Really not crazy about the new name of this place, but oh well. I frequent this club for Reverence, a monthly goth night as well as the new Factor IX on Sunday nights. I miss the front bar being open-it was back in the days of Club 21. They just got a new sound system which sounded awesome last night! Several bathrooms, which is nice, but they don't keep them stocked well on toilet seat covers, which is unsanitary. The drinks are SOLID and reasonably priced-$4 rum & coke, $4 sex on the beach, I was pleased. Street parking and there is a lot across the street. read more

Finally a legit salsa place in Sacramento! Cover $5, free water, people are friendly and dancers of all skill levels! Definitely will be coming back! read more

I like this place on Wednesday nights for Salsa. very low cover change *$5!, with a one-hour lesson, and there was a large group of people - with even more men than women, whoot! read more

The bartender accused me of "taking her money" while I was ironing my bills out of my pocket... there wasn't even anyone at the table when I was there read more

Just visited this bar. Went on an 80's night it was so much fun! If you get a chance to go I recommend it.

We have thrown several shows at Barfly and the staff is very laid back and fun. The community that goes there is very diverse and worth exploring everything. read more

I went on a Sunday, Goth night. It was a lot of fun. Lots of great people, all nice and friendly. The only reason I give this a 4/5 is because The Bartender that night was really bitchy and rude. Whatever tho lol I didn't let some mean B1tch ruin my night read more

Friday nights are an electronic dance night and it never disappoints! I love the friendly vibes I get from everyone here. The djs are always good and best part of all is the music never stops. Once a month Requiem throws a bigger event that charges a little bit more but all for a great and choice show. The light fixtures are amazing and definitely compliment the music. read more

I've been here a few times for their EDM night and have had a blast each time. Want to get away from the douchey clubs? Look no further! All employees and most attendees are in a great mood and there to have fun. I'll probably be coming back more frequently this summer! read more

when did this place stop being Club21?? haha well, it has been years since I've been back here, but it looks exactly the same inside. Not really an upscale place but not too shabby either. A friend was DJing here last Friday night, apparently they hold raves here every other Fri...cover charge is a cheap $5!! well drinks are only $4 too! and it wasn't super packed, plenty of space on the dance floor, everyone there was pretty chill that night...younger crowd, not the type of club with creepy old guys that just stand at the bar waiting to hit on you. although that did happen to me as soon as i stepped outside at the end of the night.. oh yeah and nice bouncers, quick line...always a plus! read more

Barfly is spacious, has a great sound system and is a venue for the 18+. The drinks for the 21+ crowd are strong and served quickly. Everyone had a great time and was dancing their they a**es off. read more

Hands down my favorite midweek Salsa venue. $5 gets you in and an hour long lesson with Nicole Lazo and after enjoy social dancing until 1 am. Best bartender ever and drinks are $4 all night long. Everyone is super friendly and there is a taco truck right out front with great eats to keep your dancing energy up. read more

The drinks seemed too small and weak for the price, we went to 80s night and it was pretty empty. One room didn't have anyone in it but I felt like they had better music in it! Also, the bathrooms and cash only kinda blows read more

I've been to the Barfly on several occasions. My new favorite event is the Wednesday night Salsa dancing. There are a variety of dancers and skill levels. Cheap beer and cover charge. Great place to meet fellow salsa enthusiasts. My one complaint would be the dance floor is not suited for salsa dancing. Come and check it out! read more

The club setup itself isn't bad, it has the potential to be a great club. The music they play though is just downright terrible. It is a shitty no base version of dubstep, almost techno. Impossible to dance to unless you pop some ecstasy beforehand. The people who come to this club are... Unique... There were 40 year old+, men walking around in full fuzzy animal costumes, twacked out of their minds. I did not stay long for fear I'd be taken and chained up in someone's basement. I gave it two stars because I'm a thrill seeker and I was more paranoid in this club than a conspiracy theorist smoking pot. read more

Salsa night on Friday is really awesome, however, the downside is there was only one bartender for the whole full packed bar, really not good service, however there was like 5 or 6 security guards read more

I went to Barfly with some friends last Friday night and it was awful. When we walked in just about the only normal looking person told us to get out while we still could. There were probably 20 people total, about 10 of which were my friends. Met one cool person, everyone else was clearly very drugged up and out of it. Almost no one was dancing. read more

My friends and I went there on a Friday night. There were about 40 people there and no one dancing. When you first get there, the employees act as if you are hassling them and wasting their time even though you are a paying customer. Once you get in there, there is a dance floor and a bar in the back. The bar is very basic and all the drinks there are simple. My friends and I went out to the front and they would not let us back in. We were there for fifteen minutes and even though the bouncers saw us go out for a smoke break, they would not let us back in. We talked to the manager and after about a five minute argument we finally got our money back and they told us we cannot come back in. I would not recommend this club if you are trying to have fun. You'll find better service and drinks if you just save your money and stay home. read more

What a great spot for swing dancing on Tuesday nights!! Classes will be beginning at 7:30 followed by the dance at 8:30..Johnny and Tina are excellent instructors!! The bartender is "the best!" The new management is so welcoming. This is a fantastic place for all ages to enjoy their love for swing. read more

Security is extremely unprofessional. I got a full pat down that was completely unnecessary. The clientele here is best described as RATCHET. The music played was awful and everyone there just looked dirty. I work in the music industry and I can tell you with 100 percent confidence that anyone who thinks the sound system is good here is a complete idiot. They have a really cheap system that puts out sloppy bass and highs that'll blow your ear drums out. The dancing lights are so outdated and pathetic. Within 5 minutes of being here my group left. We followed the exit signs and left the club. The security lady then stopped us and yelled at us for using the wrong exit. There were no signs or chains to signal that we used the wrong exit. I am never returning to this establishment again. If you want to "dance" alongside guests wearing gym shorts and a white tee, this is your kind of place. If you seek a classier, cleaner fun filled night, do yourself a favor and find somewhere else! read more
