available was limited we order our drinks and we were given plastic glasses one member of our party order a beer and was givein a can of beer and no glass and told no glass you have to drink out of the can . What the f if I wanted to drink out of a can I would have satyed at home . Any way we did not even botherd to finished our drinks off we left and went somewhere else .

I went to Trapeze for a joint birthday with my friend. Great music - perfect to dance to. They play some absolute classics that's perfect for every age. It's not too pretentious but still cool. The service is great too. I lost my bag and they found it really quickly. It's pretty busy and rammed, but that's the only downside, and expected when it's so good.

Absolutely took the piss in the most massive way - i had a table booked for 2, when i arrived the table turned out to be infront of the dj booth on the dance floor that people were using to put their drinks on, the waiter/manager/whoever he was apologized and offered us a couple of drinks on the house, no sooner had our drinks arrived than they were immediately cleared away again before we had a chance to drink them, we then asked for replacements which never came. To make the whole thing even more insulting, the whoel time there were 2x empty booths and what appeared to be a whole floor upstairs that we could have been sitting in. We then tried to go to the club downstairs and were told that we would have to go back outside and queue to get in despite their being an entrance from the inside marked "club", when we got through the quese the same bouncer that had already let me into the bar and stamped me earlier, then refused me entry because my id was not good enough - im 33 years old and i look it c- at this point we left. I was on a 1st date and this was literally one of the worst experiences i have ever had - I will be going out of my way to tell everyone who will listen NOT to go to trapeze..ever.

There was no piping in or toast to the haggis on the Burns Night event. The portion size of the meal was very small. The whisky on arrival was poor and no option to upgrade. Celidh band was good but limited space for dancing. Simon visited Trapeze on 25 Jan 2017

To be honest it was a good evening however this was more due to the attitude of everyone who attended i.e everyone got involved in the dancing. In terms of the organisation it just felt as if it was done very last minute, for a start i don't think the organisers had any idea of what a ceilidh is, the dance floor was tiny and definately not suitable for an event such as this. It actually took some of the guests to make the decision to move some of the tables further back from the dance area. Food was ok however it arrived 50 minutes late, if something is advertised for 7 then it should arrive at 7, portions were also small, it was more like a starter. Positives on the night were, a good band, a decent whisky offered and a good atmosphere. Jim visited Trapeze on 25 Jan 2017

Friends and I went to the Celildh for Burns night. Design my night's ticketing system was down. When I called the venue the organizer, Hayden, went out of her way to make sure that we had tickets and that I had the appropriate confirmations. In this way, service was among the best I've had in London. Cheers guys! Salma visited Trapeze on 25 Jan 2017

After hearing mixed reviews about Trapeze I was unsure of what it would be like as it was my first time going there. Booked a table for myself and friends for my birthday and had an amazing time! The bar itself isn't that big but the staff were extremely friendly and accommodating, the atmosphere and music was good, it wasn't too overcrowded, and the best part was that the drinks were half price!! I would defo recommend a night out here! visited Trapeze on 13 Jan 2017

We held our staff party of 50 people in the mezzanine of Trapeze, A perfect space for a party of our size. Jenny and the team could not have been more accommodating, We felt really looked after, and all enjoyed the evening. The photo booth was the star of the show. so much fun! We would have no hesitation planning another party there. THANK YOU!!!! visited Trapeze on 21 Jan 2017

Was not what we were expecting at all. We thought we had reserved a table in the club but apparently there are no tables in the club and we were not even allowed to go down there! The bar was completely packed so you could barely move, the staff were rude and miserable, but they were rushed off their feet. Not a great venue, we won't be returning.

Seems like this bar exists to fleece customers, circus theme is a bit tacky. Atmosphere wasn't great and had a lady hovering over us to take orders in order to bill us service charge. The cocktails were not pleasant. Didn't go down to the club as the group I was with decided to up sticks and go to Matchbox instead which turned out to be much better. Only good thing I can say is that the customer service when booking was good. visited Trapeze on 17 Dec 2016

The night I went it was pretty quiet. Didn't get busy until a little after midnight. The dress code was quite casual so not a dressy night out. The music was okay if you like house.

Really disappointed. When we got there, we only had one stool in our table. Nobody brought us one until we asked. There was no menu either and when we managed to get one, it only had burgers, unlike the one on the website and what they send to you via email when you book. We only stayed 15 minutes and left. Awful. Do not recommend. visited Trapeze on 17 Dec 2016

Love it there. It was shame that getting a dinner table was like finding a unicorn but apart from that, very friendly staff and loved the drinks. visited Trapeze on 17 Dec 2016

Although the staff accommodated our relatively large reservation on a pretty busy Friday night in December (with about a weeks notice), we were disappointed with the club entry policy. My party of 10 guests along with myself had pre bought tickets and had already been drinking in the main bar but were told we still had to queue to get into the club section. This was very frustrating as it didn't make much sense to queue again to get back into what was essentially the same venue. This meant that our night ended earlier than expected. (There are several other venues in Shoreditch which have an independent club and bar but within the same venue, where you aren't expected to queue again for entry). This left a sour taste in the mouth. visited Trapeze on 16 Dec 2016

Firstly, when I made a booking with Angelo about 10 days before my booking I was informed that nothing had been booked. Someone rang me a couple of days before I wanted to come to Trapeze saying they got my request for the booking online. I was slightly confused as I had already spoken to someone from your team. However, the person I spoke to (Hayden - I think) was very helpful and professional and confirmed the booking. I booked the table for 15 people from 7-10pm. When I got there, the table was smack bang in the middle of the dance floor, which resolved in getting pushed in the back, drinks dropped on us and abusive behaviour from other punters. In the end, I wasn't happy and I complained to the manager on the night. Within 20 mins, he was able to move a party, clear the tables and move my party to the free booth. Once he had done this, I was very grateful and I was able to enjoy my night at ease. As much as I enjoyed myself, I wasn't happy with how unorganised my booking was. However, once I was sat in the booth, that is when my night actually started and continued to go on. visited Trapeze on 02 Dec 2016

What a great night!!!! Fantastic venue!!!!!!!! We had our Christmas party at Trapeze and had the most amazing evening. The staff were so helpful, making sure everything was planned beforehand and made sure we were happy throughout the night! The mezzanine is a great space to hire out exclusively, with the freedom of enjoying the rest of the venue. Definitely recommend it. Thanks Trapeze Team XxX Aby visited Trapeze on 02 Dec 2016

Really disappointed by rude waitress Bianca on Sat 3rd. We had the table booked for 7:30pm-8:30pm and were rushed off before this time. Given that it was my birthday, it was actually quite unpleasant. Great venue, but sadly, rude staff. visited Trapeze on 03 Dec 2016
