Brilliant night! Monday seems to be the busiest night from my few visits. Drinks are cheap if you get there early and then get a little more pricey later in the night. Powerhouse attracts a great crowd and the staff are friendly too. They tend to play more cheesy music which makes for a great time, plus it's easy to dance to.
Came from Manchester here on a culture club night at the arena where you’d expect it to be busy and full of gays considering it’s supposed to be a gay bar. I’d have felt safer in a Wetherspoons. Completely straight crowd.
The bouncers were unfriendly at best. After having entered and drunk my second drink of the night, I was talking to my friend sitting on the stairs. They eventually went off to the toilets, and I continued sitting where I was. A bouncer came up to me, grabbed me, and put me in a tight head-lock while I was texting on my phone (I can only assume they thought I was so drunk that I had to sit down on the stairs, despite being sober). He started to drag me down the stairs. I pulled his arm away, not being able to breathe - again, sober. My only guess to what happened next was that my nails had dug into his arms, because supposedly he had told the other bouncers that I had attacked and bitten him on the arm at random. They then beat me up, and continued to when I was out and down the path from the club, leaving me bruised and bleeding on the pavement. Everyone else present said I'd done nothing wrong, questioned the bouncers and disagreed with their responses. In the UK, as a bouncer it is illegal to use physical force against anyone who has not physically threatened anyone else. It is also the law that when you accuse someone as such, that you provide proof. Yet when questioned, even by me continuously, their only excuse was 'my colleague mate said you bit him' - even if it were true, it would be illegal to use more extreme physical force. I unfortunately didn't seek the police, who would've warranted the security tapes and taken action. This is not uncommon. If you look at the Google reviews, Facebook reviews, or anecdotal evidence, it is common. Despite that, it's expense, and often empty. The staff are unfriendly, and people only really give this place good reviews over a lack of options and drunkenness. This is one of the worst clubs, and gay clubs, I've been to.
Met our lad here in 2000 19. loved his laugh but not his money as he was skint. got married (gota blue ring) then 4 days laer he found someone who likes leaves. So we got devorsed. he is called albert winchester, he is a spoon. i still fancy him loads. hes my pride and joy. but anyway your bar is trash. GET IN THE BIN!!!!!!
Absolutely disgusted at how I was dragged out of the club by 5 doorman for standing up on the sofa's. No warning was given, no approaching me to talk calmly. Pushed to the floor and dragged out. I'm 5'7...it doesn't take 5 grown men to do that. The club was dead. How you have these door staff working for you is beyond me, absolutely disgusting. Power hungry, ignorant jobs worths. This matter has been taken further as it is completely unacceptable.
15 ENTRY! You arrive to be met by rude staff, even ruder bouncers who proceeds to insult, mock and hassle you. Once you make your way through all that, you’re met with 15 to get in, which is not only the most expensive place in the town, it’s so unjustifiable that I walked out, the club is sticky, smells and has a horrible vibe. The worst club I’ve been too, steer clear and save yourself money and time by walking the other way.
What a waste of a night! Would avoid until they sort staff and venue out.
