Reviews of Engine Rooms
Á. S. B.Great venue, great crowd, amazing sound, awesome staff! Guns N' Roses Experience would like to thank you for the sold-out gig! Seeya next time! Top notch place.
T. P.Gig was absolutely electric, can feel the bass and music through body and soul.
Small venue so feels like a more private show, great location and easy too access.
R. G. (.What a brilliant venue, loads of parking as its in an industrial estate. Superb staff, who were so helpful. The lovely lady on the bar got me a stool so I could sit down as being an old man I had a sciatica attack in my legs during the concert I went to watch. Nothing was a problem for the team there, everyone was so friendly.
The sound was so good every texture was clear and crisp, the lights and visuals were gorgeous. I would definitely choose the Engine Room again as a venue to visit.
A. R.Been for a couple gigs here & it's been a delightful experience. Friendly staff, quick service at the bar and some great names on the lineups. Reasonable pricing on tickets even for big name artists. Fast becoming a preferred venue for me!
A. C.Great venue to see your favourite band, sound was very good. The bar only had bottles and cans and a little expensive
J. I.Brilliant atmosphere at the Jo Whiley 90's event. Will definitely go again to any other events that us Oldies can attend. Drinks are a bit pricey and selection limited but still a great night out. It went too quickly!!
N. T.Always a good venue to go to, I've seen several bands here and I've enjoyed all the shows I've seen. However, I have one complaint... There is nowhere to put your drinks down. The bar staff don't like you standing at the bar (we got moved on twice) and they don't like you leaving you drinks on the bar. However, there is nowhere else to put them down, you can't greet your friend properly or doing anything, like visit the rest rooms until you finished your glass. All it needs is a few high tables dotted around to place your glasses down.
I. S.I'm knocking off a star for the poor beverage selection, and their price. Otherwise, if you want to see a live rock or dance or hip hop show in Southampton, of moderate size, where could you go? They put the shows on and that deserves good marks by my reckoning. Just saw the lovely Cate Le Bon and will see De La Soul on Friday.
N. M.Haven't been to a gig for 25 years or more since the golden years of The Joiners in the early/mid 90s. And never with my partner Louise. So for her birthday got Reef tickets at the Engine rooms. Well walked in and felt like 25 again. Reef, absolutely the greatest band I've ever seen, should be playing stadiums every song was an anthem. Keeping my eyes peeled for more bands to see.
J. C.Fantastic live venue. Walkable from West Quay/parking.
£5 for a can of beer is slightly pricier than I’d have expected/hoped but a great venue nonetheless.
Keep music alive.
T. G. Y. (.Brilliant band. Great atmosphere. Good door staff.. Great venue 👍
V. R.Great venue, small enough to be intimate but big enough for good sound and excellent atmosphere. Good bar. Toilets were basic but usable.
M. J.Great little venue easy to find plenty of parking good acoustics
P. S.Saw Creeper (again) in their home town. Really good support acts as well. Maybe I should be slightly offended that my grey hair meant I didn't have to produce ID, but my daughter thought it was hysterical 😂.
First time there - will definitely go again
S. 7.Great little venue that serves Old Specled Hen in glass bottles. I saw Cast here and the lighting and sound etc were spot on.
R. S.Saw German band Tangerine Dream do their thing...Great sound and lighting. Knock 1 star as extortionate price for cans of Old Speckled Hen, criminal prices.....put it this way a 4 pack from Tescos will cost you less than 1 can from their bar ! Be warned. Best to have a pint elsewhere before you visit. No excuse for rip off prices at all.
A. W.Great venue for live music. Saw Tangerine Dream. Awesome. Also impressed with bar prices as did not feel ripped off. Recommended
F. A.Swiftageddon, the night where all songs are exclusively Taylor Swift, is one of the best nights you can go to. And what a splendid host Engine Rooms is. What. A. Vibe.
H.Great venue, tucked away in a warehouse away from the hustle and bustle.
A. \.Very good venue with great sound, a bit out of the way but good parking opportunities once you're there
G. J.Great venue, sounded great, easy bar access, easy merchandise access, toilets are not the best I've seen but hold up. Smoking area for those who indulge. What more could you ask for, never had a bad night there.
Might be a bit out on a limb for some but as the city grows it gets smaller, 5 minute walk from West Quay.
s. l.Great little venue strange place to have said venue least you won't get any complaints about noise
D. S.Great night at the Engine Rooms with Craig Charles.Friendly security staff, no queues at the bar, lots of room to dance. Only let down was the length of wait to get coats from the cloakroom.
O. V.Great little venue, not sure if they have bathrooms or not and the bar is a little small, proportionate I suppose. Much easier to get as close as you want than say Wembley and should you or whoever you happen to be with hear the call of nature its relatively easy to regain your prior position and regroup.
j. u.Brilliant gig, nice venue, wish they had enforced mask wearing though and negative LFT proof, i tested, wore a mask, 3 days later became unwell, 4 more days tested positive. At a time where 1 in 16 people has it i felt precautions couldve been upped.
O. M.Lovely small independent venue, drinks are reasonable at about 4 quid a pint, venue not too cramped like other venues I've been to, great acoustics and friendly staff
J.This place is awesome! Such a great atmosphere and sound. One of the best gigs I've been too for years.
M. P.A good, modern venue with good sound and a decent bar. It can get extremely hot in summer - like most music venues
J. M.Great venue, with great staff and great music. Head here for a banging night out.
D.Great lil venue with a decent bar & great sounds
T. R.Always a great time to be had here, queueing and admission, ticket entry very thorough, staff are friendly, drinks are reasonable, entertainment always spot on!
M. B. (.Fantastic venue, very cosy, great sound, ample parking nearby.
H. D.Middle class warehouse vibes, with djs playing a range of electronic music as well as concerts/gigs of all genres. The bar staff are quick
N. B.A great venue in regards to atmosphere and sound. The let down is the drink prices which are just far too high
K. R.Awsome venue. Went to see state champs. I got injured from the crazy crowd but was looked after greatly by security
D. L.Excellent venue. Well organised, with friendly staff. Will definitely go again.
A. P.Excellent little venue, great bands but as usual expect to be ripped off for a bottle of beer!!!
P. N.Great venue for a gig and to see live bands, but the drinks are expensive and timings for the band's to start are vague, so be prepared for a wait.
Really intimate and if the sound of the band is balanced correctly, a perfect small venue
M. N.We went to the engine rooms to see badmanners, our first gig since the panademic..We were still abit wary but didn't need to worry ..The venue had it totally under control , plenty of security staff to monitor and control entry . All covid passports were being checked as with entry tickets . Plenty of ventilation and sanitiser stations in place and ppl were doing there own distancing.. all the staff I spoke to were very professional and friendly. The band were awesome as always and I even was kindly given a gig poster at the end ..all round 10 out of 10 from me. Thanks engine room look forward to our next gig with you 😀
T. 1.Swiftogeddon @ the Engine Rooms Southampton. Great venue, great Vale drinks, door staff were great and bar staff were friendly.
K. D.Pretty decent venue. Unfortunately not a great selection of beers. . It's ok if you like larger or cider. They only have John Smith's smooth as a single option for bitter/ale Which of course must be served a glass/carton
O. J. M.For a warehouse venue for events, it does its job, but having gone here half a dozen times I can't say I'm the biggest fan.
Firstly, the location is a joke. Ubers will cost you at least £16, but probably £20 EACH WAY if you're lucky, as I've spent 45 minutes before on the search function. You need to be prepared to walk into town (20 minutes) to get a normal taxi. So bring a coat and use the expensive cloakroom. The queue has taken 45 minutes every single time I've been and it's freezing in the docks.
Second, there's only one bar (4 bartenders) in a 500-600 person venue, so queues are typically 10 minutes and bartenders are too stressed to tell you the price of anything. Pricing is standard.
Third, what goes on on the stage is often questionable. The last two times I've been there there's just been a lone guy in regular clothes dancing on the stage for hours without any function... I'm not a big fan of the DJs they've had in and it limits a single-stage venue.
Lastly, security are mean. They're thorough, which is good, but they regularly kick out completely sober guys for little to no reason and just claim they're drunk, which is evident by the line of guys outside complaining. I once had a chat with one foot on the pavement outside and the security moved me onto the street and said that I couldn't come back in.
B. Y.Great venue saw dave Hill from slade and what a mega brill concert
M. C.I've been to quite a few gigs in my wheelchair now and while the Engine Rooms isn't perfectly designed for wheelchair users the staff more than made up for it. They were all so kind and extremely helpful, they made a usually stressful experience much better for me, and I assume all the other people that required extra assistance. Also the bar was pretty reasonably priced which was a nice surprise.
G. v. b.Love this venue. Wish more big bands would play here
H. T.Always a great atmosphere, honestly my favourite place to go out. Bloody pricey but haven't had a bad night there so far!
P. M.@realkiefer was awesome. Venue was rather warm but got warmer by the minute as Kiefer rocked the crowd with his fab band.
S. H.Great small venue which really makes use of the space. There is a peculiar quirk in that handwashing facilities are unisex while the toilets themselves are separate. The bar is well stocked and the staff are friendly and helpful. There is a nice seating area cordoned off by a curtain on gig nights so you still feel like you are part of the show. The main stage area feels intimate yet you don't ever feel claustrophobic. Had some great nights in this venue. Easy to access too and you can find it in the industrial park opposite the Ikea.
P. C.Loved the evening tint bit crowded but I love the atmosphere abit tricky to get to bar with all the people
J. “. S.Good sound system, however no wine served at the bar!!
G.Good 500/600 capacity gig venue with intimate atmosphere. Unexpectedly good, given its location on an industrial estate, but easily accessible from Southampton centre/Town Quay area. Plenty of parking nearby.
M. S.Saw co headline of Oasis and Stone Roses tribute acts, both bloody good!
A. R.Very good venue, friendly staff, quite well organised, would have been at least a 4 star if they had not had problems with the toilets during our visit.
No other issues during the evening, except some confusion about the exits at the end of the night.
G. C.Loved the venue. Easy parking outside. Great Band ( Working Mens Club) excellent acoustics. Perfect small venue.
L. R.Nice cozy place. Good chance to see the performer closer to you than usual.
G. L.Good open dance club space, very spacious
C. H.Was here on Sunday with *space' what a great venue , nice backstage area and all the staff are great.
S. M.Good venue parking on st outside gig.
D. H.Fantastic venue will go again 👍☺️☺️
A. P.First time here first gig since 2019 due to covid saw british lion on tuesday 23rd nov 6ft from stage still slightly deaf this is what it is all about great place friendly staff great sound well recommended
M. W.Great venue! Seen quite a few tribute and 'real' bands. Never disappointed with the venue, sound, lights, beer. It's all great.
O. W.Saw Coheed and Cambria supported by Thank You Scientist, and Polyphia. It was an amazing experience, especially meeting Coheed with platinum VIP, I got a signed t shirt too.
J. B.This is the perfect venue to get up close to the performance. I've seen Reef and Echo and the Bunnymen here and thoroughly enjoyed both.
m. g.Brilliant small venue. Park in West Quay multi story for £2 for the evening
T. U.Went on a weds night just over a week ago, off there again tonight and comfortable with the fact staff and security were all a.azing and helpful, there were no unruly folk ( the rock community are awesome) Great place with enough capacity to not feel like a sardine!
M. W.Incredible venue with a fantastic sound system, including some filthy bassbins! Quick bar staff and always a good vibe
C. M.Great venue, decent acoustics.
P. C.Went to see Altered Images great to be able to see live music again.
T. S.Not a bad place to see a gig, bar is very small,and security are not good, power mad, and unprofessional make you feel like you are in prison, floor was so sticky but this is normal in a small piece but was pretty bad.
V.good venue with good sound and good priced drinks
M. Z.It was my first time going here for the District Halloween event last night, I am due to come here for my first gig on the 28th. Even though I went by myself trying to make friends who like rock music, everyone is friendly and helpful, the security people at the door told me I can speak to them if I need help with anything, the bar staff were friendly, the music is epic and the atmosphere is amazing! 🖤🤟🏾 Everyone is happy and friendly all enjoying themselves together, you feel so welcome. Very excited to go to my first gig!
M. A.Great venue. Been a few times and always had a good night.
A. L.Really nice venue, stays cool really well, and quite spacious for the amount of people who were there.
Their bar is a bit boring, as they don't have much variety at all, and the smoking area was an okay size.
Noise quality was good, and the staff all seemed very friendly, no issues at all.
K. H.We went to the Sausage and Cider Festival and found the Engine Rooms to be a bit of a shed. Not nearly enough bar staff behind the small bar whilst the sausage stalls along the side were massive with more room than they needed. The smoking area was space behind a wire fence and the toilets were unisex by the look of it. We were at the back and the sound was pretty good. Overall a bit rough and ready.
J. V.Strangely located in the middle of an industrial estate which makes this venue a little isolated from the rest of the town but not horrendously so.
If you were being cruel you'd say that it was just a one room shed with a stage at one end and a bar at the other but this makes life easy. By far the easiest venue I can think of to get out after the gig, no stumbling on stairs in a slow shuffling crowd in the dark.
Stage is a decent height for a venue of this size particularly when you account for the relatively low ceiling height.
S. S.Came here for an alternative night and it was pretty brilliant. Music was great and the hall/stage is laid out pretty well. Toilets are a bit odd but after a few drinks who really cares. Reason for not giving 5 stars is because they didn't have salt or lime for tequila shots, which is a night out tradition for my friends and I. Also a little wait to be served but they could have been short staffed, but I look forward to going back another time.
L. H.Great venue for live music
S. H.Great venue, easy parking, great sound system. The Trevor Nelson night there was awesome!
D. I. S.Great venue. Just seen Inglorious. It was lovely to see so many people getting back to 'live music' after the scamdemic.
T. H.Great venue. Good size, good acoustics, easy parking, drinks reasonable price.
t.Been to a few gigs here. And is a small venue so intimate. The sound is good, in summer does feel like you're in a tin shed (which I like) but the temperature can escalate. Been there on a few club nights and with both bars open, either end it makes it easy enough to get drinks. Toilets are fine too, not that exactly hang around there!
Not sure if prices vary between events but found it reasonable, same as most other places. Wish they had regular things that interest me, but currently maybe only visit a couple times a year, but always a good time!
M. L.For the size and capacity of the venue, the bar is way to small. For the 2hr 45min we where there, we spent 1hr 20min queing to buy just two rounds. It was also very hot. Although the venue clearly has ventilation it was not switch on. Could have been a good night, but ended up disappointed I'm afraid.
M. B.Rating depends on the group playing at the time. But this time was good
G. F.Been to a couple of gigs here now and it's a great intimate venue. Parking isn't bad, DO NOT USE IKEA YOU COULD GET SHUT IN!! I use the west quay multi storey.
The sound system is pretty good and for me is clearer than most large concert halls. The bass is body shaking and there's not that sharp high end that large places seem to suffer from. If you are going to a seated gig don't expect luxury chairs. They're the sort your community hall has for events.
What can I say, it's a basic venue but it makes up for it with that intimate nature.
Z. W.Great venue. Friendly staff
M. A.Small place. Good for live music. A bit out of the way, I just parked outside.
G. H.Great night,very Helpful Staff.
f. s.Was a brilliant night. The staff were friendly and polite while queuing and then more of the same inside.
G. W.Polite and efficient staff, good sound, quick service on the bar
S.I saw Fear Factory play at The Engine Rooms a year or two ago and it was awesome. Ever since I've kept an eye on them and they've consistently pulled in bands that you wouldnt expect to see at a venue of its size. Not sure how I feel about the venue itself as I remember it having ventilation issues but that seems like a minor complaint when they're the only venue in Hampshire pulling in certain acts.
D. H.A good venue to see bands. Good sound, stage and views. Quite simple and no-nonsense. But cans and bottles only at the bar and £4.20 for a can of Fosters.
J. L.Limited sitting room but a good venue for dancing! Doors opened at 7, first act came on at 8, played for about 30 mins then second act at 9 for about 45 mins followed by the main act (The Magic Gang) who played for a good hour! The evening started off a bit shakey but was great by the end!! Bar staff were very friendly and provided plenty of water for the end of the concert! All round great experience!
K. H.Great local venue with decent AC and reasonable bar prices.
A. P.Decent music venue. Have seen a few live bands. It is quite big and acoustics are not the greatest but not terrible either. Well situated with access to parking close by.
M. H.Booked this for my daughter's 11th birthday party. All the girls enjoyed the roller disco and had a great time. They spent 2 hours roller skating and by the end of the session they had the floor to themselves. Went to McDonald's for tea after. This place has a bar and decent toilets. Parking is limited but on the day we went, we had no trouble parking right outside.
D. H.Pretty small but for a concert they don't cram you in even at full capacity. Great venue but bar bit much money for my liking. Definitely good for a gig of a lesser known band if you like them
S. C.Great venue, quite intimate with the bar area slightly separated from the live music area, so you don't have to listen to people shouting their drink orders over the music.
Looking forward to my next visit.
C. D.I've tolerated this venue for a few years now because they have good bands, you can get in close to the atmosphere and the sound is usually great.
But last night the venue were exceptionally bad hosts. Left out in the cold waiting to get in, door staff apologised, thank you.
But then ... no alcohol free beer. No apology but ok, I will drink err lemonade if you can't make me a coffee. I was nominated driver.
And then came the really bad bit. After the first round... no lemonade, no coke, in fact no mixers at all. And can we wait 5 minutes whilst one of the bar staff goes to the shop?! Shockingly awful.
And as the evening went on it got worse. Bottled beer all gone. Run out of bottles of coke and lemonade - again.
Omg the poor staff trying to run this poor excuse for a bar. Please help them Engine Room owners, it was an embarrassment.
M. C.Great venue to see real music
J. R.Great sound system and lighting. Security is friendly.
F. B.Great venue for small to medium famed bands to play. Have always had a good night here. Tickets usually fairly cheap. Friendly staff, only downside I see is having the drinks served in cans
S. S.Went to see Cast, which was a great gig, but the venue didn't quote live up to expectations. They left the crowd outside waiting for over 15 minutes in cold December rain, because they were late for sound checks, which wasn't great.
H. w.great small venue. good views wherever you stand. about a fiver per drink. they take card payment. no AC so no coats needed hahah. toilets have shared sinks. fairly easy to get too.
L. D.This is a decent venue equipped for some pretty big bands now. Nice to finally have something like this in Southampton, for music that won't quite fill the Guildhall. If there's something here that you want to go watch, the venue is decent, so go for it.
N. N. R. C.Best place for live music.
A. R.Great small venue for gigs. Good atmosphere. Friendly staff. £3 for a bottle of 70p water though, that’s a bit shocking. 24 hour parking in the WestQuay multi-storey carpark a short walk away.
s. c.Good size venue for live music but no seats
D. H.First time being at this venue and I'll be back friendly staff good sound . Drinking just beer and it was a good atmosphere nice place to watch some of your favourite bands if you get the chance 🤘🤪
H.Fantastic gig venue, has a brilliant atmosphere!
S. R.Great "School reunion" gig by The Undertones = 80s schoolmates meeting-up. Bar was a bit undermanned. Sensible "gig prices" (£4 per beer). Got hot in there which is expected. A bit more ventilation would help but wont spoil the night. Attend any gig there as the intimacy is real & authentic.
A. L. W.Awesome sound, great addition to the Southampton music scene. Saw Don Broco and they put on a great show. Bar staff are all friendly, and plenty of them so there's no long waits!
R. K.Nice little venue, had a great night!
M. K.Really decent venue for bands - saw three there tonight, all really good, but unusually the best of them actually played as supporting act, rather than the headliner!
S. B.Very good sound......seen a few gigs here now.....nice intimate venue....only 800 when fully opened up. Omly downsde is its all on one level so if you're vertically challenged then a tall person is guaranteed to stand in front of you.....
S.Been here for a couple of events now, one being Mo'Roller a couple of years ago and the other being Delain playing with guests Evergrey and Kobra And The Lotus. Mo'Roller had good music, fair prices, is one of the few places left that have an over 18s roller disco, and the venue has a good, albeit a little small, floor to skate on. Delain playing there was simply amazing. The acoustics were spot on, I feel suitably deafened!!! The price of the concert was very cheap for what was an absolutely amazing night. The atmosphere was brilliant, and there weren't big queues for the bar or toilets throughout the night. The only issue we had was that there was a delay in the venue being opened, so by the time we had gotten in and found our place, the first band had already started. Other than that, this is a great all-rounder of a venue!
L. o. t. C.Great venue. Sound is always pretty solid and I've yet to see a bad gig there! One negative, drinks are in cans etc, with nothing on tap.
d. b.Great little venue. Bit of a queue for the bar, but that's not unusual. £2.80 for a small bottle of water. Thought a bit crowded when I saw Wilko Johnson, so 4 out of 5.
S. S.Saw Scouting for girls. Excellent night venue is ok but gets a bit hot.
C. L.Great venue! Lots of space and a great mix of acts of all genres. Don't be put off that it's on an industrial estate - that gives it more parking and no neighbours to worry about!
a. b.£5 for can of beer is a joke,that works out @ £80 per case,nice work if you can get,not even a full pint !@$
B. R.Great venue and very good line up of bands. Service at the bar could be quicker. I'll definitely be going back again soon.
J. G.Great music venue.
Efficient friendly staff.
A. Y.Good venue, a diverse range of acts play here, alcohol is overpriced, the last time I went here: £4.50 for a can (!) of Kronenbourg
W. S.Nice venue, great sound, very relaxed atmosphere
Reasonably priced drinks.
Plenty of parking in the area, £2 in the multistory if you arive after 5pm
C. D.Great live music venue, great sound, big enough for a decent crowd but you can still get close to the band. Alcohol choice is nothing too special but does the job!
K. W.Saw Magnum here with some friends. Venue was on an industrial estate and looked a bit weird. However, once inside it was really good. Nice long bar, and the sound was very very good. Will be back I am sure.
J. M.Pigsx7 rocked this venue
S. M.Nice large venue with multiple metal gigs taking place throughout the year. Only downfall is that they only take card.(no cash)
R.Get yourself some Jägerbombs, was 3 for £5 on the Friday I went. Bar staff were quite slow however. Great night for a live music event
M. C.A really good venue. The drinks are a bit expensive but other than that I think it's probably the best place to see live bands in Southampton.
J. H.Excellent music venue, saw AC/DC tribute band and was not disappointed. Acoustic s, staff, beer all good. Would recommend.
D. H.Went to see Hazel O'Connor which was brilliant..The seating however was small fold up stools that would be better used in a nursery class as most people at this venue were over the age of 30 and probably found as we did that sitting on tiny chairs for nearly 4 hours is very uncomfortable...
K. L. S.Great venue and love seeing live bands there. Reasonable drinks prices. Could work on he air con a bit as it gets sweltering!
N. S.I have never been out in Southampton. We are all living in Bournemouth. One of us wasn't drinking so drove. We parked very close. Queue was quick and service at bar
Only down side all the lady loo ran off paper by mid night
J. S.It has 2 rooms (upstairs and down stairs. The toilets were confusing as it's same entrance but girls turn right and it's there. The downstairs have a big stage. On a ztuesday they do beginners and intermediate serock classes.
M. C.Just saw Delain play. Great band, good sound and lighting. The Engine Rooms venue is long and thin and the stage small so the bands looked cramped, and is located in an industrial estate so no organised parking.
J. H.A good small venue. Sound was ok. Reasonably priced bar. Limited on street parking payable up to 8pm. Right by the cruise terminal.
A. H.Loved it here watched sham 69 great atmosphere
A. S.Bar staff brilliant. Intimate space.
a.i saw wild front there they were so good! the building was a bit crowded but i dont go to many gigs so i dont know how it might compare to other places. anyways it was amazing and they served free water after because it got rlly hot in there
T.Spacious good for live music
A. R.Really awesome venue, seen some great bands here . However it does get insanely hot inside quite quickly
J. G.Saturday 8th February AC/DC UK was amazing, Great sound lighting and stunning performance from all the band 10 out of 10
B. S.Good venue good sound and quick bar service due to serving canned lagar. Can sometimes take a while to get in so get there early even it it's to support the support band
A. B.Brilliant gig here last night watching band of skulls. Great sound system and great lighting. Good sized bar right at the entrance.
N. P.Very minimalist, i like that. Cavetowns performance on Dec 1st 2019 was incredible. Friendly staff, good vibe, and amazing time. 10/10
J. R.Adds to a restricted list of decent band venues in Southampton. Good layout for bar/gig. Enjoyed my last few visits
f. w. a. g.The roller disco music is dia! Could be quite good there otherwise. Fairly expensive and they kick you out early if it's quite, which it is as no one likes the music! 😂☹ Can park very close though
F. J.Went to see EODM ok the beers was pricey but who cares it's about the music and that was awesome . I love these small venues , great atmosphere and friendly staff . Will defo go again .
A. H.Another brilliant little venue location for a variety of music tastes. Sound and lighting on par and overall experience was amazing.
S. W.No beers on tap, and acoustics not amazing. Good size venue and still worth going if decent bands playing.
H. M. G. H.Absolutely awesome venue! Also they sell beer in cans which is easier to hold when rocking out! 😘😘😘
D. c.Pretty cool venue, great sound and easy to get to, drinks are typical venue prices and toilets are very nice.
M. B.Embrace were fantastic, but the band kept complaining they couldn't hear the crowd. Probably not the best venue for music.
h. h.the best dnb nights ! wish they hosted more! large spacious venue and great music obviously !
S. E.Superb music venue. Great size, good acoustics. They get a good range of acts in as well.
S. L.Great venue, could do with faster bar service as took an age to get served on a busy night here but enjoyed the gig and venue.
L. T.Was alright. Its typical of a grunge alternative venue really. Limited, basic, alcohol. Toilets abit dingy, but again typical for an alternative venue. Easy to find
G. T.Great little venue. Good sound and a good bar (although cans!). Friendly staff too
A. L.Great venue, this is my second trip, first to see monster magnet, this time ugly kid Joe, and in going back in October for corrosion of conformity, can't wait, if they keep getting great bands in, it's a good place to see them play.. 😆
K. T.Great local live music venue
P. R.Went to the roller disco with a bunch of kids. Good atmosphere and helpful staff. Only downside no where to have your own lunch if with a big group
S.Small music venue, big noise!
P. M.Great venue, I watched PIL there tonight, they were fantastic! Some air conditioning would be most welcome mind 👍
J. G.Go to Ceroc Modern Jive on Tuesday night's. Nice atmosphere. This venue normally has live bands.
A. P.Went to see The Specials, great night, really helpful staff
M. L.Very nice venue. Went to a cider festival and loved it. Great atmosphere and music.
C. J.Great venue for live bands with a good sound. Drinks are served in tons and are pricey
L. S.Loved it loved it loved it.. In the strangest location with an unassuming exterior but great surprise once inside.. Great sound quality and decent bar
W. C.Love this place, it's a small venue but that adds to the enjoyment of seeing a band up close. The Rasmus were excellent, as ever.
