Cargo

Sweat drenched, my pores scream in the midst of that squelching cauldron. Poor tunes ooze from forth the walls. I certainly feel my £25 worth. Unless you seek the company of underaged and uncouth personnel, look no further.

Avoid at all Costssss!!!
Absolutely scam and very rude manager and staff members! Before entering it said free bar which was lit up and asked members of staff at the bar outside if we had to pay for entry to the bar which they said NO. When we arrived we were forced to pay £20 for entry which we didn’t want to use the night club as we believed it was only a free bar and then we pay for the drinks. Prices are an absolute joke anyways. We were leaving very quickly and only wanted 1 drink and being forced to pay £20 is not on and like I said very rude staff. I wanted our money back for the entry fee but got denied by the manager who wasn’t listening anyways. Any where else would be better anyways!!!

Rude staff, trod in a puddle of vomit by the bar which still wasn’t cleared up 10 minutes later, £15 for a large(?) rum and coke…. coke was completely flat and could barely taste any rum, a single bloke manhandled within seconds after the tiniest of scuffles but a large, rowdy group of lads knocking people’s drinks out of their hands (though no doubt spending money), left to run riot. I’m more than happy to pay London prices for a good night out but this was really low bar.

I regularly attend music events as part of my job, and this was hands down the worst venue I've been to. The security staff were incredibly rude and stand-offish towards me (I consider myself to be friendly and polite - so I'm not sure why they felt they needed to challenge me - perhaps because I'm queer presenting). When I went to the bar, lime and soda was (unbelievably) £3.50 (!!!), and when I saw the payment didn't go through, the bar staff asked me to check my own bank account to see if the transaction had been made. When I very honestly told them it hadn't, without making any eye contact they pushed the card machine towards me and walked away (it wasn't busy at the bar, so there was no need to be non-talkative with me - having previously worked in hospitality I would have been disciplined for how cold this member of staff was with me). After seeing the act I'd come to see I left pretty quickly as the atmosphere was totally dead and unwelcoming. Regardless of who is playing there next time, I won't be attending.

Booked a table for £100 for birthday, bouncer was really rude when we arrived. After showing reservation said ‘that’s not a table booking. You think your gonna get a table for £100 love’ (yes, are you unaware of your table prices?) then said to que up. The lady dealing with bookings apologised for the bouncer’s arrogant attitude and got us in quickly and let us choose a table we wanted with was nice. We then got on our table and we had pre ordered a drinks package for around £80 I think with wine beer, a variety of drinks. Was then told we only had option of 2 bottles of Prosecco or wine…? Night was average, music was pop/cheesy. Definitely not worth the money. I think it the bouncer wasn’t so rude on arrival it wouldn’t of dampened our mood for the rest of the night.

Cool vibes, good music/DJs. Dance floor was popping

Avoid this place if you value a good night out, I would have rated it 0 if possible. The prices of drinks start at £7 for a single shot and the staff are nothing but rude and miserable, security picks fights with anyone coming through the door and the whole place smells like B.O and damp. Defo not a good place to spend your money guys, treat yourselves better and go to literally anywhere else.

I had the most awful experience at Cargo. AVOID at all costs.
Me and a group of 6 others booked a table here 2 weeks before our booking in which we placed £140 deposit for the table.
We specifically booked outside for 7x people. However, when we arrived, we were divided into two groups and seated inside. After speaking to numerous members of staff, all of which only one seemed to have any idea what was going on, we were eventually moved outside together.
Once seated our drinks order was taken. 1 hour later, our drinks had not been served. (we chased the order up multiple times) We were then told by a member of staff that we couldn't sit together despite them approving of our booking 2 weeks prior. Nearly an hour and a half later, with no drinks and being told to split up, we decided to leave.
We were told no refund could be given, (£140) and that we should contact them via email. A member of the party has since emailed three times with NO RESPONSE.
The venue doesn't even deserve 1 star.
