I went there last saturday with my BF. I hadnt been there for years-due to living abroad.As we entered I was asked to empty my pockets by a very intimidating young woman who,after I did empty my trouser pockets proceeded to shove her hands into my other pockets and extract anything she could find.I tried to engage her in conversation to soften the experience but she was monosyballic and certainly wasnt interested. Inside the club was nearly empty. At 1AM we decided to leave. There was no atmosphere.We went to the coatcheck to get our coats. The coatcheck girl shouted aggressively and rudely to my BF for his initials when he didnt hear her first time. Outside there were about 6 people waiting to get in.We then went to Barcode where we were frisked just like an airport frisk, and greeted with a welcome at the booth to pay and again when we left in our coats. We had a good night then.My bacardi coke in Fire was £5 and £3.80 in Fire.I have no personal/financial interest in Barcode. I will not return to Fire.

I only went once. It was full of Chinese wanna-be gangsters and gay blokes kissing on the dance floor. Really bad hard-house. Really terrible club.

Currently closed for 'refurbishment.'
Rumours are that it won't be re-opening.

Fire Club is a cult club and it always delivers the best parties in London. Many people who go to Fire are dedicated to Fire as it provides fantastic fun and above all safety for clubbers comes first! It is well known the atmosphere in Fire is brilliant and I must say I always feel that I have learnt something new about people and socialising after I've been there. Clubing in Fire is not only about clubbing, it is quite educational for me. I wouldn't be surprised if Fire becomes next mtv venue.

I was horrified by this club, I was out on a 21st for a female friend of mine. there were 4 girls and 3 men out. We had previously been somewhere else but had not enjoyed it and my BF had heard of this place to we went to check it out. we arrived and were told to wait as far away from the entrance as possible and then after 10 minutes in the biting cold a rude foreign bouncer came over and said that he would only let gay males into the club and that we had too many women. We were enraged by this, that narrow mindedness like this still exists and that a club can actively discriminate against women (be them gay or straight) and straight men. I understand the need for people to have gay mens nights in which it is promoted as gay men but you should never be allowed to actively discrimate like this and I will never darken Fire's doors again!

in response to this post, they have gay cruise nights. these are men only and because of the nature of the night, straight men would not enjoy it! it is not discriminating, it is a fetish; with door policy and dress codes to accommodate this.

Go to Fire to experience what in many years time will be looked back to as a cult club. experience what its like being part of the Fire family.

Fire is a club which many regulars regard as their second home. Go to Fire to meet people of all sexual orientations, backgrounds, ages and nationalities - dancing in peace and sheer joy as the rays of sunshine light up the vauxhall skyline outside.

Fire is where the music reigns supreme, the Djs talk to you, the staff look after you. Go and marvel at the diversity of people around you. clubbing in Fire is like being in dream - but its actually real.

Just one warning. Fire is addictive. Go to experience the unique vibe but once you go, just be-careful that you cannot resist its pulling power ,which is what happened to me for two years - and i just ended up there on too many occasions that i can count because i couldn't resist the magic of Fire - at least for one last time.....until the next time.

I love this place but I really dislike a couple of the bouncers who make you empty your wallet and pockets.

I have a very small credit card wallet they even made you take everything out including money?

It doesn't make sense and it got a bit impersonal... I felt embarrassed by this.

Majority of my friends have stopped going there because of them. Its a killer and it really spoils the evening every time they do that.

Great place but I wished they changed their style in policing or monitoring the venue. More of a friendly and warm approach.

I felt they couldn't care less because it is a popular venue.I hope you guys don't mind with my honest opinion.

So tel me how it is now. I have not been since November of 07..

The last time i went there it was very "grungy". You could say I REALLY want to go back.

But have not had the time. Cheers William

That's simply because there are so many drugs at the venue, they are required to be strict about searches by the police. If they don't, they lose their license.

I went to fire on nye this year for the first time. I was apprehensive at first because i assumed it would be heaving with nothing but topless, muscular, gay men but to my surprise the crowd tuned out to be a great mix of people, straight, gay, girls, guys. Unfortunately i couldnt drink that night but i have to say, i had one of the best nights of my life! The music was literally amazing- electro, i did not sit down once from the hours of 10pm to 6am it was so good. The lights in one of the rooms are wicked but it was a little too much for me, messing up my head!
Pretty much everyone in the club was on drugs but i think even if your not into that you would have a wicked time there.

I have been going to FIRE for years now and have never ever found a club in London with the same atmosphere, music or people!! It is absolutely fantastic. I don't mind travelling 50 minutes to get there because it is always worth it!!! And it is one of the few clubs that stay open after 6/7 am in the morning!!!The crowd is mixed - some people may think that FIRE is a gay venue, but believe me there are enough straight/bi people in there for the boys and girls!!!!Try it out!!!

I absolutely love this place!!!I live in N16 but it is more than worth the trip and the £15 to get in. The DJ's wrap you in chains and make you a slave to the beats which reverberate through your body and soul.Great crowd. Always friends to be made. Great staff. Medics on hand too should you party a little too hard. If you love to dance, make new friends and spending all week on a high from the weekend then this place is for you!

Are there many girls there? Most gay bars have the majority of men, and that's really not what i'm looking for. Also, What is the age range? Most Lesbian bars are suitable for 25+ I'm 18 and i'd like to visit a Gay nightclub to meet other lebsian women my age

I can't think of a club that I would rather be in! The guys there are hot, the music is pumping and the staff are the best club staff I have ever come across. There has never been a time that I have been to Fire and not had a good time regulary leaving at close.



Yes it may be a tad crowded at times and difficult to get to the bar but that just adds to the experience. My favourite nights are Juicy AM and Later. And I know I will be going there fore many more years to come.

We went to Fire on a very late Thursday night last October. For 3 straight guys from Canada we found the atmostphere rather shocking at first, to say least. However, given the late hour, our drunken state and the fact that we really had little clue where we where in relation to our hotel, we decided to stick it out.



It proved to be a great choice as the music at Fire was some of the best we heard in London and by North American standards was unbelievable. The crowd, although curiously friendly, was actually whole lot of fun. Should we have wished to stray from the straight and narrow path it would have been quite easy, so if you're looking to go down that road this is the place for you. It was one of our most enjoyable and memorable nights in London even though we wouldn't have picked it in a thousand years. If 3 straight guys can have fun at Fire, anyone can!

From the end of last year til now I can't take my foot of Fire's floor. It seems like it is the only club in London where the DJs are fully interacting with the crowd. My favourite night is Juicy, but A.M. does the job as well. Can't think about any other club with the same vibe as Fire.

Fire is a perfect club playing cutting edge dirty, twisted electro house music before the mainstream get there remixing hands on it! It is great for anyone to enjoy. Fire is the best club and getting bigger! Go there!

A:M at Fire on a Friday is top! If you are looking for a gay night out with all of the thrills, you are in for a treat. DJ Terry Bryan warms you up in the main room with more tunes piped from DJs till 12pm. Check it out, Fires amazing.

Fire has become the best clubbing experience in London. The DJ's are world class and the lights and sounds are just amazing! You can pretty much party non stop from Thursday night to Tuesday morning. The best party in town is at Fire on a Sunday as it's out of this world. Funky tunes, a real crowd and Sunday's weren't ever supposed to be this naughty!

I didn`t feel safe at all at Fire from 10pm to 7.15am. It's the only place I've been to in London so far that stays open till after 7 in the moning. However, the bar at Fire was terrible - you have to push to get a drink. Not forgetting the music at Fire - it was nuts.

If you are over 30 and non-latino, don't bother about Fire on a Thursday. It is full of attitude and ageisem. Better off getting free entry and cheaper drinks at G.A.Y.

Went to Fire on Sunday night, had a great evening with great music, until a friend was set upon by a group of small, agressive, straight drug dealers who appear to have a hold on the club, its management and the security staff - as confirmed by the club's reluctance to involve the police over the incidence or deal with those responsible. Will not be going to Fire again, and encourage everyone who enjoys a violence-free evening to do the same.

Saturday mornings are cool...wouldn't say the same about Sunday when they play hard house until 12 o'clock, but then again... Orange is nice with cool people all coming to Fire after the clubs close down in Vauxhall. It's friendly, easy - no limits I would say. And people are really cool! Good afterparty!
