Perkins Park — Attraction in Stuttgart

Disliked it enough that even though I paid 20euro to taxi there and 10euro entrance fee, within 20 minutes I happily hailed another 20euro ride back to downtown Stuttgart. The club has Dave&Buster's style pricing (i.e., they give you a card, and you don't really know how much anything is, and you settle up when you leave). If you lose the card, you pay the maximum amount allowed on the card (I think 90euro). The drink selection was abysmal. The music was entirely too loud and they might as well just play bayern3 radio - no difference. They literally charge you to sit... every seat and table is in a "vip"/bottle service section. The bouncers are a bit too handsy: not knowing about the pay-to-sit plan, I started walking towards the almost empty seat section to quickly find a gorilla paw squeezing on my arm to alert me. PS, there is no other bar within miles, so when you discover what a terrible waste of space the bar is, you have to plan a road trip to the...

Ü30 party last night was nice but the lighting, music, and DJs left a lot to be desired. A LOT! The doormen were really professional and courteous. Cashier and coat check were also very friendly. The waitstaff and bartenders were excellent and very good at their jobs. The women's bathroom was relatively clean but could use remodeling to match the rest of the club's ambiance. The dress code is not as strict as described in other reviews. Last night seemed to be a casual dress code night. Think business casual. The dress code in a nightclub is always dress to impress versus a bar's dress code is come as you are. This is definitely not a bar. It's a nightclub.

The prices for a nightclub were very reasonable. Entrance, coat check, three Radlers cost only 25€. This is really reasonable for a nightclub IMHO. Cudos to Perkins. You have a nice establishment but please find...

We paid online, group of 5. We drove about 40 km to get there. Arrived at about 21:00, got in and sat at a table on the left. Bought some shots and long drinks. Soon after, waiter came and told us to get up, we're not allowed to sit unless we pay 400 euros. He did the same to all other persons at other tables. Even after 3 more hours, still all the seats and tables empty and nobody allowed to sit unless paid 400 euros for drinks. We left at around 3 am and still all sits/couches empty. I don't find it normal, we bought together drinks for about 300 euros and we had to stand, there were no seats even at the bar, and not allowed to occupy a couch at a table without upfront agreeing to 400 euros. You also have to pay for your coat, since you have no couch to let it near you and there's also no parking available, you have to get lucky and find a free spot...
