    22 of us went for a Sunday afternoon leaving party for a friend. An amazing time was had by all. Entertainment was brilliant and Scott, our server, was excellent and nothing was too much of an ask for him. We are definitely going back.

    We had a lovely night celebrating a 21st birthday. Got complimentary drinks for the birthday, and the staff were really accommodating the whole night, and super friendly! Zach looked after us when some older drunk men approached us, while another member of staff removed them. Really amazing place, will definitely be visiting again

    Popped in on a Wednesday evening. Wonderful dรฉcor, lots of photo opportunities. Pink and mirror theme. Happy hour on the cocktails, 241 of the same drink. Music on- mixture of pop. The service was great, I didn't get his name but he made everyone feel so welcome, recommended drinks to try and was just nice and friendly. Photo booth ยฃ4- nice addition I'd like to return on the weekend as I imagine the atmosphere is alot more lively.

    This was my first time attending Tonight Josephineโ€™s in Birmingham, and MY GOD! Did they impress!! The venue was amazing, but thatโ€™s not where the wonder ended! We were greeted by the wonderful Chelsea, a credit to the company! She warmly welcomed us and took us to our booth. I had booked a table to celebrate a birthday and Chelsea went above and beyond! Always making sure we were okay and even recommended a birthday drink for the birthday girl, which she loved! A perfect night, perfect service. Perfect.

    Went for brunch, was not the best. Awful tasting sparkling wine, cocktails was ok, everything served in cheap plastic Poundland glasses, was also a nightmare getting attention of waiters for a top up. For ยฃ40 you got served an awful take away type food served in a paper tray, the chicken was pink & undercooked so didn't even eat it. The entertainment did not start for nearly 45-50 minutes after entering and only lasted around 30-35 minutes of songs, singers were good. Dirty inside, seats are filthy. Honestly don't waste your money, cost does not match value at all. It's all really done on the cheap! **Be very wary of the good reviews, they offer an incentive for a good review. Before you even get started so before you can even give an honest review for the experience, within 5 minutes of sitting down someone comes round telling you to write a review, the show the review to the bar staff for a free drink. **

    Great ambience, amazing cocktails but book in advance to get a table. I tried booking few days back for a Saturday night, since I was late I was unable to get the drinks table still they allowed me to enter but never got a table. Choice of music was excellent

    I had initially given Tonight Josephine a glowing 5-star review after my first visit, but my second experience left me so disappointed that I doubt I'll be returning anytime soon. It's a real shame because my initial visit had been so promising. On my second visit, which was on a Tuesday evening, I was shocked to find the seating in a rather sorry state. All the seats were sticky, and some had tears. It was not particularly busy, with only three other people at the bar, so there really was no excuse for the poor condition of the seating. We attempted to place an order at the bar, but were promptly told to take a seat. Unfortunately, that's when our wait began, and no one came to take our order for an uncomfortably long time. What added to our disappointment were the two females working that night who appeared to have quite an attitude. This was a stark contrast to my previous visit, where the staff had been friendly and welcoming. Their behavior only exacerbated our dissatisfaction with the overall experience. I ordered two Cosmopolitans, and to my surprise, they were excessively bitter, even for someone who typically enjoys bitter drinks. I managed to finish them, but it wasn't an enjoyable experience. To make matters worse, as we prepared to leave (before 9 pm), my partner had ordered two beers but only managed to finish one. I decided to take the unfinished beer with me for the train journey, as is often permitted in similar establishments. To our surprise, one of the ladies, who had been largely absent throughout the evening, suddenly appeared and chased us up the stairs to inform us that we couldn't take the beer outside. It was an odd and untimely display of attention that felt like an unnecessary final straw in an already frustrating night. Overall, my second visit to Tonight Josephine left a lot to be desired. The condition of the seating, slow service, unfriendly staff, and poorly made drinks were all significant disappointments. To top it off, the sudden enforcement of rules as we were leaving only added to the frustration. I'll be exploring other options for my future outings, as there are better places around that offer a more enjoyable and consistent experience. Note that there is a forced 12% tip and when you pay they ask if you want to tip again!? (Photos from the first night when I left a 5 star review)

    Rightly the talk of town right now. ๐Ÿ’– Everything was aceee - interior is stunning, food was delish, music was top tier (lots of Britney). The drag queens were my fave. If you love sweet cocktails 100% recommend Razzle Dazzle, Rhubarb & Custard and Love Potion.

    It's a lovely looking place, with a lot of neon pink! We were downstairs as we didn't have a booking, I'm assuming upstairs is for groups etc. It's small and I can imagine if it was busier you'd be like sardines. I've only given 3 stars because the price of the drinks is ridiculous, with the cocktails all at least ยฃ10 and a large glass of wine was ยฃ9! I was told by an employee that they charge 'London prices' and I was like well we aren't in London mate. We stayed for one drink, I had the cheapest cocktail that was really nice. The music was good and there was a nice vibe. Just a warning if you want to go, make sure you save up a month's wages first ๐Ÿคฃ

    Immersive beats, pulsating energy, and a dazzling light show make this club a euphoric escape. From the chic decor to the vibrant crowd, every element contributes to an unforgettable night of celebration. Top-tier staff especially Ella who was always ensuring the dance floor stays alive. With attentive staff and a diverse drink menu, this venue sets the standard for an exhilarating nightlife experience.

    We came to the Abba experience this afternoon. Blooming heck what a gig! We had such fun. Donna Trump was amazing. The two Abba singers were brilliant. The crowd were such fun. What a great time. We danced. We sang. We drank. We were so well looked after. We could have stayed all night but we peaked too soon. Thank you so much for a fantastic Abba themed afternoon.

    Absolutely brilliant afternoon at Josephine , the drag queens are amazing. Lovely place to go and celebrate. A big shout out to Kenya for being so kind and lovely to my granddaughter on her 18th you are a beautiful person inside and out. The show was fantastic. The staff were all great. Just the food a little bit of a let down. Merry Christmas to you all, and all the best for 2024.

    Having read the reviews I was really not sure what to expect when we arrived but I have to say the ladies on the door began the experience. The staff were excellent. They were attentive, helpful and offered great service with a smile in difficult circumstances. The Queen was foul mouthed, crude and funny and we loved it! The food was ok but, having read the reviews, far outweighed my expectations. We will definitely book again. Thank you all for a great Sunday afternoon.

    A great and fun place, perfect for a girls night out, atmosphere is inviting and the songs are all singalong and dance too! Staff are friendly, we did the unlimited drinks for an hour and they were really good in coming back to take our order and than they arrive really quickly. Couldnโ€™t recommend it highly enough!!!

    Just had the most Sunday fun in ages! Our wonderful host was amazing with a brilliant voice, energy, sense of humour and looked fantastic! Along with the brilliant co-singers/dancers also. The staff were all so friendly and worked their socks off the whole time they were there. The place has a great vibe and offers the perfect way to let your hair down with friends and have a great time. Can't wait to go again!

    I spent my 22nd birthday at Tonight Josephine 30/12/2021 and it was the most amazing experience! This is my first time going to Tonight Josephine and exceeded my expectations. My party of 20 received the best customer service from Cam, who served us three free Prosecco bottles which I didnโ€™t even expect! Me and friends had a lovely toast and honestly enjoyed the night! Even my boy friends really enjoyed it too which I was scared about dragging them to there! Thank you so much for accomodating me and my party.

    Came for a hen night. 12 of us. The food wasn't up to much I'm afraid. It didn't taste good and my vegan friend for served food for a vegetarian so she couldn't eat it. Not enough staff to complain to. Otherwise it was a good night.

    Oh my god. We had the BEST night of our lives. We booked through designmynight to get onto the guest list at 7pm, for 10pm and when we arrived they had our names on the list which was amazing and so well organised! The bar itself is SO beautiful, it is such a fun, friendly and safe welcoming place! The cocktails were incredible, the bar staff were amazing! We had the time of our lives and it was even better because it was spontaneous. If you're ever in Birmingham then you HAVE to go here!!!

    I would appreciate a response to my emails!!! Having not being able to attend a hen do at Tonight Josephine on Saturday the 25th of September due to my daughter having Covid, I would like to know why you refuse to refund me??? The offer of a free ticket for a later date is no compensation!!! ๐Ÿ˜ก

    Fab bar, great fun for a girls' night out. Bar staff were helpful and friendly, and seemed to be enjoying themselves; drinks were delicious, and the bar felt very safe.

    An extremely fun place to be for a girls night out. Staff are friendly, atmosphere is inviting and drinks arrive really quickly. Couldnโ€™t recommend it highly enough!!!

  • 2/5 Wendy G. 2 years ago on Google
    Lovely atmosphere, great staff but I found the layout very badly designed. Couldn't see half of the show and felt more was going on at the opposite end of where we were sat. Big group split into two booths that were segregated so not much interaction between all of us. Food wasn't great, literally a light bite. Wouldn't visit again
