Went with a friend and the doorman kept asking us questions, as if it were an interrogation, of why we’d choose this place. I kept telling him that it’s a nice venue with nice music and came here to dance and he kept insisting that we were there for the ladies, until at one moment I reluctantly said why not, cause it was too much. He immediately told us to go elsewhere, apparently due to us being straight, while he then continued to allow random guys in with no further questioning. There was another random group of guys behind us that he thought they were our friends and said you’re not going in either but at that moment another member of staff told him they were all gay so he’d immediately let them in. Does this venue really represent acceptance and diversity? I was denied entrance for looking straight enough, and was not even looking to pick up girls just to have a good time with friends, some of them happening to be gay as well. Terrible representation of the LGBTQ campaign for acceptance. Rude and awful behavior by staff. Definitely not going there again since I’m not gonna pretend of having another sexual orientation just to get into a club. Imagine what would happen if a gay guy was refused entry into another venue due to his orientation! Simply unacceptable!
We turned up to the club at half eleven and as we turned up we saw an altercation between him and someone else. We thought nothing of it and assumed it was the guy trying to get in who was the problem. However when we got to the front, the guy out front asked me who I was with. I replied saying “oh, I didn’t realise I was meant to be with somebody” and he decided he didn’t like my attitude and turned us away in a rude way. Was completely unnecessary as I was genuinely confused to why he asked the question. We saw a few more people get turned away afterwards as well looking just as baffled as us, mainly being men as all the women were allowed in. I genuinely have never experienced such unnecessary rudeness from bouncers before and I just don’t understand why the guy was acting weird.
I'm not there having fights. Ridiculous. Yet they ignore the blatant drug dealing on their doorstep. Typical brexiteer behaviour from that old bald guy with the glasses.
What a shame, because it could be a decent atmosphere if it wasn't for the typical "ww2 style." bouncers. Seems nobody can have a laugh here.
They're OK to take your money and then tell you f you. I didn't see any discrimination at all tbh. If age is one then maybe. I'm 34.
