Pricier than the metro 6th January 2009

I've only been here on a Friday night and it's very similar to the Metro bar around the corner on Oxford Street. The same kind of music, the same crowd. The Roxy is a bit nicer than the metro but you end up paying for it with the more expensive drinks. I think I paid £7 to get in at about 11 o' clock. It's a fun night if you can afford it.

Friendly door staff, very studenty. Cheap drink especially on a tuesday night @Panic. Cheap entry on a tuesday at only £1 if you sign up via the website.

Too pricey 26th August 2008

My boyfriend recommended the roxy after having had some good nights out there. He said it was cheap and good music. Well, the problem was that this has changed. I found it completely lacking in atmosphere. It was crowded and dark with a very small dance area spilling out in front of doors which staff were constantly using. The music wasn't great and the prices were astronomical. It is probably quite average for London but over 16 pounds for a pitcher of "cocktails" is too much for me! We got a Mai Tai but it was basically all pineapple juice. Not worth the effort. I needed alcohol to find this place acceptable but I couldn't afford it! The queue for the cloakroom was stupidly long and there wasn't enough seating. It was also quite cold. I really didn't enjoy my evening in the Roxy and I doubt I would ever venture there again. It wasn't at all fun which was massively disappointing

Good night out, a different theme each night with different music and drinks deals. There is a small dance floor which can get quite crowded.

Nice decor but it was such a small venue and too small for a student night. The drinks were quite expensive as well which was not good. There are better bars to go to in central.

Although quite small, the roxy definately has character. Happy hour is always good, as are Wednesday nights for students..
Coctails are great, although admittedly their strength can be dependant on how much you flirt with the barmen!!
The music is varied, and a nice mix, but personally prefer goin in larger group as very occasionally it can take a while to fill.(normally a queue later on)
Overall a good night out, or just as good for some early evening drinks before going on somewhere else!
