Update, October 2026: Tabu is now Rumour, open Wednesday to Saturday. This page describes Tabu as it was under the old name and is kept as a record; old Tabu prices have been removed because they do not apply to Rumour.

Tabu London nightclub was one of the top exclusive Mayfair spots for a one-of-a-kind London clubbing experience. This Tabu London nightclub review covers how tables and the guestlist worked at the venue.

Tabu London Nightclub Tables

A Tabu London nightclub table brought exceptional service, some advantages (fast-tracked entry and more), and the icing on the cake, the ability to order some of the most extravagant bottle shows in Mayfair.

Tabu London Nightclub Guestlist

The Tabu London nightclub guestlist was a very popular choice among visitors and international socialites, just like Tape London and Cirque Le Soir.

The Tabu nightclub guestlist came with complimentary drinks and access to the Tabu promoter table shared with other ladies on the guestlist.

The Tabu Club guestlist was reserved for ladies. Guys and mixed groups needed to book a table to access the venue.

Tabu London Nightclub Prices

Tabu's old table and guestlist prices no longer apply now that the club trades as Rumour. At Rumour, booths start from £1,000 minimum spend, and the ladies' guestlist is free to £20 on the door, depending on the night.

Tabu London Nightclub Menu

The Tabu London nightclub menu was stocked with every high-end brand and bottle you might have wanted for the perfect night out.

Tabu London Nightclub Dress Code

The Tabu London nightclub dress code was smart elegant, whether you were on the guestlist or had a table booking.

Heels or evening boots with heels were required for ladies, paired with a dress or an elegant pair of trousers and a top.

Gents were advised to wear dress shirts, smart trousers, and dress shoes or clean and elegant trainers.

Fancy dress, beachwear, and sportswear were not allowed for anyone.
