Dinner and Clubbing in Mayfair: Where to Eat, Then Dance
Dinner and clubbing in Mayfair in one evening: the venues that do both under one roof, the clubs to walk to after dinner, and how to time the night.
By Henry Ashcroft, Mayfair Area Specialist
Dinner and clubbing in Mayfair works best when the two happen at one address or a short walk apart. As of October 2026 the simplest single-address options in and around Mayfair are Maddox on Mill Street, with dinner upstairs and the club below, and Inca London on Argyll Street, where a dinner show runs above Maya, the club beneath it. This guide sets out which venues do both, which nights they open, how to time the evening and how to handle the handover from table to dance floor.
Why Dinner-to-Dance Works
The usual London night out means dinner in one place, drinks in another, then a queue at a club door around midnight. Every move costs time, taxis and momentum, and groups tend to lose someone between venues.
Booking dinner and the club as one plan removes most of that. Either you stay in the same building, or you pick a restaurant within a ten-minute walk of a club that already has your table reserved. Mayfair is compact enough that almost any restaurant in the area is a short walk from its clubs, which is why it suits this kind of evening better than most of London.

Nights, hours and minimum spends are as of October 2026 and can change for special events, so confirm them when you book.
Maddox: Dinner Upstairs, Club Downstairs
Maddox on Mill Street, just off Conduit Street, is the classic Mayfair dinner-to-dance address. Dinner is upstairs, and when the plates are cleared the evening moves downstairs into the club without anyone needing to step back outside. Alongside the main room there is the Green Room, a second, smaller space, so the night can change pace without changing venue.
Nights and hours: Thursday, Friday and Saturday, 11pm to 6am (as of October 2026).
Tables: from a £1,000 minimum spend (as of October 2026). Age 20 and over.
Dress: smart. Dress for dinner in Mayfair and you are dressed for the club.
Best for: couples, date nights and groups who want the whole evening in one building.
Inca London and Maya: Dinner Show, Then the Club Below
On the Soho side of Regent Street, a few minutes' walk from Mayfair and next to the London Palladium, Inca London serves South American food with a dinner show of dancers, acrobats, singers and DJs. Secret London includes INCA among London's restaurants with live shows, which makes it the most obvious choice if you want live entertainment with dinner rather than background music.
Beneath it is Maya, formerly Luna Club London, a luxury lounge and members'-style club inspired by ancient Mayan culture. Dinner at Inca and a table at Maya make one evening at a single address.
Nights and hours: Maya opens Friday and Saturday, 11pm to 3am (as of October 2026).
Tables: prices are confirmed when you book. Any figures you find online for the old Luna club do not apply to Maya.
Entry: 18 and over with photo ID, smart dress.
Best for: birthdays, celebrations and groups who want a show with dinner.
Selene and Dear Darling: Dinner Nearby, Then the Club
Not every good club serves dinner, and two of the strongest late options near Mayfair work better as a two-venue plan.
Selene sits at 4 Winsley Street in Fitzrovia, just north of Oxford Circus and a short walk from Mayfair. It opens Thursday to Sunday, 11pm to 4am, with tables from an £800 minimum spend (as of October 2026). It also has private bowling lanes that can be booked with a table, which gives a group something to do between dinner and the dance floor.
Dear Darling Mayfair is at 91 Jermyn Street in St James's, a short walk south of Piccadilly. It opens Thursday to Sunday until 6am, with tables from an £800 minimum spend (as of October 2026), and age 18 and over.
For either, book dinner at a Mayfair or St James's restaurant of your choice, then walk over for a table reserved from around 11pm. If you want a drink in between, our guides to cocktail bars before a night out and Mayfair hotel bars cover the options.
How to Time a Dinner-to-Dance Evening
| Step | Maddox | Inca and Maya | Two-venue plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Book dinner for | 8:30pm to 9pm | 8pm to 8:30pm | 8pm to 8:30pm |
| Allow for dinner | 1.5 to 2 hours | 2 to 2.5 hours, with the show | 1.5 to 2 hours |
| Move to the club | From 11pm | From 11pm | Walk over around 11pm |
| Club closes | 6am | 3am | Selene 4am, Dear Darling 6am |
Three points make the handover smooth:
- Book the table with the dinner. A table reserved for 11pm means no door queue and no wondering whether the group will get in together.
- Arrive close to opening. Clubs fill from around midnight at weekends, and early arrival makes it easier to settle in.
- Plan the journey home before you go out. Our guide to getting home from Mayfair covers late trains, Night Tube and taxis.
For an evening built around two people rather than a group, see our date night in Mayfair guide. If the night runs long, where to eat after clubbing has the late options.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which Mayfair club has a restaurant?
Maddox on Mill Street has dinner upstairs and the club downstairs, open Thursday to Saturday until 6am as of October 2026. Inca London on Argyll Street, just across Regent Street from Mayfair, pairs a dinner show with Maya, the club beneath it.

Inca London at 8-9 Argyll Street runs a dinner show with dancers, acrobats, singers and DJs, and Maya downstairs opens Friday and Saturday from 11pm.
Do I need to book dinner and the club separately?
Not if you book through us: we can arrange the dinner reservation and the club table as one plan. If you book yourself, reserve both in advance, because weekend tables go early.
What should I wear for dinner and clubbing in Mayfair?
Smart: what you would wear to a good Mayfair restaurant works for the clubs too. Avoid sportswear and trainers that look casual. Maya asks for smart dress and photo ID.
What time should I book dinner?
Between 8pm and 9pm. That leaves time for a relaxed dinner and a move to the club from 11pm, when Maddox, Maya, Selene and Dear Darling open.
