PASTRAMI Cabaret Music Club

Absolutely disgraceful experience. We turned up at this so called nightclub excited for a night out in Málaga only to be flat out refused entry and the only reason was because we are not Spanish. We were two English guys with a group of Spanish friends who had invited us, yet the staff still turned us away. When we asked why, we were told that English people always get drunk and fight. This is blatant discrimination and pure ignorance.

Tourists bring money and energy into this city yet this place treats visitors with total disrespect. The arrogance and unprofessionalism of the staff were unbelievable. If you are a foreigner do not waste your time or money here because you will be turned away at the door with zero respect.

There are plenty of much better clubs in Málaga where everyone is welcome and the atmosphere is genuinely fun. This place deserves to be avoided at all costs.

If you're a tourist or literally anyone who doesn't speak fluent Spanish, don’t bother wasting your time here. Despite having no visible entry requirements and being half empty, the bouncers turn people away with a smirk and zero explanation. Locals waltz in no problem — but non-Spanish speakers? Forget it.
We were dressed appropriately, polite, and clearly just looking to enjoy the night — but were met with rude attitudes and a flat-out refusal at the door. No reason, no conversation, just a condescending shake of the head and a dismissive gesture. Others around us had the same experience.
In 2025, this kind of selective discrimination is just embarrassing. There are plenty of welcoming, international-friendly clubs in Málaga — this is absolutely not one of them.
Tourists: spend your money where it’s appreciated. This place doesn’t deserve it.

I recently visited this club and had one of the worst experiences I’ve ever had at a venue. The night started off poorly when the security at the front door forced me to leave my brand-new hat with them, despite my objections. I’ve never had this happen at any other club or venue before.

After the party ended, I returned to retrieve my hat, only to be told they would not give it back to me. I was shocked and confused. I contacted the club multiple times afterward, hoping for a resolution, but my attempts were completely ignored. Not once did they show any empathy or make any effort to help me. They promised to ask around but clearly did nothing. It was as if they didn’t care at all.

I understand mistakes happen, but the utter lack of professionalism and respect for customers is inexcusable. The staff here clearly couldn’t care less about resolving issues or providing a positive experience.

The people were loud outside after midnight, and the club smelled awful inside. They have sisha what they could have mentioned, because some people do not like it. The musik is spanish but they only play songs what tourist do not know. As a person who loves clubbing, i do not recommend!

Too small, it’s just a hall. The inside smells like a public toilet. Music is mediocre at best. The bouncers were ok (I don’t know why they were talked about so poorly in other reviews). Nonetheless, a poor experience overall
