Writer's picture: Team WrittenTeam Written

In a city teeming with first-rate culinary destinations, Ambassadors Clubhouse graces Heddon Street like a luxurious, Punjabi-inspired breeze—sure to capture the attention of Mayfair’s most discerning diners. The brainchild of the esteemed JKS Restaurants group—culinary masterminds behind Gymkhana and Brigadiers—this newcomer merges Indian party-mansion glamour with a contemporary flair for playful cocktails, late-night revelry, and exceptional food.


Upon entering through richly patterned doors, guests encounter a mosaic of shimmering gold fixtures, intricate tiling, and mirror-lined walls—a tribute to bold opulence at its finest. The Ground Floor revolves around a gilded dome etched with the restaurant’s crest, perched proudly above a tiled bar. Whether perched at the counter or seated in one of the plush banquettes, you’ll sense an immediate air of convivial elegance.


Continue on to the Verandah, a jasmine-scented haven enclosed by an awning that allows for comfortable al fresco dining in all weather. Mosaic-topped tables complete the outdoor aesthetic, evoking the playful spirit of a grand Punjabi courtyard.


Descending to the Lower Ground Floor, you’ll discover a vibrant club ambience defined by animal-print drapery, mirrored ceilings, and a dedicated DJ booth. In-house DJs and special guests keep the music going until the early hours, seamlessly transforming post-dinner lounging into a spirited dance floor.


For those craving exclusivity, Ambassadors Clubhouse offers an array of private rooms, each with a distinctive flourish:

1. The Jungli Room (Up to 6 guests; From £400 dinner minimum)

A gold table sits beneath a chandelier and animal-print fabric drapes the ceiling, mirroring the lively Lower Ground Floor vibe. Hazy mirrored walls lend extra decadence to this snug, immersive hideaway.

2. The Tamasha Room (Up to 10 guests; From £600 dinner minimum)

Flanked by mirrored ceilings and outlined in gold, this room is located directly behind the DJ booth—perfect for a party that embraces the after-hours soundtrack.

3. The Raja Rani Room (Up to 12 guests; From £600 dinner minimum)

Tucked just off the Ground Floor, this space showcases bespoke Indian tiles, floral paisleys, and ornate lighting, allowing guests to dine in refined splendor while keeping a comfortable distance from the main bustle.


Each private space offers either Feast Menus or à la carte (availability varies by lunch or dinner), ensuring that all occasions—from intimate celebrations to full-scale feasts—are catered for in sumptuous style.


Reflecting the “party mansions” of undivided Punjab (India and Pakistan), the menu at Ambassadors Clubhouse spotlights classic roadside dishes alongside more sophisticated, palace-inspired fare:


A signature giant pani puri opens with a satisfying crack to reveal tangy tamarind chutney, chickpeas, beetroot, and crunchy fried bread, all unified by a light, creamy dressing. Meanwhile, the pakode delight with a molten-cheese filling and a piquant tamatar (tomato) chutney. Vegetarians should not miss the bright, savory mooli and dahi kebabs.


The wild Madagascan prawns, marinated in caraway, emerge from the tandoor impeccably succulent. Original BBQ Butter Chicken Chops—enormous cuts left on the bone—are basted in a ghee-powered sauce that’s guaranteed to tempt indiscriminate dipping of sides, garnishes, and fingers alike.


From traditional lentil-based preparations to showstoppers like the Ranjit Shahi Lobster Curry, this menu intertwines roadside soulfulness with elevated, Michelin-grade technique. For a lively tableside moment, try the Punjabi atta chicken: crusted in dough and brimming with aromatic juices that burst forth when carved.


In true celebratory fashion, Ambassadors Clubhouse boasts a drinks list as effervescent as its décor. The Tamatar Martini—crafted to perfection with a pale carmine tint—packs all the punch and flavor of a Bloody Mary in a sleek, elegant glass. For those looking to share, large-format serves feature whimsical shot selections, while “Punjabi Margaritas” blend North Indian fruits and spices with globally popular spirits, resulting in playful yet refined concoctions.


Despite its boisterous, party-centric character, service here remains polished and attentive. Staff navigate the room seamlessly, ready to offer expert guidance on menu choices or refill glasses with perfect timing. The lively yet refined atmosphere seems tailor-made for those seeking a sophisticated evening of food, drink, and good company.


Should you opt to linger beyond dinner, the transition to Ambassy—the late-night experience—awaits in the Lower Ground Floor. A live DJ set, mirrored ceilings, and spirited dance beats coalesce into a memorable celebration of modern Mayfair nightlife.


Ambassadors Clubhouse merges sumptuous Punjabi flavors, lavish décor, and spirited after-hours entertainment into one unforgettable destination. From the jasmine-laced Verandah to the glimmering club space downstairs, each corner is meticulously curated to delight and indulge. The thoughtfully executed food, attentive service, and late-night energy come together in a showcase of hospitality that feels equal parts nostalgic and modern.


In short, bring your appetite, your dancing shoes, and your most glamorous self. Ambassadors Clubhouse is poised to become a must-visit for the fashionable, the food-obsessed, and anyone longing for a taste of India’s famed party-mansion revelry—right in the heart of Mayfair.
