The word cabaret comes from the Old Dutch, meaning small room, and if you have never seen a cabaret in such an intimate setting, you have not really experienced it properly. CellarDoor was one of London’s original cabaret and burlesque speakeasies, having a capacity of just 60. The bar was originally an underground toilet outside the Lyceum. It was reputedly the haunt of Orton, Gielgud, Crisp and Wilde in its previous incarnation as the most infamous cottage in Theatreland. They serve Oscar Wilde’s favourite tipple, Perrier-Jouet champagne.
