Be warned. The place is a health hazard. The noise is extreme. Good luck talking to anyone. Or maybe I am just too old for that.

I went to Ministry on saturday to see fedde le grand was best night I have ever had there.I was on guest list got straight in the bouncers was friendly and polite us always , you dont see that in a lot of London clubs. Only down fall of the night was seeing people get taken out of the club from what I could tell was to many drugs .Other then that was a really good night cant wait for NYE

I went here with a group of friends a few weeks back for my flatmate's 20th. It was a Tuesday, which is a student night and it was a special event with Keri Hilson. We booked tickets online in advance and showed up around 10.45. The queue was absolutely massive, going around the corner and right down the street. I asked someone who worked there where the queue for people who already had tickets was and he directed me to the end of this queue. After about half an hour we were no nearer to the front so my flatmate whose birthday it was decided she'd had enough and just wanted to go home. I went to the front of the queue and asked how we could get our money back and spoke to an incredibly rude man called Hannif who apparently runs the night in question who was no help at all. I did however, learn that we'd been directed to the wrong queue, and there was in fact a much shorter queue for people who already had tickets, but we'd been sent to the wrong one by an incompetent worker- at this point my flatmates had already gone back the the station.
I've recently moved to London for university and Ministry was one of the clubs I was most looking forward to attending. This experience has, however, put me off of even thinking of going to another night there. My flatmates birthday was ruined, and we wasted money and an evening going to a club we didn't even get into.

Decided to try this club with some of my colleagues at work.
After paid £20 first I was treated like a terrorist at the entrance, but I thought that was ok, security and what not.

Later, I was dancing and accidentally hit some security guy in the stomach (you know, you are dancing, you are into it) I was about to say sorry when he pushed me and threaten me.
I decided to leave the place and went to pick my jacket only to be picked up by another security guy who called reinforcements and they kicked me off the place really rude and violently.

So, is this how they treat their costumers? I'll never go back and will tell my friends not to go there, ever.

Ministry of sound, London's renowned club (well one of the only large clubs left now!): music=good, DJs= good, barstaff...shambolic. Why do some staff in clubs think it's ok to be rude to paying customers? To the man who snapped my husband's card in two for "leaning over the bar" (no he wasn't at all drunk for anyone reading) I want your job-not literally either. Avoid this rude club

I went there this Saturday for the first time to see AfroJack and I can honestly say it was so far the best night of my life! Went there with one other friend by train, The club is a 5 ninute walk from the station, we got there about 11:30 so the que wasnt too bad. The first room was where we stayed for a couple of hours, variety of people, old and young. all friendly but we were just there to dance so it didnt matter anyway. Met a few friends around 01:00 and went into the BOX... Room is BANGING, light and bass couldnt get any better. Afro Jack came on and the room packed out. went back into the main room when Afrojack finshed for an hour or two, lights and music isnt as intense but its still up there! Went back into BOX and stayed there until it closed. The drops on every tune is massive. Anyone who doesnt like the music you aint a real clubber!!! Anyone who is a real clubber and hasnt been here GO!.. MOS is definately the one!! Will be back on Saturday for Laidback Luke! BUZZING already!!

Hi,

Been with my girlfriend on Henry Saiz last weeks Friday, pre-booked VIP table, initially wasn't sure about the music choice but as we arrived in London for weekend of fun we gone for it anyway and oh yes we have not been disappointed, first time on night out in London and in MoS, awesome club, staff welcoming and always making sure you are having fun and something to drink ;) bouncers very very friendly but reassuring at the same time making you feel safe.

Definitely coming back next time we gonna land in London. MoS will be our first choice.

Big hug to the very friendly VIP section hostesses ! :)) see you soon.

Oh! awesome drink selection ! :))

Thomas
