Oceana

We were queing for entrance and coat for 1.5 hrs in the cold and rain. The drinks were extremely expensive. The place was dirty. Though the DJ was fine. Suddenly a big fat mental English woman attacked us. Pulled my and my daughter's hair. It took a few minutes and no any security turned up. We went to look for them but really no any real support came. Look the photos how it went. Damm this place. Awful! Not recommend😣

Shame that urban room has been moved into the small and cramped VIP space, was much better when it was downstairs in Bar Quarter. Still a great place to go on a night out but if you are looking for urban music, be prepared to take in a lot of sweat and to have not so much room to dance. If you're late, also be prepared for ridiculous half an hour queues to go upstairs into the VIP space.

I went with a group of 9 people for a friends birthday at the back of the queue and was told to wait for 30 minuets for 'being too drunk' I was honest about how much I drunk which was little, and wasn't drunk. I stood there and waited politely, to when i asked if I was able to go in yet I was spoken to rudely with out letting me talk to the female manger refused entry. I understand there are rules that need to be followed, but being spoken to like that and picked out for no reason was be belittling and not professional and ruined a night that I had travelled up for.

Staff are ridiculous especially the manager. After paying to get in , then asked to pay to put jacket in the cloakroom otherwise you get kicked out and loose your money. Most unreasonable staff ever. Avoid unless you want to pay ridiculous prices to actually get into the club. Manager is a horrible man.

Good variety of music - if you’re not into the complete club/rave vibe then there’s the disco room with older, karaoke-like songs and you can switch between rooms as much as you like. plus the drinks before the main club opens are cheap but it gets busy and takes ages to get served plus you’re pushed around and swamped by people. in the main club, drinks are expensive and many, not all, staff members seem miserable and dead inside (don’t blame them). needs a bloody good clean as the carpets are sticky and nasty. the worst part is the bouncers - they act like they’re guarding Buckingham Palace and like to get aggressive with people and in their faces and act too big for their boots. the security inside the club are also pretty useless. toilets are disgusting. overall, there are better places in Southampton to go out and have a good time than Oceana.

IF you can endure the mile long queues and airport like security, you're met by mostly miserable staff and bouncers on a power trip. The decor hasn't been touched for a decade and it shows. Even in the 'VIP' booths you're treated like a second class citizen, not a customer. And good luck finding any person of authority should something go wrong, it's an absolute shambles... There are many cheaper, nicer and better places to drink in Southampton where you don't get treated like cattle!

Oceanа is one of the Best nightclubs in Britain and in the world.
I am grateful to the people who gave their hearts and energy to create this beautiful place!
Come and have a rest here with your friends and acquaintances and you will get a good rest and mood :)

Student night on Wednesday is the way to go! Drinks are actually nice and not fake (mixers). Experience can vary depending on what day and what event is happening, but haven’t had an issue with staff.
