I heard so much about the Candy Bar and was very disappointed when I got there. Un-friendly, cliquey staff, over-priced drinks and absolutely FILTHY toilets: the sanitary disposal units were overflowing, horrible dank smell of urine and really poor lighting.Candy Bar seriously needs to sharpen up!

we went to the candy bar last week and it is much more friendly now, last year i went and it was really clicky, now the drugs and attitude are gone it has a much better vibe.

this one of the few places i would choose to relax or have a dance in the west end.

The Candy Bar, now under new 'management' (if that's what they want to call themselves), is totally out of touch. The new staff are inexperienced, unfriendly, VERY RUDE and the place in general has a very bad vibe. Plus, why is everyone there South African now? Candy Bar is just...really really bad. Don't go there if you want a good night out with your friends/lovers. The women there are old, washed out South African lesbians; all seemed to be friends with the staff so you can imagine what it was like being there. The place was empty (all the cool kids are now heading off in other directions...Trash Palace, Ghetto or good ol' G.A.Y.). Drinks are expensive, more so than before. The music is something you'd hear coming out of the phones of 14 year old girls on the bus - unrecognizable and 'do your head in'. OH, and the toilets are GROSS!!! They are metal basins with piss/water everywhere, feels like pissing in prison (I'm assuming). Urgh, just don't go there. We all used to love Candy, but now....it's a horrible, dingy place with horrible people, horrible staff. I feel sorry for anyone going there who things it might be like the old days. Don't make the same mistake we did! DON'T GO!!!

you must have been at a different place. The new management is wonderful and fresh faced and fun. Maybe a little inexperienced, but who cares they are hot. All the old aggressive bar staff and managers from before are gone - thankfully, along with the discrimination. The Candy Bar is just a pleasant place to hang out with friends and have a good time. Obviously you have something against South Africans, personally I think their accent is sexy. Hug a SAFFA today - they make your dreams come true! - Report
