I celebrated my birthday here with my friends.
At the beginning everything ok but then as soon as we went to the dance floor and was dancing with my friends, the bouncer came to me and said that I had to leave...when I asked why he just grabbed my arms and took me out. My friends followed me obviously and my birthday was ruined. I do not know why I was evicted and nobody even told me. Apparently my friend dropped a drink on a shelf while dancing. Fortunately I did not book an area for which they charge an unproportioned price for that the club really is.
I will never go back to that place, really disappointed and my birthday was totally a flop because we had too leave at 1:00!!
Points -100 for the club and staff.
The unfriendliest venue ever.

I have had organised my birthday party at your place on Saturday 24/09 in this place.

Lets start with negatives:
- I have had 15ppl on my guest-list. We started to gather at 7pm.
A few of my friends joined us at lather hours, around 9pm
After the party I had to find out that those who turned up later have been charged at the door regardless they did say they are on my guest list.

I was quite surprised and rather embarrassed, as I have been advised that we will have free entry since I have booked it in advance.

- The cocktails they provide are not nice at all. I am not sure the bar people have any idea about cocktails.

They basically poured different ingredients together into one glass, no styling and none of them tasted anything like real cocktails.

The place is a lot smaller than imagined and the dance floor overcrowded and tiny.

Positives:
- We had a good time, and was happy with overall service.
- My friends organized their birthday package surprise for me on the spot, which I found quite nice they were able to provide and delivered nicely!
- Also was glad to see that the staff was looking after the cleanness of the venue rather well and been very friendly!

Would return for a drink for their happy hours (5-8pm), but not the best place for birthday or special event.

I've always found the majority of the staff here to be quite welcoming, reasonable and friendly, at times it can get a tad coyote ugly which is cool. And why shouldn't they be? With more people checking reviews before they head to a new venue, it would be prudent to fix their shortcomings in what could make or break a venue, no? I would've given four stars if the music was just OK (commercial and 80s/90s), and on any given night you can expect to hear thriller at least three times, but given that its popular for stags and hens its reasonable to assume people want that nostalgia. Crowd is often friendly, work groups and students alike present a much warmer atmosphere compared to bigger name clubs where you find a lot of pretentious poseurs strawberry moons makes a refreshingly welcome change. Can get quite cluttered in there at times and the dancefloor is small. Overall if you're looking for a relaxed atmosphere where you can dance if you want to, strawberry moons delivers.

I went to this place with friends for a birthday which they had booked, so it was free for us to get in (which is always a great start).
The bar staff was rude and full of them selves, but the music was good the atmosphere was great, the drinks price was about the same as anywhere in the west end.

Over all a good night...!

Now this place is all about what you're after, If you want to have chilled drinks outside get hear early (plus the drinks are 2for 1 before 8pm )if you just want to go mad and party to songs you know all the words to then come here late or at the weekend. Yes its not cheap or "classy" but it doesn't pretend to be either. Its unpretentious, dirty, cheesy and good fun. The dancing Bar-staff are good too. When I'm in the west end with a group after 9/10pm this is one of my top3 go-to venues

Only thing is don't forget your ID they are super strict on the door and at the bar-my mate got ID'D 4 times in one night!! And don't piss off the security by taking your drink on the dance floor-they don't like that

Recommend for Hens/Stags and Birthday parties-or if you are a mixed age range group. just want to have a laugh or fancy a go on the pole!

Don'T come if you dont like Cheese, Busy clubs, West end prices after 8pm, Fancy Dress or queuing for entry if you get there late at the weekends!

After hearing that D12 were supposed to perform here last night (now that I think of this clearly, I see that this was a ridiculous notion from the start) I telephoned the bar, and they happily told me to arrive any time before 10pm, and I would be fine to get in and enjoy the music.

After getting there at around 8pm, and drinking for a while, they then actually made everybody LEAVE the bar, to queue up again outside! This was to apparently scan everybody's I.D. Why this could not have been done from the start, I will never ever know.

So that was their ploy to then charge money to get back in (to where the £29 drinks I had just bought had been"put aside" for me). It was only £10, but for a London nightclub, this was just a cheap way to wring some extra cash out of people.

The doorstaff were friendly enough, and the bar staff were average. Very expensive for a bar that does not offer any more than music where they will play a song for literally 15 seconds then play the next song.

To top off the glorious night, D12 of course were not there, but I suppose that's my fault for being stupid enough to believe anything on a "promoters" night. All in all, An expensive hangover.
