I was in Heaven on Saturday (01/11/08) and this was my first time in there. There was no queue to get in which was great, just the searching of the bags. B4 hand though it is good to walk around Soho and see if you can grab the flyers or wristbands.
Queue for the cloak room was quiet long but moved very quickly. Only thing I didn't like about it was the toilets. There was leaks everywhere and 1 toilet for the women! Very small aswell!
RnB room was wicked spent most of the night in here, stood up by the fans and sofas so made everything more comfortable.
Main room was also good, dancers were wicked and they had water spraying on u and massive balloons flying about!
Very big club would recommend it, but only if you've had a lot of sleep the night before!
heaven well what can i say, ive been going for more years than i can remember,well over 20 and i have to say ,its been reinvented many times over the years ,but at present it has hit a all time low.popcorn on wednesday has gone so downhill i may not bother. sat.is even worse!!!!! the place has turned into a place for tourist not london clubbers. as for monday the attitude of punters stinks!.but the thing that pisses me off is paying £1 just to go outside 4 afag wot a ripoff sort it out heaven your losing many many punters that have been loyal punters over the years.p.s it gives me no pleasure to write this way about a club that has been such a large part of my life.
You want know how cool it is?You have to go there is amazing,,,anyway, i ggo there almost every monday, and i really enjoy it...I mind really enjoy it...I love that club, beautiful HEAVEN...*((xavier))*
Although Heaven is considered as one of the best gay clubs in London, what destroyed my mood was the way that the security treated me on the entrance. During searching my hand-bag, the security was very rude. He was throwing things away without even asking me, he was doing rude questions to me about things i had in my bag like tissues and chewing-gums and when he saw that i didnt like the way he was treating me, he said that he wouldnt let me in the club. Anyway, the point is that he was extremely rude, not only him but almost all the security staff of this club.
I left with my friends, annoyed by his behaviour and since then we havent been there again.
I believe that the way that clubs treat their customers, is much more important than good music and a good venue. Why paying so much money, to go to a club where its staff does not respect you?
I am usually very picky with clubs, I didn't even like mos but i LOVED heaven.
The staff is very polite and the crowd is also pleasant - the dancers are amazing! =p and the music is great!
Would go there every week!
fabulous place, excellent music, friendly ppl and staff, stunning dance performances, PERFECT.
I go to Heaven on a Monday (Free with NUS) and always have a great time. The upstairs R&B room is my favourite. It gets very hot so buy bottled water from the bar and try and stand by the fans. There aren't enough of these though!
Unfortunately even though it's a gay club, there are lots of straight men in there who try it on with you, so me and my friends always just pretend to be lesbian couples and tell them to sod off :P
Be warned, you'll struggle to get phone signal in here so make arrangements with friends to meet up previously!
Heaven is great but the clientele are crap. I go on Wednesdays for Fruit Machine, and all I get is attitude. Especially from South London females. There's no need for it
Other gay women will know what I mean.
You get the butchies staring at you with the whole, Fu**k me or fight me glance.
Get over it, the world doesn't owe you anything because you're gay, and the world doesn't expect you to be hostile as your defence mechanism against homophobia. Remember you're in a gay club.
Doubt I'll go again for a while.
