Ronnie Scott’s Jazz Club Reviews 23

So, to explain one important point, I was using a very large, heavy, electric wheelchair. We happened to pass by Ronnie Scott's, it was about 7.30pm. I quizzed one of the security guys if it was open, as we were still in partial Covid lockdown. Yes was the answer but the band had started already. Before we knew it, the security team were on the case, getting the heavy duty ramp, and sorting a spot indoors for me. Super efficient, couldn't do more to help. The girls and guys of the security team went above and beyond, and could quite easily have said there was no space left. The band were fantastic, and it was a delight and made our trip that much more special. Would add that they prefer advanced notice (by phone) is given for wheelchair users to give them time to get seating prepared. A last note for other wheelchair users, there is an accessible toilet and plenty of space to manoeuvre.

We made a booking of a table for our wedding night party and were assured our guests would be able to get in. BUT while double checking this by phone a couple of days before the wedding, the office staff said that we would need to pay a lot for a VIP package if we actually wanted to be sure all our guests could get in the club (and not just queue outside and possibly not get in at all if it was busy). When we called them out on this sudden change in promise, they cancelled our booking with a rude note. In the end we had a better time elsewhere.
