The overhaul in spring 2007 is still looking remarkably fresh, considering the hammering it receives from the hedonistic and mobbed parties that frequent this hugely popular Clapham bar. From top down, it's gorgeous, modern and worth a visit. Best bit? The large roof terrace with sweeping lengths of wood and full sun nearly the whole day, which sees tanned types lounging their way through the cocktail menu in warmer months. The main bar with its long banquette seating and sunken area sees plenty of house nights from local DJs and Antipodean breaks and D&B parties. The members' lounge - all flocked wallpaper, own kitchen and loos - is available to hire. The short food menu is reasonably priced and offers mostly South-east Asian fare.

Firstly, its not a 3 floor place like advertised. I was there on a friday night and only the ground floor was open. Being located in a place like Clapham, its not worth paying to enter this place.
I was there during the offer period(buy one get one free till midnight) which I did not know about; the bartender who served us did not bother to even tell us this. Hence, I ended up paying full price for my drinks. When I mentioned this to the bar tender, she said it was my fault! Absolutely useless. Only bright side is good music.
I suggest going to one of the many other places Clapham has to offer!

I booked the sunken area on Friday for the Licked party and just wanted to say to the team at The White House..."Thank You soo much for a great nite!" The music was great, the venue was perfect and staff were really cool..Thank you cant wait for the nxt party!!

Had a great night at the white house... music was good, set the mood amazingly. in regards to the overpriced drinks, it reflected the level of clientel (in comparison to infernos) so we were all hapy to pay a little extra, also the cocktail list is great....creative and delicious.
Door staff were friendly, which is very rare these days. I hate walking into a club in a bad mood because of the rude door staff, but here it certainly not the case. They are all up for a bit of banter.
In short, we had an all round great night. Looking forward to going back.

Pretentious and overpriced (in my opinion) although admittedly the decor is quite funky.
