Funky Buddha has closed; Itzel now operates at its Berkeley Street address. The Mayfair club no longer operates, so there is no longer any entry to buy, and the door prices that used to be listed on this page no longer apply. See the Itzel entry price guide for the venue that replaced it.

How entry worked at Funky Buddha
For reference only, as none of this applies any more: Funky Buddha opened on Thursday, Friday and Saturday. Guests on the free London Night Guide guestlist had a separate, faster queue and were expected at the door, while walk-in entry was never guaranteed and was at the door team's discretion. Saturday was the busiest night and the most selective door. A table booking included entry for the whole group, with the minimum spend going on bottles and mixers.
Entry terms at the open clubs differ by venue and night; for a comparison, see entry prices across London clubs.
