Cafe de Paris has closed. The club near Leicester Square, which first opened its doors in 1924, no longer operates, so there is no longer a Cafe de Paris guestlist or table to book, through London Night Guide or anyone else. If you were planning a dressed-up night in the West End, the open clubs below are the closest match.
Where to go instead of Cafe de Paris
All are open and taking bookings through London Night Guide as of October 2026.
- Cirque le Soir on Ganton Street, Soho: circus performers, fire breathers and acrobats work the room while the DJs play hip hop and RnB. Open Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Saturday.
- The Box on Walker's Court, Soho: a theatrical club where the performances are the main event. Open Wednesday to Saturday.
- Reign on Piccadilly: a showclub with live performance, open Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Saturday.
- 99 Regent Street (formerly Cuckoo Club), entrance on Swallow Street near Piccadilly Circus: hip hop and RnB upstairs, house downstairs, Wednesday to Saturday, 11pm to 4am, 19+.
What the Cafe de Paris guestlist was like
For reference only, as none of this applies any more: Cafe de Paris hosted club nights and celebrity parties near Leicester Square, and entry on a busy night went through a guestlist booked in advance. The dress code was chic and elegant, in heels, for the ladies, and smart casual with elegant shoes for the gentlemen. The open alternatives above expect the same kind of effort: see the Cirque le Soir dress code before you go.
