Great intimate venue to see bands right in the middle of Cardiff. With the right act and a good crowd and there's nowhere quite like it. It feels like I imagined the 100 club or the Marquee club back in the day. Friendly staff and bouncers too. Well worth a visit.

Great evening! Waited 2 years for this experience and it didn't disappoint. What a party! The best venue in Cardiff! Friendly professional staff on the door and at the bar.

Fantastic venue, one of the best live music venues in Cardiff.

Willy Mason was brilliant, the crowd were great and the sound inside was superb.

First time at the Clwb post-pandemic and absolutely fantastic to be back watching a superb band in a great venue. Mega helpful and nice staff too. One of the shining lights of Cardiff's cultural side.

Second time at this venue, second time seeing WSTR here. A great smallish venue near the centre of Cardiff, perfect for up and coming bands. Decent room for a mosh pit and overall a good size.

I can’t believe you turned me away because I don’t look 18+, I am 27!! You ruined everything for me my night, the chance to see one of my favourite bands…..never have I ever been ID’d for a gig in my life!

I would rate this venue minus, me and my fiancé are over 27 and have never been Id for a gig and I've been to over 200 for a band which most of the queue were clearly under 17 and I look old ruined out engagement weekend I advise anyone if you have a favourite band avoid this gutter of a venue

The club was actually five-stars, but because of the manager, if I could I would have given the place 0 stars.
Went to the club on Saturday, December 10th. We had such a good time and wanted to make a memory in the photo booth. We took the photos and paid 4 pounds. When the picture didn’t come out, we went to ask at the entrance how to get our picture. We were told that it had been a problem all night, but the manager would come. The manager came he went straight out to the machine, did some stuff and then ran off again. I asked the staff whether the manager would come back or not and they said that he’d might come back. So I decided to wait at the entrance. I stood there for half an hour before he came back.
When he came back he walked straight to the bar and I walked after him and tried to get his attention. He walked through a back door in the bar. When I came back to the entrance, the manager and a doorman was walking towards me, and the manager said that I had to leave because I had insulted him. I said that I just wanted to hear if I could get my photo or my money back. Instead, the manager ran off again.

I don’t think I will ever go back, unfortunately… I don't feel welcome anymore and will spend my money somewhere else.

I hope they will have a talk about how to treat their customers. I don’t think the manager was adult enough for his job or at least he wasn't very customer friendly.
