I’ve been coming here for a while now. I have to say it’s adorable! It’s an obviously very gay club with many gay characters but the clientele are mixed with straight people partying with the gays. There is clearly mutual respect and banter in this welcoming environment. The door staff treat some of us regularly like family and it is great fun. The bar staff clear enjoying their role and you can often see them partying here on their time off

This has to be the best venue by far in canal street. I’ve never seen any sign of problems and the door staff are all lovely. I’ve brought my friends here many times who visit and they all say the same . Can get a bit crowded but the staff seem to control it very well . DJ’s all spot on and the staff very attentive . Want the best night then look no further!

We had a booth booked. This miserable man wouldn’t let us in. I now know why the bar was dead. You missed out on £400. Terrible service.

Edited with added info from friend..

Hi ian, it was just done verbally, by people the couple we met that we werent allowed go into, but that doorman wasnt bein professional and was egging for a conflict on purpose with his attitude, he wouldnt even explain.

Incredible Service – Peter, Lewis, and Luke Are the Dream Team!

Every time I come in, Peter, Lewis, and Luke make me feel completely welcome—like I’m part of the family. Their service is consistently outstanding, and they always go the extra mile with a smile. It’s rare to find such genuine hospitality, but these three have absolutely nailed it.

They’re the reason I keep coming back. Whether it’s their warm greetings, attention to detail, or just the great energy they bring, they’ve created an experience I genuinely look forward to every time.

If you’re looking for top-tier service and a team that truly cares, Peter, Lewis, and Luke are unbeatable.

Highly recommend!

Wow what an amazing place! Greeted by door staff who are attentive and humorous. Fantastic vibe downstairs and a more chilled area upstairs. It felt like pride! Bar staff looked a bit stressed but it was very busy. This venue is a credit to the street!
