Highlights this weekend
On Friday 20th November we have Oh What A Wonderful Recession (8pm-2.30am) with "David Martini" so cool he is almost comotose on stage followed by the return of "Lady Adora " but after a season in Ibiza and a spell at Torture Garden don't get too close guys (or girls) . Then its DJ Paul Knight playing indie tinged 80s/90s/00s with a bit of rock too till carriages at 2.30am.
"David Martini" comes to us straight from performing in The Rat Pack as our very own Dean Martin absolutely oozing charm & sophistication. In fact this guy is so cool he is practically comatose. Except for one thing ........ ....he does so so love the ladies. So don't be surprised when he walks into the crowd and comes back with a beautiful lady to sing a love song too. Top notch singing and improv from cabaret's self proclaimed coolest cat
"Lady Adora", our sultry burlesque dancer & singer returns but watch out she's leant a few things from performing at Torture Garden and she is looking for male volunteers to submit to her will and she will not take no for an answer. As well as great songs from the 50s and 60s Lady Adora has a scintillating floor show and burlesque costumes to boot. Has to be seen to be believed!
After the shows from 10.30ish its disco and dancing as DJ Paul Knight of Living fame takes the controls spinning indie tinged 80s, 90s and 00s classics with a bit of rock too until carriages at 2.30am. All aided by tacky original 70s/ 80s visuals and rubbish cheapo lighting for that real School Disco feel.
Oh and don't forget to claim our recession busting complimentary round of tequila & sambucca shots for all reserved area bookings every Friday
Entry Complimentary all night - book your guestlist or reserved area online from our Bookings Page. But do come early as every Friday and Saturday we have a cabaret or burlesque performers with the show commencing at 9pm on the dot and our prima donnas don't like to be kept waiting!

On Saturday 21st November we have an All Star line up at It's Party (8pm-2.30am) with super sexy singer burlesque performer "Miss Kitty " but is she Marilyn Monroe, Liza Minnelli or both? Then it's the return of old blue eyes himself "Michael Campari" but watch out as he does so like the ladies .........Followed about 10.30pmish by Eastenders & football celebrity DJ, "Dave DiskoJuice" playing 80s, 90s and Ibiza tinged disco and house till beach buggies at 2.30am.
"Miss Kitty" performing her new character "Marilyn Minnelli" exclusively at the Peacock. Our little Blonde Bombshell starts off all Marilyn Monroe like performing songs like " I want to be Loved By You" and "Happy Birthday Mr President" but after the break returns as Lisa Minnelli and starts singing hits from Cabaret. On Wow!
Michael Campari starts the evening off as "Old Blue Eye" himself oozing charm & sophistication but after the break comes back as" Michael Hadley" with his brilliant take on New Romantic classics from Spandau Ballet, ABC and Duran Duran. Complete with make up, lounge lizard suit oh and just oozing charm everywhere he goes. But don't get too close as he's not happy without a microphone in one hand and ... a girl in the other!
After the shows from 10.30ish its disco and dancing with our very own Eastenders celebrity DJ Dave DiskoJuice spinning 80s, 90s with a bit of Ibiza tinged disco and house until beach buggies at 2.30am. All aided by tacky original 70s/ 80s visuals and rubbish cheapo lighting for that real School Disco feel
Entry Complimentary all night (guestlist for guaranteed entry) - book your guestlist or reserved area online from our Bookings Page. But do come early as the shows commence at 9pm on the dot and our prima donnas don't like to be kept waiting! DJs and dancing after from 10.30pm ish till carriages at 2.30am. Early (pre 9pm) and late (post 10.45 pm) reserved areas available..
The styling
The Peacock is as effortlessly stylish as it is comfortable paying homage to a mishmash of styles from Rococo onwards.
Think Ercol 1950s table nests perched next to Georgian chaise longues with 50's Scandinavian modular sofas around a 60's G Plan Hi -Fi console. As you enter the bar there is huge Golden peacock to greet you and a Victorian pulpit at the back of the bar for our Djs to preach from.
All this set in a Victorian drawing room with a Chesterfield fronted horseshoe bar. Maybe it should not work but it just does!
The Peacock changes with the seasons too beginning the week as a comfortable and relaxing bar before turning into a full on club late night Friday and Saturdays.
See for yourself on the Gallery page
The bar
At The Peacock we have a drinks selection to die for. As well as those so-boring standard beers & spirits we boast London's widest range of Belgian fruit beers on tap and in bottles with over 25 different flavours. Classics such as the draught Strawberry Fruli Fruit Beer are complemented by more exotic flavours from mango through to chocolate via banana and lemon - come and taste for yourself.
On the spirits side we have an exclusive range of Monastic Meads brewed by monks in Suffolk - the choice of Kings since William the Conqueror but now available to non Royalty too! We also stock the full range of Geneva flavoured Gins - all thirty of them!
On a more modern tip we boast a world class cocktail and wine list designed by master mixologist Emiliano Casciello of Oxo Tower and Atlantic Bar & Grill fame, including his signature Taj Mahal - a Cosmopolitan with an Eastern Twist. He's aided by our hand chosen team of mixologists picked for their bubbling friendly outgoing personalities as well as great mixing skills.
However our resting thespian mixologists do like to flirt with the girls so do'nt be suprised when your order a cocktail if they say "Noooo isss toooo borrring I make you somethinnng speciallllll" with a little wiggle or two or three of their hips. Well we are a burlesque club after all - what do you expect?
At last Battersea and Clapham have a cocktail bar with real panache and style which does'nt take itself too seriously! We are more High Society than Lost Society (meeeeooow)
See our Food and Drinks pages for more details.
The burlesque, cabaret and Djs at the weekend
We begin the entertainment early at the Peacock at 9pm on the dot with two great burlesque & cabaret shows with anything from Sinatra to Tranny's on stage and we always include a lot of audience participation too!. Oh we might throw in a bit of comedy in as well if we think it's risque enough. After the shows from 10.30ish its disco and dancing with our resident Djs spinning 70s 80s, 90s, 00s tunes with a bit of funky house thrown in too until carriages at 2.30am.
On Fridays from 8pm-2.30am we have "Oh What a Lovely Recession" with legendary DJ / Impresario Paul Necklace of Living fame bringing you the best and the worst of 70s 80s, 90s, 00s - dance away the recession blues to the soundtrack of your life.
On Saturdays from 8pm-2.30am we bring you "It's a Party" with the wonderful Dave Diskojuice behind the controls for more 70s 80s, 90s, 00s treats just like your house warming party from many years ago.
