Disappointing. Staff met me with “oh your wrist is so big I don’t think I even have such a big wristband”. That’s not really what a person struggling with weight issues wants to hear, especially when coming to the place like this. It sets the tone for the rest of the evening.

Spent there over 3 hours and toilets were not cleaned even once during the period. There was piss and rubish everywhere. Also, bathrooms ceiling is covered in mould. Disgusting.

I usually have fun here but I think they can definately do with more staff. The toilets are often disgusting as it serves as both a toilet but also to hopefully wash in the basin after having sex with someone. The fact that this is a gay sex club but there is no douching facility is also beyond me!

Thursday was intense. Queued outside for a bit, but well worth the wait. Hot dads and lads all over.. not just hanging, but banging! Def music was on point and staff both hot and friendly. Could’ve gone on all night, shame it shuts at 1 😉

Maybe could do with some more changing space, but that’s my only concern.

Can’t wait to come back in a couple weeks 😈

Barman in cap asked me to review if I had fun, so here it is 😘

Super fun place in London, off the beaten track, and very well attended by non-scene men who mostly are open to having fun in a secure nondescript place. The underwear and naked nights are packed and intense. Excellent clothes check system, one of the best, with fast and efficient staff. Super nice bar staff. A variety of spaces from open to private. Come fit, clean, groomed with a good attitude then sure to have a great time.
