Monastery

Was there for house of god birthday party, banging tunes, interesting venue, reasonable bar prices and ended up a fun messy night!

Tidy little venue, very intimate, in a very very good way. Had the pleasure of Ansome and Rebekah belting out some of the dirtiest techno imaginable here. Epic!

The only fault I could find about this place was that, one of the nights I went to, the music was too loud! Excellent sound system in a room that was just a bit to small to handle it. If you aren't in the habit of carrying earplugs, now might be the time to start. Apart from that, I just love this place. Security are friendly, barstaff too, though I don't drink so I can't comment on how they stand up to p/heads. The layout can be a little confusing the first time you go as there are inside and outside stairs but, hey, you get to explore. Never had a bad night here and their after parties are a great way to finish off your night.

Amazing venue! Cannot fault ANY of the staff (especially the bar maid and Craig!) Music was fab (especially Heritij), setting and lighting was off the scale! Lost my phone and Craig went above and beyond so I could get it back! I'll be back! :)

The negatives are also the positives. It's dingy, smells of damp so bad you are scared you'll get mouldy and I also had a classic club experience of a bounce being rude (standard I guess).However, all that said, the grimy nature of it really does give it character, it is probably the closest you'll get to a ravey / underground feel.The sound system is pretty decent so you might want to take earplugs if you have any care for you hearing. It also isn't too expensive to drink when you're in there.Pre buy your tickets online too. It'll save you a good amount.
