it is a dark dingy basement and that is it. i don't normally judge a club based on its decor and layout but this place takes the pi**!

20 quid entry to a hot, dark, and terribly designed basement, the tables are literally randomly strewn about the place with torn leather benches surrounding them. who pays 20 quid to get into a lounge? the african decor (and i am not exaggerating) consists of framed photos and african masks on the wall so it does feel like you are dancing (around the tables b/c there is no dance floor) in a dark basement.

the dj booth is literally a hole in the wall in the corner of the club with a pathetic looking disco ball over it. it just looks so out of place and sad.

i have no idea how this place got its reputation or why someone would queue for hours to get in, it is just not that special. the only nice thing about it is the staff and the toilets!

hey guys I went to Pangea last Saturday and was surprise as last time I went I never had a good time, but this week it wasn't crowded then it filled up lots of nice friendly people, lots of good looking people, nice and relaxed atmosphere.

I never even drank that much but still had a great party, never realized until I got home how sober I was (now that must be a good sign huh)

oh my god this place is a dump. my friend does club promotion and invited me to a night here at her table. i looked on the website and it looked cool enough so i popped down to see how it was. the place is the size of a shoebox and was so hot that i actually had to stop drinking alcohol and had to ask for glass of water. there is no dance floor and no private areas at all as the tables are randomly strewn about the club. to top it all off the club is in MASSIVE need of a total refurbishment. the leather benches are stained and tattered and there is so little decor it makes you feel like you are dancing in a dark basement (which at the end of the day is all this place really is).

the review below is accurate about the staff which are great but it is WAY too expensive (20 quid entry to a what is basically a lounge?) for what the club actually is. the website is misleading and the place looks totally different (and much nicer) in the photos

I've been to Pangaea quite a few times and it's not such a bad club.

The drinks are a bit overpriced hence why I've given it 4*. A bottle of wine is about £19 so it's not too bad, as clubs like this usually sell bottles for £30. But I've always found the staff to be quite friendly and helpful, the crowd to be welcoming, and the music to be fun. Also, cos of the layout of the club, it's quite easy to be sociable with other groups of people.
If you go earlyish or by the time everyone's up on the dancefloor, it's quite easy to get a table, I've found.
I know this is usually the case anyway but the only other thing about Pangaea is that the decor looks much nicer in the photos. A LOT NICER.

Right! Where to begin. I went to Pangaea last night (Friday). I'm a 22 year old white female from West London. I love Sean Paul, 50 Cent, etc... and I love to have a good night out with the girls. Basically, if you're the same then don't go to Pangaea....you'll hate it! It's way over priced to get in (£20) for how tiny the place is and its stupid layout. It has low ceilings and strange leather seats all over the place. Basically it's just loads of tables and seats. There's no specific dance floor and every one is on top of each other or the leather seat things. The music is crap - as is the DJ - it's just house beats over the top of strange songs like Eurhythmics and Michael Jackson. Then there's the strange drummer man who drums over all the songs and house beats. The drinks are stupidly over priced - £11 for a vodka and lemonade and God knows how much for champagne or a bottle of Vodka (which is the weird stuff anyway). I think the only way to have a good time in there is to be pissed off your face or high on Cocaine - which most people seemed to be to me! It's full of wannabes and posh kids with too much money that daddy gave to them to snort coke and drink champagne. The only “celebrities” we saw was Ben Lunt from Ship Wrecked and I have no idea why Prince Harry would have ever gone there! The only nice bit was the staff - bouncers are lovely as is the toilet attendant. I doubt I'd go back even if I got in for free! But at least I can say I've been!

I used to frequent Pangaea a couple of years ago as it was quite hype and a good place to chill out and meet interesting adults. I revisited the club last friday and it was a total wash out. The crowd was barely legal and the music was not the best. Overall, I did not have the best of nights and regretted wasting £20 to get into such a mediocre place.

I LOVE PANGEA! Ive been going to Pangea on a regular basis. It is the best club ive found in London. The Club is not pretentious like all the others. All the staff are friendly and polite from the doorman to the bar staff.

And it is a social club because the music is just at the right level to mingle. Which is great because the people are down to Earth and are not shallow like most London clubbers.

I loved Pangaea. We were going to Pacha but didn't get in but im glad we didn't because it is wicked in Pangea. It is small but when you have had a drink or ten, it's wicked. The drinks aren't too bad - it's £20.00 to get in but it's worth it.
