“Regulars Only” After asking where we were from, the doorman refused entry and said the venue was “regulars only,” suggesting we go elsewhere. This is meant to be an LGBTQI club, so the lack of inclusivity was surprising and left a poor impression. Upon reading the reviews, we were probably better off not getting in to be honest.

I came to this so called nightclub to celebrate my friends birthday. Apparently they allowed students to enter for a discounted price with proof they are a student so I showed my University of South Carolina student digital ID + my UNiDAYS verification and they said I needed to have the physical card which is completely unreasonable considering the college is in the US when I had 3 proof of student verification. Once I payed and entered the “nightclub” they had a bar with discounted prices when I tried to pay they stated they only took cash and had no ATM so I went to another bar out back of this one they stated they were not open? They had 2 bars open both completely overfilled may I add. Once I eventually got served we found an area with good music after around 30 minutes they changed the music to what I would describe as TikTok music which was not described as the theme considering everyone told me this was a dance music floor and every single other room was playing these crazy mix up “TikTok” style songs. To top off the whole experience I was at a stand up table looking down at people dancing and had a near full drink sitting at my table & one of the staff took it away without asking if I were done so of course as anyone would I went to the bar to complain & request a new one. I was told to keep an eye on my drink and if I want another I have to buy another one. I was standing at my table with the drink in front of me attempting to enjoy the atmosphere? Ridiculous establishment with no respect for their customers. Cannot believe how busy the place was for the staff being so ignorant of the people paying good money to be there. Only good part about this club was their security team who were identifying people who were not paying or meant to be there.

Kremlin has great music and cool Soviet-style décor, but the vibe felt mixed. The crowd was fun, yet the door staff were rude and unwelcoming. Drinks were fine, though overpriced. It’s worth visiting once for the experience, but not the friendliest LGBTQ+ space in Belfast. Three stars overall.

I do want to enter in club it the entry closes at 2 am and I was in quew at 1 am not only me there are a lot of people back and front of me all of sudden they said the we are close and we don’t allow you but hry are allowing some people as the club have stamped but who they are allowing they don’t have stamp I did spoke to manager in front of club they said it’s our wish and the security guard says it’s our wish aswell I did call to to manager number from websit I did spoke to the manager she talk to me she didn’t say her name and she did hang up the call , again I did call some person did answer the call and he spoke to me at explain all my problem. This is what going out with me he says to me you can’t do anything. This is our rule. This is we make the rule even you complain to Police no one can do anything he says like this to me, and the thing is I did recorded the call and I do have pictures of the security guards. I want to send a mail to the Club manager. Can you please explain how to mail the manager?

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ One of the best clubs in Belfast! I've been going to Kremlin since 2021, and it’s hands-down one of the best nightclubs in Belfast. The vibe is always electric — from the incredible lighting and sound system to the friendly and diverse crowd, it never disappoints. The music is absolutely top-tier. A big shout-out to DJ Franky Mac, who used to light up Thursdays and now brings his magic to Playroom Monday nights. His music sense is on point — he knows exactly what the crowd wants, and keeps the energy flowing from start to finish. Every set feels fresh, fun, and perfectly tuned to the night’s vibe. DJ Greath Woods is another standout, especially on the weekends. He brings an incredible mix of bangers, house, and remixes that get the entire dancefloor moving. KREMLIN Gives you the kind of atmosphere where you lose track of time because you're having such a great night. If you're looking for a place with good music, a buzzing crowd, and a safe, inclusive atmosphere — Kremlin is the place to be. Whether you're new to the city or a regular like me, you'll feel right at home.

stood at the smoking area in the bar for a few minutes away from my friends to get fresh air, to be approached by one of the female bouncers and ushered out - without any explanation behind why. instead of telling me what i apparently did she whispered to the bouncer on the door and left. stood back in line again and when i arrived back at the door was told i wasn’t allowed in. asked why and the bouncer was incredibly immature and wouldn’t answer me, then blamed it on me cursing at him. spoke to the manager who was the only person who treated me with respect but ended up leaving before i found out what happened. horrible experience, bouncers are extremely snobby. wont be back

The Kremlin is *not* a gay bar/nightclub. Can't believe how much it has changed over the last few years. I could find literally 1 or 2 gay guys there the busiest night of the year. Every single guy I approached was straight. I appreciate it's not lawful to turn away people for being hetrosexual, but Gay nightclubs in England do a lot more to dissuade straight people from entering. Other than that the bouncers were friendly and the music was great.

Overpriced massively and certainly overrated.If you only like chart music, the most basic of club songs, extremely rude regulars and staff then look no further. So much better options out there such as boombox or libertine. In 2022 it's also not a great look to have a statue of Vladmir Lenin out the front, other things stuck in 1917 is the fact they also do not accept card payments on entry - this would be understandable if your drink prices reflected that you are paying no tax, however they will still charge you extortionate prices for anything (nobody pays like queer safe spaces ey?).Honesty by a country mile the WORST club in Belfast if you like queer spaces union street is a much better vibe w very lovely people unlike the ogre staff who work here. I have never been removed from any club except this one. However any time I have been unfortunate enough to be dragged here they seem to always find one reason or another to remove me it's honestly somewhat of a godsend. Last night this was because I was complaining about the club to a friend then getting chucked out because I must have hurt the door staffs feelings (small di*k energy). Anyways that's my rant over but I do advise you go literally anywhere else over here.

Probably one of the better clubs in Belfast; however the door staff are horrible and they serve drinks in plastic cups. They will literally pour a bottle of beer flat into a cup. Mad queues for bar as well. Recommend Tuesdays as it’s cheap as hell
