About Victory Club
This club was founded in 1920 and opened in 1921 by Lord Byng of Vimy, the Governor General of Canada. The club is popular with Crystal Palace fans but is no longer able to admit away fans on match days. Otherwise it generally welcomes visitors (including CAMRA members) and guests, and encourages new members. Guests pay a small fee (currently £3). Well-kept cask ales are always available and entertainment takes place through the week. Note that opening hours may vary when there is a live act on a Saturday, and when Crystal Palace is playing at home.

A nice member's club with great staff and a good entertainment stage for live music. Plenty of seating, a large dance floor, a separate pool lounge with access to the bar, the Victory Club is a great place for a fun evening. Popular for it's live music offerings, from full bands playing to duos singing live to backing tracks, the quality of the entertainment is always good, in my experience. Usual between music set bingo and a raffle keep everyone rapt and are both very popular. Service was welcoming and friendly, prices so low you will be left stunned, and a wonderful mixture of ages…

Popped in here prior to a Crystal Palace match. Had to show season ticket at security and pay £3 entrance as currently a non-member (which was well worth the money as saved this on the price of drinks from other local establishment's) Extremely lively on this occasion and looks to be a well run club, plenty of staff serving a variety of beers and lagers and a couple of Ians rolls after the match went down well. Speaking with a couple of committee members there looks like plenty to do within the club with live music and entertainment. Will aim to become a member in January when memberships…

A wonderful club, a place you can hire for a birthday.
