People kicked off inside, were pushing loads of people off the dance floor, I'm quite a big guy so I leaned backwards and held my ground and carefully drove backwards to protect my group. Bouncers come into the dance floor telling everyone to chill and have a good night. They leave. Next thing I know I'm being grabbed by 3 bouncers who intimidated me and got me to leave by force without reason or discussion. The group that was inciting the violence didn't get kicked out, whereas the lone guy trying to protect his friends was. Your security need to be able to see the whole picture rather than just find the easiest person to blame for an incident. The bouncers gave no opportunity for discussion or reasoning, they didn't even give me the opportunity to retrieve my expensive jacket from the cloakroom, even though they could see I had a wrist band on. I was waiting outside for my friends after I was forcibly removed without justification, and the group that incited the violence came outside and began to taunt me and try to threaten me, and your security did nothing. Thank you for a shocking ending to a genuinely fun night.
EDIT AS FOLLOW UP TO OWNER REPLY: It would have been roughly 1AM in the first/main room. In the video you should also be able to see that I attempted to defuse the situation with the group of lads behind us who were pushing and being aggressive by calmly gesturing to them to chill out, and saying to them that we can all just calm down and enjoy the night.
From one of the people who were in my group that was being pushed around along with everyone else: "Crazy how the bouncers didn’t see them blatantly throwing weight around on purpose.
I was literally braced with (another friend's name) and granted I’m not the strongest/biggest guy in the world but I can def balance a reasonable force you’d get from tussling around in a club. They threw about 2-3 guys into us knocking me hella forward. That’s NO accident. Didn’t get kicked out btw. Crazy work."
I hope you can see that your security got the wrong guy and handled the...
Read moreMy dearies, gather 'round. I must spin you a tale of an enchanting evening at the Fever & Boutique nightclub in Exeter. While the name does sound a bit feverish and not so 'boutique-y', the experience was quite the opposite!
Now, do not be fooled by the mundane exterior. The magic happens within its walls. The music bewitching, the crowd is youthful, and the drinks, oh the drinks...potent enough to make even an old witch such as myself feel sprightly.
Enter Cydney, a delightful little sprite of a barmaid. Not just a mere mortal, but a bartender extraordinaire, who brewed concoctions that would make even my most potent potions blush. Ah, and her charm. It's as if she had been enchanted with a magic only bestowed upon the choicest of witches.
Ah, Cydney. Young, fierce, and so eager to excel. We struck quite an unusual deal, dear Cydney and I. You see, she offered her firstborn in exchange for becoming the best worker. And being an old witch with a penchant for...let's say unique ingredients in my stew, how could I resist such a tempting offer?
The Fever & Boutique nightclub in Exeter is a place that knows how to bewitch its visitors, with Cydney at the helm of the enchantment. Do make a visit. Just remember, when Cydney offers you a drink, make sure to savour it. And remember, any deals you make are non-binding…unless, of course, they’re with an old witch with a unique taste (for...
Read moreWas a bad experience, I had paid for 3 drinks which had been down on the table for quite literally a minute when staff came and took my friends drink off the table, the drink was full. After being passed around 3 staff members the boss came to speak to me and went off to look into it, sat for another 10 minutes waiting only to be told it's policy for staff to take full drinks, more or less that is what was said... bare in mind there was only 2 groups of people in that room and we were by the table close enough to atleast be asked if it's ours which it clearly was anyway, the bags were there too. The drink was very overpriced so I wasn't thrilled to have to buy another, some of the staff saw a comedy in this. Lastly I'd like to note every single cigarette bin on the "terrace" was so overflowing there's nothing you can do except throw it somewhere amidst the students all over the floor throwing up and crying. Will not be going back
Response to response: The drinks were not unattended we were by the table and pretty much ONLY people in that side of the room aside a group of 4 or 5 lads across from us, there's really no point it was made clear I won't be getting the absurd amount back that it cost me to buy the drink. Takes 2 seconds to ask someone is this drink attended, teach your staff...
