Normally great, on Friday, GREAT (was until 5am there) but today there was a creepy guy in the door who wouldn’t let alone girls in, not even if their friends were inside, unless they spent some time with “persuading” him. So disgusting for women, as for the girls we met there’re in the queue. We have been there lately but definitely never again. If we were back home we would have reported to the police today’s incident with that perturbing employee. I would like to punctualize that service inside is great (other occasions I had experience, but the chunky disturbing guy in the door today ruined it all.

Hi, I’d like to raise a concern regarding an incident at your venue on 11/06/26. I was with the person who was accused of throwing a glass from the balcony and can confirm that I did not see them throw anything. They repeatedly denied the allegation and asked staff to review the CCTV properly, but were still removed from the venue. Because of the way the situation was handled, I felt uncomfortable remaining in the club and decided to leave as well, which brought an early end to our night. From what I witnessed, the decision to remove them appeared to be based on a general description rather than clear identification. I would ask that this matter be investigated thoroughly, including a review of the CCTV footage and the actions of the staff involved. If it is confirmed that the wrong person was identified, I believe an apology would be appropriate. Thank you.

This review is dedicated to the lovely staff and drag performers I have met at this bar/venue! Even the bouncers on the door are amazing. I really have loved the vibes being in here, from the lights, to the balcony smoking area and even the third floor! I have thoroughly enjoyed seeing all the girls who do the door, the performances and even hosting! Specific shout out to Lavender Sniff (Sniffy), as I really loved the viewing parties that she hosted for RPDR UK S7. They were fun, smart and came along with some fabulous guests. I would just love to see her host even more shows in OnBar!
