I wish I could give minus stars. I visited this place with my wife and colleague recently. What worked well? Lighting and decor Satish the manager allowed my friend who was wearing crocks since his luggage got left behind at France during transit and did not have shoes.
What did not work well? I paid a stag entry of 1500/- and I asked for the customer copy since I had to submit the same at my office. Satish very bluntly said that they don't give customer copy... I mean it is your duty to give me a copy if I ask for one, I paid for it and I have the right to ask for a receipt. I got the copy anyways. Sitting is pathetic, I have visit many pubs in Chennai and this has one of the worst seating arrangements You have to buy your drinks at the counter, that is ok because I have seen some bars do that in Pondy as well and I think they want to follow some US sit down bar theme. Bar tender was throwing an attitude, he was acting as if he was doing us a favor by serving us, I ordered for 2 beers and a Mojito and the bar tender gave me a drink with mixed tropicana juice in it.. I mean which mojito has mixed juice??? so if you are going be ready to be drink whatever the bar tender feels like serving you. I was supposed to make a call and obviously you need to find a quite place to call, I walked up and wanted to step out to make this call. I was TOLD (not requested or asked) by the bouncer not to step out since that was not allowed. Like what the F* I can't step out to make a phone call? I finally had to make this call near the window. I got back inside and left in less than 90 secs.
I went straight to Seven Sins and had a great time there.
I will highly not recommend this...
Read moreDon’t go to the place at all. Not worth a single rupee. Ambience- Located at the basement, the place looks like a dungeon with bad lighting and worst speaker seat up I’ve been in any restobar. Ears would have bled if I had stayed any longer. 0 bass and only high volume on the vocals. So it felt like the singer was shouting in your ears everytime a song is played Liquor and food- Exorbitant pricing. What costs 200-300 in well reputed bars outside for domestic liquor’s as starting price costs 700 rupees here. Bouncers- Rude and not welcoming at all. Very money minded Vibe- This place is not meant for the nights in the weekends. It’s barely filled with 15-20 people maximum. It was deserted on a Sunday night. I suppose it’s filled with people on the afternoon parties. They charged us 2.5k as stag cover informing us that the party is open till 3AM. Exactly at 1AM they brought in cops and shut down the place and immediately asked to vacate. Neither did we get to spend the money we paid nor did they refund us the money. Worst management and even more worse environment to...
Read moreAfter taking a few days to think about my experience, here is my review:
Drinks - Extremely costly. Bartender won't fill the shot glass (it wasn't even 30ml) and it's mixed with water. BTW, it was ₹450 for a shot of cheap vodka.
Club Rules - I am a type 1 diabetic, hence I carry my insulin, glucose powder and low sugar snacks everywhere. Not in this "trendy club" though. "Drugs" were not allowed, no exceptions. They wouldn't even let me carry my glucose inside. In case of hypoglycemia, I was expected to come out and handle it or send word outside and they would "handle" the situation --- really? The guys who couldn't differentiate between insulin and heroin, or a type 1 diabetic and a junkie?
While I'm not that much of a drunk clubber, the drinks situation bothered me less than the utter ignorance of the club management towards illnesses such as diabetes.
I've attached photos of what "drug" They were afraid of letting me take inside. PS: Yes, insulin is a drug, but it's not a...
