    Glydegate, Bradford…read more BD5 0BQ 01274 747494 This nightclub is up in the 'west end' of bradford which is the clubbing part of the city. Its quite a good night out but can get overrun with young teenyboppers which dont make a good atmosphere sometimes. The club itself is very nicely decorated inside and it is huge. The club is split into different themed sections which give it a feel of being different clubs. Monday and Tuesday are the quiet nights but the other nights all have a theme to them - like the students night 'show us ya monkey' on a wednesday which is great fun. Fridays is usually 2 for 1 night which gets very busy as you can imagine. It is free to get in before 11 - after that i think it is £2 but i could be wrong as am usually drunk by that time and can never remember. The club is lovely inside and the toilets are unique and huge and are always kept nice and clean and tidy. The staff are usually lovely but there are one or two bouncers who are quite miserable and be prepared to be asked for i.d as they do that a lot. The music is usually up to date dance, charts, etc, but they do different theme events now and then like 'the ministry of sound' night which gets very busy.

    Quite a good club which is quite large inside. The interior is well lit with some good lights over…read morethe dance floor which is quite spacious. The club is nice and tidy and clean and has a relaxed atmosphere but does become quite busy which then gives a party atmosphere. You do have to queue to get in but it isnt that long a wait. They have plenty of promotions on the beers and wines and spirits and bottles of which they have loads of. The staff are nice and friendly with the exception of the doorstaff or bounchers whichever you call them, they are quite arrogant but i suppose they have to be in their job. The toilets are kept nice and clean too.

    I had a wonderful time at this club. A mixed crowd of all. The music was amazing. It has a lot of…read morewood so the sound was actually great. They don't serve food as far as I know. The night I was there it had DJ's, but I believe they have live music too on other nights. The area is filled with other great spots and restaurants. So you could grab a bite elsewhere and then head here to dance the night away.

Yes, HiFi -it's one of my favourite places to bust out my best grooves. (I'm not suggesting they're good, but I'm sure they're a spectacle.) I'd not been back for some time, so when the opportunity arose this weekend, I couldn't turn it down. As I was arriving, some of my friends had left, and in some respects I can see why. It was absolutely heaving, and of course the music was incredibly loud, as standard. It's difficult, as I was certainly getting the rage whilst trying to make my way to the toilets, or the bar -it's one thing for a venue to be heaving (this is fine, and can elevate the fun), but it's entirely another when you're battered and shoved beyond belief. Perhaps it was because it was so late, and so folk were drunk, but there were rather a lot of pushy people and manners had almost entirely left the building. It costs nothing to say 'excuse me'! Anyway, rant over. That being said, once I managed to wade to the bar, things got a lot better. The chap who served me was lovely and friendly, and beer in hand, I managed to find a spot with my comrades where we could dance with abandon. Top tip - the steps by the stage seemed to be the most spacious throughout the evening! And that brings me to the music. It's always utterly fantastic - for all the funk, soul and reggae that you could want, this is the place to come. I've not danced for a solid few hours in quite a while, and can absolutely say that it was fantastic, and in spite of the crowds I'm hoping to come back again soon. Drinks wise, I didn't really check out all the options, but there's a fairly decent range to suit most tastes. Price wise it was £4 in at about 1am, perhaps more earlier on, and the drinks are standard -expect to pay about £3+ per drink. I agree with Ben, the door staff are quite the jobsworths, though this keeps out the riff raff, for which I'm grateful! (And, they are friendly, don't get me wrong.) The toilets were in a bit of a poor state, but having been in much worse, it's not all that bad. Essentially, the biggest draw is of course the fantastic DJs, live music and comedy at their other regular events, friendly staff and having a right old dance. Highly recommended for a proper night of fun. Just be patient with the crowds!

    Before it's renovation last year, Mint Club was one of the places I did my best to steer clear of…read morewhen going on a big night out in Leeds. Unfortunately for me, my friends are all big drum 'n' bass/dubstep heads and we ended up going more often than not, to see the latest underground names - generally pitching themselves up at Mint Club, who charged an extortionate entry fee as there'd only be us and a handful of others who knew what we were getting ourselves in for. Thankfully, the heavy bass remains. But everything else has been done up; from the DJ to the bar to the toilets to the dancefloor. It's still not the best nightclub in Leeds but it never was, it had it's niche market and it still does. There's novelty value for the non-dance heads too. The seats are enlarged polos.

    Oh the joys of small clubs. For me the intimate experience, attention to detail and all round…read moreatmosphere blasts the so called "super clubs" out of the shark infested water. Don't agree? Well head down to the Mint Club and reassess. This really is a true clubbers dream. I always loved it as a venue but since it's The Mint Club has undergone a £500, 000 refurbishment, I'm becoming quite obsessed with the place. The sound system is immense and a cutting edge lighting system called a 'DISCO PANEL' which features in the 'Watergate' club, Berlin has been installed. This claims to be the first of its kind in this country. Whatever, it works the club like a dream. The sounds served up tend to stay away from mass market convention, offering Tribe House and minimal Techno. Indeed, it regularly boasts the DJ set of Techno uber God Sven Vath. Try not to bounce off the walls when he's in town. The Mint Club also welcomes back Asylum and Filth to its roster of Saturday club nights along with a whole host of quality mid-week and Friday club nights. It's full-on action and no room for ear plugs or dance fatigue. On top of this the bars, DJ booth, seating areas, dance floor, toilets, and outside area have all been up graded to a very high specification. Swanky, underground and a priority of quality over quantity, win win all the way.

    There are much better clubs than Oceana in Leeds, but, unfortunately, there are few that are…read morebigger, or busier, than this sprawling establishment on the corner of the Merrion Centre. Sprawling was the only word I could think of to describe Oceana Leeds; there must be dozens of rooms in this place, all decorated differently - dancefloors, boudoirs, ski lodges - but rather than endearing you to the club, this just annoys you as you spend half your night on the move, or trying to find friends you've lost in the labyrinth. They do have a student night where some drinks are ridiculously priced (80p), but this gets overcrowded, meaning that the mazy interior becomes even more hazardous. The real gripe most people have with this place, however, is the way it can up its prices with no notice for one random evening. For example, on Easter bank holiday Monday, the entry fee went up to £9, and you struggled to find drinks cheaper than £3.50, which, for Leeds, is a bit shocking.

    Ok, so essentially Oceana, in theory, when all rooms are open for the offering, provides the client…read morewith seven themed rooms, separate spaces, clubbing/bar experiences. Due to size and central location this was my buddy's reason for organising his birthday bash up here. Granted, it's definitely got size on it's side, it's easy to get to, there's plenty of dance space, and once inside and all gathered together in collective buddy solidarity, there's an actual properly DJ for you to get your groove thing on. Or down. Or jiggy with. That sounds wrong. I got change from a tenner for paying to get in, and compared to some of the places I've been to in Manchester, for a large city centre club, I didn't find that too unreasonable. Some of my Yorkshire counterparts tended to disagree, but c'est la vie right? Also, if you can grab a flyer off one of the promotions people, and you get there before 10pm, entry's fiver. So I didn't think it was too bad at all. Inside it's absolutely massive, and depending on what night you go in, you can have access to up to seven different spaces. Oceana seems to have taken some influence from the bigger clubs in Ibiza like Pacha, that have separate themed spaces for patrons to dive into and enjoy, rooms I remember were the Ski Lodge, the New York Disco, the Venetian Ballroom, and Secret Garden. Drinks weren't too hard on the wallet either, a nice bogof incentive before the night hit the midnight hour. Once you do hit the midnight hour you've got three hours of partying left, as kickout time is decent 3am. Good times were had by all, not marvellous, but not hideous either.
