If anyone has the displeasure of meeting that mulleted weirdo on the door I sympathise with you. Rude bloke obviously has a lot of issues to call people out on their appearances. Id advise him to take the “edge” off with a different coping mechanism, perhaps one which involves less anger directed at customers in the queue who have no power to retort. Ironic seeing as this place you’d think would be inclusive.

Great music, cool vibes, but staff was worse than unhelpful when I lost a glove. All I needed was a yes or no and couldn't even get that. Will likely return tho, albeit without gloves.

One of the bouncers maybe a Man United supporter. My friend occasionally wears football shirt and nothing happened when he was wearing a FC Barcelona shirt to get in. But one time a bouncer requested my friend to take his Man City shirt off or being disallowed to enter. My friend had no choice that he was forced to accept such unreasonable request. So that’s why he hates Man United not only the club but also the supporters’ behaviours.

The bar had a lovely atmosphere. Everyone was so kind and welcoming and I felt comfortable being myself around here. Bonus points for having unisex bathrooms. I can't speak about the club since it was too early (I think) for it to be busy, and was fairly empty at the time.

Been coming here for about 12 years. It was never fantastic and use to be fairly clicky with regulars and sat in the bar staff. The past couple of times I have come here, though I have noticed the security being really aggressive and rude to people, especially an older lady who is fairly short? I haven’t drunk alcohol in four years so going to club sober. You seem to notice a lot more. The management he now works. There seems to be drunk fairly often, only seen, chatting up young men. It’s all change staff since I used to go there and the staff now seem to be incredibly slow. The bar has expanded, but to be honest it’s still something of nothing. Small bar upstairs black walls downstairs with a dance floor. I don’t think he’s ever really improving and it has loyal regulars. That’s why every other venue that’s LGBTQ friendly has closed down within a couple of years. I think the edge definitely needs some new competition to come onto the scene. It’s mainly just full of straight woman these days and drinks have become expensive and cocktails have become more weak

For how drunk I was when I got there, the food (cheesy chips) was outstanding! It had full Saturday night energy and the music was great to dance to. What more could you want?
