16 of us flew over from Dublin and attended there on Saturday just gone for a 30th Birthday. We had made a booking online in which there was a little mix up. But this was swiftly resolved before we got there. We were escorted to our reserved area. From word go we couldn’t have possibly been looked after any better. The Staff were fantastic. Especially Bar Supervisor Ega? (I may have got that name wrong, sorry!). Super super night. Definitely recommend getting the Giant glasses and blow up guitars! Cocktail Sharers are a brilliant idea too! We also won the dance off which was hilarious! Great venue for lots of cheesy entertainment! Dirty Dancing on the giant screens while you dance – genius! Also I believe they have a 90’s bar which we will be checking out for sure! Please bring one to Dublin!! We are booking our flights over for our next trip! Thanks to Jamie and Ega for a wonderful night! Kind regards, Helen

Went to Reflex last weekend. Usually good have been several times. But was told new management have taken over. Rubbish, full of teenagers. staff could not care less about customers. All they want is your money and they pack as many people is as possible. Will not be going back. Shame cos it used to be great.

I visited Reflex in Watling Street last month for my birthday and would strongly recommend Reflex if you are planning a special night out. I called the week before and spoke to a gentleman called Gary regarding reserving an area for the evening - I wanted to book quite a large group and thought I would have problems like I did at a few other places I had called previously to Reflex but Gary was so helpful it made the process so easy. On the night of my birthday we arrived to a long queue but had no problem what so ever in getting in as Gary had made sure that everyone in my party was on the guest list. The Door staff were very thorough but really friendly I didn't feel intimidated at all (like you do at other clubs in the area). We found our area straight away and had such a brilliant time. They have lots of bar staff on so you don't have to queue up long for drinks and the music was cheesy just right for Reflex. I would really like to thank Gary and the Reflex staff for making my birthday so brilliant. I will definitely be going there again. One last thing, you need to check out the dancing competition on a Saturday night! It is so good! Even if you don't want to join in, watching is just as fun. Enjoy people!

This place is rubbish. The door staff are ignorant and impolite. I was kept waiting for ages before being let in just so I would have to pay more.

The video screens were showing a film rather than music videos. There were tacky extras like young guys walking around shirtless, giving shots to women. I couldn't wait to leave.

Went to this club last night for a friends birthday. Booked without any problems. Door staff were really friendly, especially number 9 (who was gorgeous). A great night was had by all, will definately be going back. Thanks for a great night.

What a load of b****ks! I made a booking on line for my hen night, eventually. Got a call back! Anyway that was fine all booked! Booked in good time! When I got to the doors, my name wasn't on the list? So didn't get my Q jump or free bottle of bubbly afterall! Also, my step father was 50 last year, got asked for id and was refused entry because he didn't have this! Hahaha! Pathetic! Never going back!

I went to Reflex last Friday night and think this club is great. The music was cheesy, drinks were cheap and the staff are so friendly.
Security staff get the 5 stars though especially number 9 - he is so fit!

A potentially fantastic 80s night out was damaged by over-zealous heavy-handed security staff. We were celebrating the engagement of a couple, one of whom was almost thrown out for standing on the stairs. Some other guests left at this point, frustrated with the way this was handled. Other friends who had made great efforts to dress up and travel far, were not even allowed in. Security found petty reasons (based on gender/time/clothing/etc) to deny entry. We won't be going back and unfortunately I wouldn't recommend this venue to anyone.

I called to get my group on the guest list - the person on the other end was very polite and helpful. I called back again a week later just to check the booking and add another person to the group - and again the person was friendly and polite and it was no problem to make a little change to my booking.

When we arrived we were running a few minutes late (bloody weekend tubes) but the bouncers were very friendly and still allowed us to keep the booking - which offered QJump and £3.00 entry.
Once we got inside I thought the decor was great, completely 80s appropriate and the music was exactly what you'd want. The DJ did requests and shout outs, and the dance competition at midnight was really good!! I did participate but in the cold light of day I wish I hadn't!! loads of people dressed up, and the mood was really good. It was busy in places but there was no pushing or shoving - everyone had a good time.

£1 to check coats was very reasonable - again the staff were great.

There were a few members of staff just generally around, which I thought was very good for keeping areas clear, particularly the stairs / toilets.

Towards the end of the night one of my group was a bit worse for wear - the bouncers were exceptional in the way they dealt with the situation. They let us go outside for a while and then come back inside once he was feeling a bit more sober. They were very polite, helpful and most of all friendly!

Only 2 minor niggles - could do with a few more bar staff as service could be a bit slow, and it is a bit pricey. Although for London the prices aren't extortionate, they aren't the bargain prices advertised on the main website - I expect these are just special offers.

Would recommend and I am definitely planning another visit. (with more money in my pocket and less of a desire to humiliate myself in the dance competition...)
