Customer Review Summary
Reviewers most often single out the music, with proper throwbacks and pop tunes that keep the dance floor packed, and one describes the YMCA flowing straight into another party track and still working. Close behind is the staff, called friendly and helpful across the bar team and door staff, with one reviewer crediting the management for making the venue feel safe and another noting nothing is too much trouble when helping disabled customers. Drinks also draw praise as strong, with great deals and decent prices. Reviewers also mention plenty of space so it doesn't feel cramped, plus a covered smoking area out the back. The complaints are few and specific. One reviewer found the music really loud on a quiet Saturday teatime and noted that only bottled beer was sold, and another said it was a little warm inside. One reviewer reports regularly travelling from Manchester because they prefer this branch to the one there.
