Stratford Padel Club

Fantastic experience: In my opinion, the best Padel club in London for competitive players! Pros: - They’ve got their own rating system allocated in a rating session, which guarantees you’ll always play people at a similar-ish level (no Playtomic catfishing here!). - Fully indoor courts with an on-site gym. - Affordable memberships with great value for money. - Fantastic food — genuinely tasty and very reasonably priced. - High-quality coaching at fair prices, plus regular socials and mix-ins. - Changing rooms with showers, hair dryers, and everything you need. - Loads of merchandise available. - And most importantly, super friendly and helpful staff! - Given a 1 month membership for free once rated! Cons: - Their app can be quite buggy at times, but once you get used to it, it’s easy to forget those early frustrations. - The rating sessions seemed rushed, improvised and not taken very seriously overall — it would’ve been great if the coach had clearly explained how my score was allocated by linking to their official rating matrix definitions. I’m happy with my rating and the games have been great, but it’d make the process feel much more transparent and ensure consistency in allocations. It's my impression that this is a widespread (but likely the only) concern about the club. Overall, no club is perfect — but Stratford consistently delivers the best standard of play in London that I've experienced. Their structured rating system really sets them apart and keeps games fair, fun, and competitive. I wish all clubs took their approach.

Fantastic experience: Great club and vibe

Positive experience: Loads of courts // proper buzz and community of players // good changing facilities

Fantastic experience: Bear padel club in London! An amazing community here

Fantastic experience: Best padel club in London..great atmosphere... very goodnlevel of players

Fantastic experience: A fantastic spot if you want to try or regularly play padel in London. The courts are well-maintained, the facilities are modern, and the whole place has a really welcoming vibe. Whether you’re a complete beginner or an experienced player, it’s easy to book a session and join in. The staff are friendly and always ready to explain the basics or help set up games. They also organize social matches and events, which makes it a great place not just for sport, but also for meeting people. The location near Stratford is very convenient, with good transport links and plenty of food/coffee spots nearby to hang out after a game. Highly recommend it if you’re looking for a fun and active way to spend your time in London. It’s addictive once you start playing!

Negative experience: Booking system is broken. Cannot book courts online or via the app.

Fantastic experience: Lovely!

Fantastic experience: Good courts, excellent coaching.

Fantastic experience: Great place to learn with excellent coaches, high-quality courts, and amazing food. The perfect spot to enjoy sports and socialize

Negative experience: I’m a padel player visiting from abroad (rated 5.0/7) and was genuinely looking forward to playing at this club during my short stay in London. I contacted them in advance, explained that I’m only in the UK for one week, and asked if I could join matches. I expected a warm and welcoming experience—but unfortunately, it was quite disappointing. They informed me that I needed to join a “startup” session first to receive a rating on the Stratford app before being allowed to join open matches. I completely understand the need for such a system—but the earliest available startup session was scheduled 8 days after I contacted them, which was two days after my departure. Despite explaining my situation clearly, there was no flexibility or effort to accommodate me as a short-term visitor. I then visited the club in person, hoping to speak to someone directly. The staff member at the front desk (not sure of his exact role) seemed uninterested and dismissive, treating me as though I was inconveniencing him. When I asked if there were any open matches that evening or the next day—both of which were visible on the Stratford app—he simply said “no” without explanation or assistance. It felt disrespectful and misleading. The club itself also didn’t meet expectations. The roof is inclined, starting from around 5 meters—which severely limits play for intermediate and advanced players who rely on lobs and overhead shots. The indoor court was also quite hot, with no functioning air conditioning or proper ventilation. As someone who owns 10 padel courts in my home country and is actively involved in promoting the sport, I was hoping for a better experience. Unfortunately, both the customer service and the playing environment fell far short of what visiting players deserve.

Fantastic experience: Four Ladies, One Fabulous Day in Stratford! We started our adventure with a train ride from Diss to Stratford, full of excitement and good spirits. After a lovely walk to the Stratford Padel Club, we kicked things off with two hours of play — great fun and lots of laughter! Lunch at the club was delicious and gave us the perfect energy boost before our lesson with Richard. The session was both informative and fun — packed with useful tips, just the right level of challenge, and plenty of humour and banter to keep us smiling throughout. A brilliant day all round — good company, great padel, and lots of laughs!

Fantastic experience: Best place to have fun and play Padel!!!

Fantastic experience: I joined Stratford Padel Club in August last year, so it's now been almost a year—and what a great year it's been! From the very start, the club has offered an amazing learning environment. I was lucky enough to take part in the Orange Academy, which was incredibly helpful for understanding positioning and strategy on court. I've also done several Train & Play sessions with a range of different coaches—each one bringing their own perspective and insights, all of which have really helped me grow as a player. On top of that, I’ve had private lessons with the club’s owner, Javi, whose coaching has been invaluable. Every single staff member I've met has treated me with respect and kindness, and has always encouraged me—regardless of my level of play. That welcoming attitude makes such a difference. What I love most, though, is the social side of the club. There's a real sense of community here. Whether you're joining a mix-in, training, or just coming for a casual hit, there’s always a friendly face and a great vibe. It’s a fantastic way to improve your padel, stay active, and connect with people. And with opportunities to play seven days a week, it’s perfect for anyone who wants to get seriously hooked! Highly recommend Stratford Padel Club to players of all levels.

Fantastic experience: Stratford Padel Club strikes the perfect balance: high-quality coaching, excellent courts, a welcoming vibe and a special focus on junior development. It’s a place where kids can grow in their game, gain confidence, and make friends. The staff is friendly, patient, and passionate and kids love coming to their sessions, not just for the sport but also for the full of encouragement. The couching team is incredibile and I know my kids are in an expert hands. Thanks to Javier, Dilan, Pao, Ella, David and Denise you are doing an amazing job.

Fantastic experience: Excellent location, love it

Fantastic experience: A place not only to learn, but to develop your padel. Matchmaking is based on rating levels given by coaches. This leads to more consistent games than other platforms that are self assessed or based on ELO.

Fantastic experience: The energy is great and the staff are amazing :)

Fantastic experience: Loved it

Fantastic experience: Great coaching I got into paddle from Stratford the staff is great.

Negative experience: All bookings have to be made by their app, and it is one of the worst bookings apps I have ever used in my life. Poorly translated from Spanish into English. Payments don't work properly. The user interface is incredibly cumbersome to navigate through. Genuinely just awful. The facilities themselves are ok once you manage how to get past the app, and the staff are friendly and helpful. But oh my God the booking app is just nightmare fuel.

Fantastic experience: Been playing at Stratford Padel club for years. Facilities improved a lot over that time. Rating system to organise matches works well. Feels more of a community compared to other clubs. Great customer service especially by Sebas

Negative experience: A very unprofessional organisation. They change your court without explanation or previous notification and when you complain they deny it. If you are a real business you need to behave like one.

Fantastic experience: Amazing atmosphere. The staff in particular are exquisite.

Fantastic experience: Fun even as a beginner. Facilities are great. Went during the storm and I couldn't hear anything outside. Clean and nice looking courts. Interesting to see as a first timer!

Negative experience: Cheapest option in the neighbourhood but very unprofessionals.

Fantastic experience: Amazing place, super nice people and all the employees are super friendly and attentive, especially Sebas, Parse number 1

Fantastic experience: Absolutely Love Stratford Paddel club, and these are the reasons why… firstly it’s so easy to join using the app to get your starting score and book matches, it’s so well organised and you get notifications through the app for additional games if someone cancels, the coaches are really friendly and professional and the facilities are fantastic and clean! My only suggestion as an area for improvement would be they could do with some air conditioning or fans as it does get hot inside on sunny days and can become quite humid and airless. You can take a shower here after your match and grab a bite to eat and a beer or something else, there is a wide selection available, with indoor and outdoor seating. There are plenty of courts, I think they have recently extended to 9 as it’s so popular. Anyone can play from beginner to advanced. There is also a small gym and table tennis available. Once you start playing here you will quickly become addicted so watch out, it really is so much fun!

Fantastic experience: I have not been playing for particularly long (2 months) but love everything going on at SPC - the socials are great for the beginners, plus the Train & Plays/private lessons have been great for myself and always engaging. The app is easy to use, and pricing for London I think is more than reasonable. Can't imagine playing anywhere else!

Fantastic experience: Best set up around, value for money and great coaching.

Fantastic experience: Honestly, one of the best sport club I’ve ever been. Lovely atmosphere, very professional coaches, smiling lovely people everywhere. I join this community 1 month ago and most probably will stay for long. Thanks to administration and whole team of Stratford padel club. You are the best

Fantastic experience: I have really enjoyed joining the community at Stratford Padel Club. It stands out to me for how welcoming it is, reasonably priced and has great train & play sessions. If you’re nearby it’s truly awesome. If not, it’s a short walk/cycle from Stratford station. You can also be quite organised by booking ahead here and because the community is huge, it’s quite easy to find replacements should you need to. The prices are very reasonable and every court is covered, with most also having free filming available.

Fantastic experience: Great padel club, great staff, and great grassroots atmosphere. Definitely my favourite place to play in London.

Fantastic experience: Best club in the uk. Vamos!

Fantastic experience: Best padel club in london

Fantastic experience: Best padel club in London!!

Fantastic experience: No words enough to describe this amazing club! Its the reference of Padel in London and it would even say Uk for the level of players, environment or management. Totally recommended!!!

Fantastic experience: Best place ever made even better by Taylor who was behind the bar and was funny, friendly and very good padel player! I hope to come back soon, til next time Taylor!

Fantastic experience: Best club in London, 8 indoor courts, super nice staff and best vibe!!

Fantastic experience: Good vibe, great staff, lots of activities.

Fantastic experience: Best of the best of the best!

Fantastic experience: Best padel court in London!! Probably in all uk

Fantastic experience: It's not the flashiest and modern Padel facility but what it lacks in glam, it certainly makes up for it in community vibes and a place that is warm and friendly. They are also the most affordable Padel place in London and their staff are friendly (most at least) and their WhatsApp groups are fun and customer service always responsive and attentive.

Fantastic experience: Best place to play padel in London!

Fantastic experience: SPC is a truly wonderful padel club. The coaches are brilliant, the depth and breadth of members means you will always have fun and challenging matches whatever level you play at. The sense of community is also very strong. Love this place!!

Fantastic experience: Great Padel club and atmosphere! Good value compared to other places and plenty of courts since the expansion. Keep it up SPC!

Fantastic experience: Love learning and playing Padel at this club. The facilities are great and the staff and coaches super friendly and helpful. A fun atmosphere and lots of social activities happening all the time. My four year old does the kids classes and she loves it too. I only wish they had more courts so I could play more Padel!

Fantastic experience: A hidden gem of Padel , don’t spread the word out too much ! A great place to play all seasons with friendly staff and coaches. Great facilities with plenty of rackets on hand to try and a good selection of food and drinks. When the kitchen is open the paella is amazing. The socials and tournaments are also a great way to meet new players and spend a weekend. The rating system is mostly fair as it requires a coach to rate as opposed to self certifying which in general maintains a consistent level of play in each group. Look out for the resident lab that loves to play fetch

Fantastic experience: I joined in April 2024 and had so far a great time playing there. Friendly team, really good facilities and a lovely community to connect with players/friends beyond the match.

Fantastic experience: Having played at most of London’s padel venues, I keep coming back to Stratford Padel Club because of the extremely supportive atmosphere amongst members and staff, 9 courts and super high quality coaching. Hard to beat.

Fantastic experience: Best padel club with a fantastic team and delicious food.

Fantastic experience: Best padel club in London! The service they provide is high quality, with excellent facilities and coaches. There is also a very friendly community and the food is amazing, I love playing a match and then enjoying a paella afterward

Fantastic experience: Great set up and very friendly staff. A sociable place that is great for meeting people and enjoying a drink. The coaches have helped me improve my game too!

Fantastic experience: What really makes SPC Stratford stand out is the vibe. You don’t just come here to play; you come to enjoy. Whether it’s the friendly competition, a drink in the beer garden, or the various social events, the club is all about making you feel part of something bigger. The owner, coaches and staff are phenomenal, always ensuring you’re in for a great time. They’ve nailed the balance between high-energy sport and laid-back community!

Fantastic experience: Super dooper club for anyone looking to get into Padel! Amazing facilities with excellent staff. Everyone is really friendly and they also provide onsite parking. Their app is really intuitive which works on a rating scale that is provided before you join the club and this allows you to book games within your own level, making games more competitive and fun.

Fantastic experience: I love this place! Never played Padel before but got recommended by a friend and tried this place out. Did one of their beginner sessions with a coach and 3 other people then they give you a rating which allows you to play games with people of the same/similar rating to you. The atmosphere is very friendly and it’s a great way to meet people. They have quite a strict system if you miss a match with less than 24 hours notice (you get a fine) but they try to help you find a replacement and the system helps make sure you get games and people don’t sign up unless they definitely plan to play! So all in all it helps everything run smoothly!

Fantastic experience: Great club and community vibe. Facilities have improved a lot in the last year and now provide a family feel with quality food and beers for afters. The quality of the coaching is first class. Pricing wise is at a very decent price point vs other London Padel clubs.

Fantastic experience: The best padel club in the UK. Friendly community, good food and high level padel. Like a second home in London

Fantastic experience: Amazing club/community to play and learn Padel! Great courts, coaches and people. Very fair prices as well.

Fantastic experience: Great space and plenty of courts. You can also video record your game for free

Fantastic experience: Fantastic atmosphere and an incredible community! The coaches are excellent, always providing top-notch guidance and support. The entire team is super friendly and helpful, making every visit a great experience. SPC team,thank you! :) Highly recommend this club to anyone looking to enjoy padel in a welcoming and positive environment!

Fantastic experience: It’s a great Padel club, what possibly separates it from others is the community and authentic feel about it (given the sport is heavily dominated by Spain and Argentina it is nice to have a Latin feel about the place, ie Spanish / Latin food menu and refreshments). Despite the enormous number of members it’s not hard to book into a match if you book in advance or are happy to play early or later in the day, plus cancellations come up a lot, and my experience with the coaches has always been positive too.

Fantastic experience: Best padel club in London - excellent standard of coaches, great community, really easy to book matches on the app and you’re guaranteed a good level game because of the rating system. Post padel pints also a perk

Fantastic experience: Amazing location, great staff and very friendly atmosphere. Best Padel club in London by far.

Fantastic experience: Excellent facilities and top notch coaches

Fantastic experience: SPC has 9 padel courts (8 indoorsand 1 outdoor), with 7 courts available for recording of the match. There are lockers, changing and shower rooms available for female, male and a disabled toilet. ️‍♀️ A gym section available for warm-up or flex your muscles, I think the up keeping and maintenance of the equipments could be better. A ping pong table available to warm up your reflexes. An indoor bar with beer tap and outdoor restaurant for food. Coaches at SPC are experienced and passionate about the sport. The coaching is taken seriously and carefully planned to make sure players learn the right skills to play the game. The player rating system rely on coach to rate the players to assign a rating to join the club. I think is a better player rating system than other padel clubs and I would recommend SPC to consider having player rating sessions with the coach similar to the ‘Launch Pad’ to speed up the review process. ✅ Facilities: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ✅Coaching and training: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ ✅Player rating system: ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Overall, I enjoy learning and playing padel in SPC very much. I really appreciate the management team is constantly seeking feedback to improve the club, training and player rating system for members.

Fantastic experience: Great padel club. The courts are in good condition. Booking system is simple enough. Nice spot outside to sit under umbrellas and maybe have a coffee after the session. Icing on top was the camera system they have in place. Friends and family can watch you play live online and you can also download your whole session afterwards. Brilliant piece of thinking! Will be going back again this week.

Fantastic experience: The best Padel club in the world! The staff, coaches and owners are all amazing. I probably spend too much time there because I love playing padel at SPC so much. You are guaranteed to find regular matches with friendly people at whatever level you play at. I also think they offer the best value padel in London. It is great that new courts have been added in the past year as well as the facilities being further improved. SPC is also dog friendly which is great. They offer everything: private coaching, socials, tournaments, train and play sessions. Everything is well organised and run by friendly staff who actually care. I highly recommend playing at Stratford Padel Club!

Fantastic experience: Amazing club with a fantastic atmosphere! Stratford Padel Club is incredibly inclusive, welcoming players of all levels and backgrounds. The coaches are top-notch, making learning the game a breeze. Plus, the facilities are fantastic and the social scene is vibrant. Whether you're a seasoned pro or just starting out, this is the place to be! #StratfordPadelClub #PadelForAll

Fantastic experience: Friendly staff, friendly players. Quality courts and quality, international coaches. A mix of playing standards so there’s something for everyone, from complete beginners to advanced players. Very competitive pricing, I recently moved from another club because it was more affordable at SPC, without compromising on service. The club introduced some quality food offerings so you can order some fresh food from the quality chef on site after playing. Would definitely recommend the club as the best in London and encourage everyone to try it!

Fantastic experience: I kept walking past this place and had no idea what it or padel was. So I looked online one day and thought - ok let’s give it a go. Now it’s become like my second home Love the sport, love the club. The matches are fun and the training is super helpful. I got moved up a group recently so the rating system works The staff and coaches are great, the facilities are good, and I’m looking forward to trying the food sometime soon. Keep up the good work! Vamos!

Fantastic experience: Stratford Padel club is my home away from home. Their focus on community with excellent staff, regular socials, tournaments and group training has created an environment where it's not just a great facility for playing padel but a place to socialise and connect with like-minded people afterwards. Sports do not come naturally to me but the addictive nature of the game and the engagement and care taken by the coaches of this club have meant that I have genuinely enjoyed progressing over time. This combined with playing against a huge variety of players around your level means your matches are kept interesting.

Fantastic experience: SPC has everything I would want in a club. The coaches, staff and members create a fun, welcoming community. Good vibes, plenty to do, opportunities to improve, highly recommend.

Fantastic experience: The best place to play Padel in London. Great staff and great prices

Fantastic experience: The Stratford Padel Club is an absolute gem for padel enthusiasts! With nine impeccably maintained courts, you’ll always find a great spot to play, whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned player. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, making the whole experience enjoyable from start to finish. The club’s facilities are top-notch, with both indoor social areas and a lovely outside beer garden and kitchen where you can relax after a game. The parking and bike storage are convenient additions that make getting there hassle-free. Special shoutout to the coaches who are not only skilled but also passionate about helping players improve their game. Whether you're there for a casual match or serious training, Stratford Padel Club delivers on all fronts. Highly recommended!

Fantastic experience: Fantastic facilities, great staff and a brilliant app to make booking easy. Both the group and private coaching sessions are incredibly valuable. Bonus points for the bar for post-match beers.

Fantastic experience: The best club in London to learn and improve your padel. Indoor courts allow year round play with great coaches and a real “club vibe”.

Fantastic experience: Stratford is the best padel club in London!

Fantastic experience: Amazing place to play Padel, for beginners and advanced players, Coaches are very knowledgeable, this Club have a very unique leveling system that is overseen by the coaches which ensures that in all your matches you are playing people simialr to your own level. Very easy to book sessions and matches via the app staff a very friendly and the club have created an amazing community that brings everyone together.

Fantastic experience: Such a bunch of lovely people. They have created a nice setting to make new friends, exercise and have fun! I truly enjoy my time when playing padel at the SPC!

Fantastic experience: I have now played padel in many clubs in UK. This one is by far the best for the way it is organised, assessing and matching player ratings and the updated courts and facilities

Fantastic experience: This is the place! You can have fun practicing a sport, socializing with people eating and drinking..... this a really good padel club!

Fantastic experience: I have only recently resumed Padel due to injury after 2 years out of the game and started taking private lessons here. I love the vibe, staff, coaches and food! Sebas in particular has been amazing making me feel at home, introducing me to the club and the facility. I cannot wait to start playing matches soon!

Fantastic experience: Para mí un gran club calidad precio. Buen ambiente, las pistas están bien y los vestuarios genial.

Fantastic experience: I joined the club 3 months ago and honestly have loved every second. First of all the venue is huge with 9 padel courts, the facilities have all you need and are well maintained and clean. The booking system is smooth - all done through an app. The player ranking system is honest and way better than playtomics system so you’ll always get competitive matches. Finally the coaches are knowledgable and super friendly. I’ve had a few private and group training sessions and always feel like i have learnt so much. Can’t recommend this place enough. 5 star!

Fantastic experience: I have only been attending SPC for a month, but I am already in love with it's facilities, friendliness to new platers and the ease in which you can attend events and book games/coaching sessions. Would thoroughly recommend to anyone, experienced or novice, who fancies getting into padel.

Fantastic experience: Like my second home. Place where I can get nice matches, good friends and cold beer. Great social club, atmosphere and the padel level is amazing

Fantastic experience: Amazing club with great coaches and a community like no other centres in London. Can’t recommend enough.

Fantastic experience: Amazing club, wonderfully social atmosphere, great coaches and facilities. Heartily recommended.

Fantastic experience: Great staff and great community! The app makes it very easy to arrange games.

Fantastic experience: Great Paddle club!

Fantastic experience: First time playing Padel and this was good. 8 courts. Coaches. A bar and v authentic paella / tapas on offer afterwards. The only problem was the heat. It's 27 degrees in London today but was hotter than that inside with no fans / airflow. Very very sweaty!

Fantastic experience: Great Club & great people

Negative experience: Honestly I wish I was giving this club a much better rating, their refusal to use a good rating system is the last straw. Especially avoid as a beginner or intermediate, they don't care. When I have to teach your players the basics of the game and you refuse to improve my rating simply because I don't take lessons here just proves all you want is to drain more money out of your players. How is it that I continuously show you sets of me beating players 6-0 and you refuse to admit my level has improved? If you stopped being stubborn and just used playtomic I'd actually enjoy this club much more.

Fantastic experience: Súper instalaciones de pádel! Que os vaya muy bien q abráis más sitios!

Fantastic experience: Best Padel club in London in my opinion. 9 indoor courts. Great range of activities including classes, group learn and play sessions, tournaments and americanas. Suitable for all abilities and ages. Welcoming friendly community. Great fresh Latin food options at the weekends. App works well for booking courts and activities.

Fantastic experience: Friendly team, great for first timers - easy to book and get on the court. Friendly environment and there's even a coffee station!

Positive experience: Love the set up and the game. Quite a lot of admin to be a part of it (you can see why the sport not gonna put football off the global game any time soon). The sport itself a lot of fun, and the staff in the facilities nice.

Fantastic experience: Well organised Padel Club. The staff is super friendly and they help you with any kind of problem! The place is super clean and the new showers are amazing. I have been there a couple of times to get started with padel and I enjoyed it a lot l so I'll definitely be back for more! The matchmaking is very fair, they use a quite fair player rating system.

Fantastic experience: The best padel club in London with the nicest staff
