This really could be quite a good club, but the music on the Saturday indie night is pretty poor…read more They have a request system apparrently, but we couldn't get the DJ to play anything we wanted, so I ended up knowing about 5 songs (literally) in 5 hours of clubbing. It's a bit more of a dive than rock city, but the drinks aren't that expensive, and the big sofas upstairs upstairs are well worth checking out

Absolutely stay away from this place. To begin with the bouncers pat down was basically digging in…read moreyour pockets forcefully then shoving you around. They let us in and decided that one of our "Brown" friends was not dressed properly because he had zippers across the knees. Went inside and management yelled at us cause one of us had a hat on. The level of rudeness was unbelievable for a place that was empty! When we asked for a refund on the drinks because of the hat situation the manager threw us out. He walks us outside where we ended up having a shouting match with the manager and the bouncers. The bouncers (who were clearly angry meth heads) began to physically shove us. Stay away from this dump, it needs to be shut down!!

Market Bar in the Lace Market was first described to me as 'a total sweatbox'. It was the first…read moreNottingham club I set foot in, on the first night of Fresher's week. The first thing I saw was a hysterical girl throwing a glass at some dude's head, it smashing on said head, and girl being dragged out screaming. Thankfully that was the only time I saw that - Market Bar plays hip hop and R'n'B. More or less, music for students who don't earn any of their own money yet but love to by champagne and pretend they're a superstar rapper or somesuch. Everyone is looking sexy/glamorous and throwing down some poses. It kind of depends how into that kind of scene you are - after a few visits I decided it was enough for me. Too pretentious.

The Market Bar is Lace Market's trendiest nightspot. It's small and perfectly formed, and plays a…read moremixture of hip-hop, electro, indie and whatever else the dj decides to mash up. They have excellent drinks offers on a Tuesday and Thursday, such as £1.50 doubles and Jagerbombs (slightly lethal) and if you can get on the guestlist, it's cheaper entry. You can also hire it out for parties, fundraising events etc.

Wednesday is a night to let your hair down, with a mixture of 90's pop and current floor-fillers, so there's no point in trying to be cool here. Drinks are reasonable but cheaper before 11pm, perhaps best to come straight from BZR. Don't wear your best shoes as they will most likely come back sticky!

This nightclub is a complete rip off. £20.00 for the Abba Disco tickets, then 1 x half a lager and…read more1 x vodka red bull £16.00. Paid £2.00 to put my coat in the cloakroom, went to go out to meet my other friends and was told that I couldn't put my coat back in the cloakroom and I would have to pay another £2.00 RIP OFF, the toilets stunk, literally stunk, wasted night and definitely not worth the money

I went to the bathroom tonight and I was waiting for my friend so I thought I would talk to the…read morebouncer. I asked the bouncer 'Where are you from?' Trying to make conversation and be polite. Yet the response I got was totally rude: 'fuck off. Get out of my face' 'Excuse me?' I replied 'Fuck off. You think that because I'm black I'm not from here so fuck off, and get out of my face. ' Personally, I thought that that security guards words were totally out of order considering that I thought the other members of staff were so pleasant. As a white male from Ireland (a nation that was ravaged throughout history by the British and who were used as slaves by the British) I find it it very very offensive that he implied that I was racist because of my skin colour. Implying some is racist because of their skin colour is in itself racist. In any case, I am a gay man in Nottingham and loved NG1 before but I don't think I will return if I meet that bouncer in the Bathroom again. I wish him the best with his job searching

They also said that the staff were great and they were very helpfull. The only problem that they did say that they has was that the food ws not that good and the portions were abit small.

Its great to go to for things like leaving partys evan though there is other people there as everyone says the atmosphere is great.(my 6th form go there at the end of the year). At the start of the they said it was clean and tidy but when they left it is was a complete mess which i think shoes they had a good time.

Legendary Liars Club enjoyed so much success in this tiny bar/venue; they upgraded to a bigger venue, but still held every birthday bash they had back at where it all started. If you were lucky, you would have seen bands like The Strokes, White Stripes, Libertines and Klaxons to name a few all pass through these doors. And you would have enjoyed the experience up close and personal with only 150 others. People have lied about the gigs they have seen in that venue to seem cooler than they are. Downstairs is a small bar and small seating area. Expect it to get busy on weekends, and expect to stand, or dance, depending on the dj on either floor. Staff are polite and pretty quick considering that amount of punters they have to deal with, and there are generally good offers on drinks too.
