What a truly fabulous night out!
Two of us got dressed to kill and headed for an evening of cabaret, we'd treated ourselves to a groupon offer which, for £27.50 gave us a three course meal, a glass of prosecco and an evening filled with entertainment.
The food was preordered which made the service super slick but our waitresses were also engaging, friendly, helpful and super hot! They were all beautiful.
After the cabaret and burlesque performances, a dance floor was rested in the centre of the room and it was instantly filled.
It is a perfect venue for hen dos and birthday parties. We had such a fun night and I can't wait to go back again.
We are a group of 84 people who are in Brigthon at a conference and were advised to contact Proud Cabare even though they have normally closed on Tuesdays. And they stood up for dinner and a slightly amputated show, but they made the evening great for us. Great food and nice show. can really be recommended.

I'm in a 5-star mood today as I'm dishing out top marks to Proud Cabaret. It's always my go to place to give out-of-towners a Brighton experience to remember and it never disappoints.
So named after founder Alex Proud, it's suitably apt for its positioning in Brighton's gay community of Kemp Town. Rightly so, they should be proud as they deliver a wonderfully saucy package of food and fun.
A three-course dinner, a singing compere and six glamorous performances from the three racy headliners makes for nearly four hours of fun, followed by a party 'til the early hours if you've got real staying power. Some may wince at the £34-£49 package deal, but you can catch their 2-4-1 offers on their website or Groupon to get a bargain night out. Expect restaurant prices on the booze though!
It does attract hen dos and birthday parties looking for a more sumptuous experience so it may not be for you if you prefer a more subdued affair. Wicked laughter is often the soundtrack of the evening.
Most recently, they've upped their performers and their portions so that your eyes and belly are more than satisfied. If you're super flash then you can go all Gatsby and hire out the entire place for private events. I wouldn't mind an invite!
Probably the best looking venue in the city, The Proud Cabaret is quite the establishment.
Over time, I have seen burlesque, Elvis (impersonator), Brazillian samba, Martha Wainwright and good old fashioned rock and/or roll here.
For kicking your heels up or just enjoying the show & fine food and drink, Proud Cabaret is another fine reason to venture out of town and into Kemptown.
I love proud - and have been to several events hosted there. only down side are ladies loos ...always crowed as usual for anywhere but bad door placement, and the bar is in rather inconvenient space at the top of the stairs and seemingly always understaffed (usually only ever 2 poor sods) the events are usually packed which makes for a great vibe but i recommend having a few drinks at home before you go so you don't mind the wait for the bar!
This might well be the smallest music venue in Brighton, but what lacks in size, it certainly makes up for on charm. Most people will have sat in bedrooms bigger than The Hanbury, but the intimate nature really adds to the atmosphere.
I watched Mr Hudson here last summer, the close proximity of the audience and performers meant that the whole place was electric. The retro decor is extremely impressive, far removed from the grimey venues that normally house such small gigs.
The glass dome ceiling and eccentric wall paper make this a fantastic venue for any occasion. The bar here is also very good, as is the food on offer. This was formerly a 'members only' club, but the decision to allow the general public entry is certainly our gain.
Located along George Street, the beautiful building considered 'the jewel of Kemptown' has had an array of awards bestowed on their cocktails delights, and against the elegant backdrop of luxurious rooms and a magnificent glass dome it's the perfect setting for cocktail grandeur. The list starts at £7 but the extensive menu offers indulgence of the highest kind, and particularly recommended are the Hanbury Spring Punch and the Cool Geyser. But if they don't quite take your fancy, custom cocktail creations are made on request. The award winning cocktails continue over at the affiliated Blanche House, clearly they're doing something right!
Currently closed, the Hanbury Club is one of the most beautiful venues in Brighton, perhaps too pretty for Brightons drinking habits hence the closure in late 2009. It is a shame because there were some very cool nights here, and the venue was given the most fantastic makeover by the previous owners. Perhaps it just failed to find its niche, plus it's a way out of town so perhaps not in the greatest spot for Brighton 's impulsive revelers that head for the water as if the ocean itself would soothe their thirsty souls. We await with baited breath for what the new owners will do with the place.

Shaped like some distant third or fourth cousin of the Taj Mahal (well, it has a domed roof!) the Hanbury Club is situated in far away Kemp Town. However, the Hanbury consistently pulls out the stops to make its patrons happy. Whether this means offering live music, comedy, cabaret or film nights, there is a great diversity to their programme and subsequently those who visit. The last time I went there was to a girl pop night, which was a baffling experience where 80% of the attendees were female. This meant an atmosphere free of excess testosterone was created and I was just able to dance and dance and dance. I have also been to film nights, where the venue seems like a completely different place. But that's the great thing about the Hanbury - it is diverse and versatile and well worth the bus/taxi fare to Kemp Town. It is not particularly cheap and the location isn't great, unless you are my friend who can see it from his doorstep. But these are literally the only negatives and there had to be some: nowhere is perfect.
Amazing show. The food is good, and I drink a little bit pricey. I had a great night.
Fabulous venue and atmosphere! The performers are fierce and a wonderful experience all round! Our server Sorcha is wonderful, friendly and brilliant, drinks were delicious and served quickly! Would recommend to anyone, a must visit in Brighton!
Sorcha is so lovely, so attentive and made us feel so welcome when we arrived! She has kept us topped up and well looked after! Amazing show, can’t wait to come back already!
Sorcha is a credit to the business x
Visited for friends hen party. Group of 10 of us sat across 2 adjacent booths. Great view of the stage. Lovely friendly waitress. Food was good, quite small but tasty. Plenty of bottomless drinks topped up. Good cocktails. The best part was the atmosphere and entertainment. The show was incredible! So uplifting! We were in awe. Would definitely come back again. Yes there is a service and cover charge but we read the t&C's and reviews beforehand so we were aware of this and it wasn't a big shock when we got the bill.
Omg what a place! The atmosphere was electric and the service was incredible! We went for the Drag Queen bottomless brunch and it was awesome! The food was delicious, the cocktails were strong and the service was flawless! Special shout out to Sorcha who provided the highest level of customer service the whole way through and, by the time we left, felt more like our friend than our waitress! Thank you!!! Xx
Absolutely excellent, loved every minute. Staff were so friendly and on the ball. Entertainment was phenomenal. 10/10
Sorcha served us and she was super friendly and so helpful, always making sure we were okay. Loved it !
First drag brunch ever and it was wonderful. Each performer and staff member was World class and incredibly talented, especially with host Ophelia. Highly recommend!!
What a show ladies! You are fab-u-lous!! Great songs, voices, and books ❤️ Ella 10/10 service, friendly, looked after pregnancy me like wonder woman, big love for Ella!
I’ve been to proud in London and this Proud venue is so much better. The food was very tasty and our server Sorcha was fun, courteous and very attentive. The drag shows were light hearted and amusing. I will be returning when I come back to Brighton!
Lovely service in a cosy venue with a great show. It was a fantastic night out with Loretta Harlow, Dave the Bear, Dolly Rocket and a few more!
