    Urgh, this place was sweaty and horrible. I regret coming here after being harassed by some guy on leicester square trying to fill the place up. I came on a student night, and it was full of people who were definitely not students. Felt like a piece of meat, there was no room to move on the dancefloor and didn't feel comfortable anywhere at all. The music was passable R&B and cheese, but it was too stifling to enjoy. I didn't really take in much of the surroundings, but from what I remember they were nothing special. Didn't have a drink, as i wanted to leave asap.

    Went to this place on my 18th birthday and i really loved it. I loved the fact that it was full of the older generation. I had an awesome night but the only problem was the music was quite cheesy with jennifer lopez and britney spears. If you like cheesy pop then you will love the music. Had some good RnB and hip-hop though. Prices were cheap as hell and considering it is located in the west end that's really good. It had a good combination of people with different ethnicities which I liked too. Overall I loved it.

    I first went here years ago when they just opened, and it was smokey, dingy, molten wax everywhere and a cocktail list as long as my arm.

    Went in last night and it's a sh*thole.

    The lovely cast iron furniture is gone, replaced by cheap wooden pub stools. Looks liek someone went to a pub closing down sale and snags the rubbish.

    The wax is all gone, replaced by three (why??) plasma screens of varying size, all playing different channels, but with the sound on. To top off that cacophony, you then have cheesy r&b playing over the PA.

    Drinks are limited to standard 4 p*ss beers on tap and more p*ss beers in bottles.

    Clientele consists of sweaty labourers on the pull and underage kids. Terrible.

    As for the club, didn;t go but in the past it's just a meat market dive. I doubt that's changed for the better.
