Solid venue though I do wish they would allow a more powerful sound system in there. Staff are lovely and the atmosphere is great.
Saw Notion and Oppidan. Sat 28th Sept 24. Positives - The sound system is surprisingly good, and lights are cool. Atmosphere was decent. Quite a cool venue! Active welfare tent. Great bouncers. Negatives - technical difficulties interrupted Notions set a few times, killing the vibe. £5 for a single drink. Toilets are upstairs and small.
Inadequate venue...premium prices for drinks...and tickets but can't manage to provide sufficient toilets so you're either queuing for ages or forced to leave and then refused re entry. Want to be treated like cattle ..this is the place to be.
Although this venue is a great space for music events the last time I went I was searched multiple times, once on the way in, once in the crowd and once after coming out of a toilet cubicle. This was extremely unnecessary and invasive, being accused of having drugs on me and having to go through this put a huge downer on the night, as a result I left early after paying £20 for a ticket. Such a shame as the previous time I went to the venue I had a really good time but this time was quite the opposite.
the bouncers are really friendly, great venue with a great atmosphere 10/10 would recommend to anyone
Brilliant venue, nice and intimate. Bouncers are some of the friendliest I’ve ever met, as long as your sensible you won’t have any trouble. The venue also attracts friendly people, never seen any trouble there, just 150-250 people all getting along and having fun.
Saw TEED here in October 2016 and had a sick night. Perfect amount of people let in and the bouncers were incredibly friendly so there was no hassle at all. There's a really nice little smoking area with a fair amount of seating. Beers were 4.50 if I recall correctly and there's plenty of bottled water and other drinks to be had. One of my favourite venues now and would happily go again to see more dance music.
