Went in with a friend and although we sat and talk the whole time, I had a really cool time. Great decoration, nice toilets, two dance floors, although the music kinda mixes because of the size of the place.
The staff was professional enough, although the bar was a bit small and sometimes they can't hear because it's right in the center of the dance floor and you'll have to repeat yourself several times. Also note they don't do pints, only cans. If you're a Guinness drinker, don't expect to find it here.
When me and my friend went in the first thing he said he was: "This is like what gay bars shown in documentaries and movies look like".

The best thing about this place is that it's not The Joiners (only joking, I know it’s forbidden to say anything against that old dump). I have been to East bloc quite a lot and it’s pretty good. Meat on Saturday 29 Jan was a good laugh. The Friday night (disco fag bar) varies depending on the people – sometimes excellent, sometimes a bit disappointing. I have to say that as time goes on the place is attracting more of the wannabe cool try hards – i.e. the people who have wrecked this part of town and forced us all out into dalston etc.

Just checked out their wesbite and they go on about being good value. This from a place that charges £4 for luke warm cans of beer! That aside this is a welcome addition and I hope that it isn’t totally swamped by the bridge and tunnel crowd for a while longer.
