Proud Club and Bar

Well hidden in the central plaza building of Camden Stables Market is the club known as proud. It is a popular club where tickets are better if purchased in advance and door-staff are unreasonable and unorganised. Inside proud is made up I three rooms. The one on the far left dipped in deep red lights plays more popular and dancey tunes with a bar and the second room to the right is a very loud live acts and electro room with a stage. The third room off of the second is literally old stables which has been conveyed into private areas and a bar. Drinks are expensive at 8 quid for a double and mixer and going out of the venue to go to a cash point is strictly forbidden.

The issue really is that the staff are too bold and pushy and the music too loud to make this a great venue and it closes way too early in a Saturday night at only 2am with the emptying into some of London’s most unaccommodating pavement for some few hundred people. Overall 5/10 , the effect of the stables is a nice change but the customer service is spoilt by a few brutish doormen where many of the waiting staff are quite charming.

    Hey Greg, Perhaps if you want to be honest and up-to-date you should re-visit places and try out less hectic days of the week rather than a Saturday somewhere like Camden that gets filled with out-of-towners X

    I had the same experience, the security is so over the top, mandatory ID checks for everyone the night I was there, even myself and two friends who are clearly in our thirties. Too many places in London to contemplate going back. Even the bands seemed unhappy playing there. Awful experience. Shame because it could be nice
