Latest 5 reviews of Ginglik
Ginglik used to be underground public toilets but has been converted into a club/comedy venue. Despite the new décor, you still feel like you are in underground toilet. I have been to a club night and a few comedy nights and each time I go the place is hot, stuffy, and claustrophobic. The drinks are averagely priced, and the music is good on a club night.

The best thing about Ginglik in Shepherd's bush is that it is a little bit special. Located in a disused, but refurbished, underground toilet under the Green you feel as if you have walked into a private member's bar.
This, however, is also Ginglik's downfall. It is so discreet there are few locals that have heard of it and even though it can be heaving at weekends it can be fairly empty...more
