WELCOME POLICY 🏳🌈 🏳⚧
Everyone is welcome at Poodle Club. We are a female owned club that was created as a place where guests can feel safe to enjoy live comedy without sexism, homophobia, transphobia, racism, fat shaming, etc. Our acts are carefully curated to make sure everyone enjoys the show.
DOGS WELCOME 🐶
We are proud to be Britain's only dog-friendly comedy club. Betsy the house poodle enjoys meeting other well-behaved pooches.
CARD SALES ONLY
We do not accept cash at the bar or box office, cards or electronic payments only.
YOUR VISIT
Doors open at 7.00pm for pre-show drinks with fabulous 70's & 80's pop and disco. We are an intimate boutique comedy theatre bar, so PLEASE ARRIVE IN GOOD TIME to get drinks and be seated by 7.45 for the smooth running of the show and everyone's enjoyment. Latecomers may be turned away with no refunds offered. Seating is first-come first-served, so early arrival is recommended, groups of 3 or more are advised to arrive early so you can be seated together. Fresh hot popcorn, crisps and nuts are available at the bar. The show runs until about 10.30 with two intervals. Pre-booked tickets bought online are £10 plus a £1 booking fee and are available until 5.45 pm show day. Tickets on the door will be £15. Line-ups are subject to change.
THE VENUE
We have installed a new state-of-the-art ventilation system which delivers 500 litres of fresh air per second, making us one of the best ventilated small venues in the country. In keeping with the current guidelines, mask wearing is at your discretion, and we have returned to our normal cinema-style row seating. We do ask that if you are feeling unwell or test positive for Covid, please stay at home and we will be happy to reschedule your visit up to 3pm on the day of the show.
ACCESSIBILITY
Our bar and seating area are on one level, and we have a portable ramp for the one step up at the entrance. Unfortunately, we were unable to make the loos accessible but we have an agreement with the pub over the road that our wheelchair-using guests can visit their loos. If you are a chair user planning to visit us, please pop us an email so we can prepare a seating area for you.
