Soulful Sunday Roast Dinner with Drag Queens - Authenticity and Audience Experience

Soulful Sunday Roast Dinner with Drag Queens

If you’re looking for a lively way to spend a Sunday afternoon in Merseyside, the Soulful Sunday Roast Dinner with Drag Queens offers a colorful blend of entertainment, good food, and a friendly atmosphere. Hosted at Blundells Supper Club and brought to you by FunnyBoyz Liverpool, this experience is free to attend (with optional paid upgrades), lasts about four hours, and offers something for all craving a relaxed yet fun-filled outing.

What makes this experience stand out is the chance to enjoy soul-themed music alongside interactive drag queen performances and a chance to indulge in either a hearty Sunday Roast or a one-course meal. We love the way the event combines music, humor, and good food into a casual, inclusive environment — perfect for groups of friends, solo travelers looking for a unique social experience, or even locals who want to spice up their usual Sunday routine.

One thing to keep in mind is that the event can feel a bit intimate, with only a small number of attendees, which might mean less of the high-energy spectacle you see at larger drag shows. If you’re expecting a big audience or highly polished karaoke, this might be a more relaxed, low-key afternoon. But if you’re after authentic interactions and a cozy vibe, this event is just right.

This tour suits those who enjoy music with a nostalgic soul vibe, light-hearted entertainment, and delicious, well-prepared food — especially if you’re curious about trying something different on a Sunday.

Exploring the Experience: What to Expect

Soulful Sunday Roast Dinner with Drag Queens - Exploring the Experience: What to Expect

The event kicks off at 2 pm, running until about 4 pm. We found that the venue—Blundells Supper Club—provides a cozy setting, perfect for a laid-back gathering. The host, a lively drag queen, sets the tone with soul-themed music, creating a warm, nostalgic mood. Think of slow, soulful tunes from the Soul Era—Motown, R&B, and classic grooves—that help everyone relax and unwind.

Drag Queen Interactive Experience and Games

The highlight is the interactive drag queen segment, where performers lip-sync, tell jokes, and engage with the audience. The games section adds a playful touch, with audience members buying tickets to spin wheels or win prizes. One review described the early part of the event as “fun,” emphasizing how the drag performers set a lively, humorous tone. However, with a small crowd, the energy can sometimes feel a bit subdued, especially during longer karaoke segments.

Food and Drink Offerings

The event offers three main food options:
Standing Entry — free but no reserved seat.
Seated Entry — £8.50, which includes a reserved seat and a glass of fizz.
Meal Packages — starting at £35 for a Sunday Roast or a one-course meal with drinks.

The Sunday Roast seems to surprise many, with reviews praising its quality and flavor—a welcome finding in an event primarily geared for entertainment. We think the value is good, especially if you opt for the meal package, which combines seating, food, and a drink.

Bottomless Booze & Food Package

For those wanting to indulge, the bottomless booze package at £55 is a fun option, offering 90 minutes of beer, cider, wine (including sparkling), and cocktails like Sex On The Beach and Mojitos. Soft drinks are also available. This package makes for a lively, party-like atmosphere where you can socialize freely.

Authenticity and Audience Experience

From reviews, it’s clear that the event’s charm lies in its informal, friendly vibe. One guest, Lisa, described her experience as “amazing” and appreciated the unexpected quality of the food. Conversely, another reviewer, Antoinette, expressed some disappointment with the karaoke segment, noting it dragged on and lacked leadership from the drag queens.

This small-scale setting means you’ll often get more personal interaction with performers and fellow attendees. It’s an environment that fosters casual fun rather than polished, large-scale entertainment—something many travelers find refreshing.

The Small Crowd Effect

With only around 11 audience members in one review, the event can feel intimate but also limits the energy. More participants could elevate the experience, making the karaoke and games even more lively. For solo travelers or couples, this atmosphere can be charming and non-intimidating; for larger groups, it might feel a bit cozy.
