If you know, you know. This place has been part of the Dunedin community for years, and it's still one of the best spots in town for a genuinely good night out. Friendly staff, strong drinks, zero attitude. It's one of those rare bars where you can come as you are -- whether you're meeting friends, people-watching from the iconic front window, or hanging on the patio (the new pool table is a fun addition ). It has roots as a longtime LGBTQ+ favorite, but today it's simply a welcoming, everyone's-invited kind of vibe. Locals love it for a reason. If you haven't been in a while, it's worth rediscovering. read more

Not my vibes, but it could be yours. I'm trying to find some place to dance, that isn't filled with young people or start dancing too late. I was really hopeful that this would be the place, but it's not. We were here from about 8 PM to 9:45 PM on a Saturday. The back patio was very busy with live music that was quite good. So if I was looking for a relaxing place to listen to live music, then this would be it. They have a food truck, they do allow smoking in the back patio, which is not my favorite, but it didn't seem like many people are doing it so I think you can avoid it if you want to. I was really hoping that there would be more dancing inside, we kept going back into check if there was anyone dancing. For the longest time there wasn't actually even anyone inside except for a few people at the bar. At around 9:40 PM, there were a couple women that started dancing, the problem was I didn't like any of the music that the DJ was playing. I didn't recognize it at all. I don't think it was new music, but it was older music that I didn't recognize. We ended up making a pivot and driving to Nash Keys, which is 10 minutes away and they have dueling pianos on Saturdays. I was disappointed that I didn't know the music, because even if there was only a few people dancing I still would've danced, but being that I wasn't a fan of the music there really wasn't any point to do it. So maybe if we had stayed later there would be more dancing, but a combination of no dancing plus not knowing the music we did not want to stick around. Again, the back patio with live music was quite nice, different vibes so it depends what you want. I probably won't come back unless it's well after 10 PM. read more

This was the exact move for our night out on a bachelorette party. They had live music and the artists were fun and interacted with the crowd. They played Allstar by smash mouth for our bride to be! The sprite in the dirty Shirley tasted like just soda water, however that is a minor issue. The outdoor area with music and food trucks was very fun. The dance floor wasn't very full but that was probably time of day. We appreciated that they followed the rules and adhered to the towns quiet hours! All in all exactly what we needed to not have to drive into Tampa and have a quieter closer to home club experience in Dunedin. read more

Blur Nightclub - group at blur - Dance Clubs Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Blur is the local nightclub in Dunedin. Visited on a Friday early afternoon while strolling down Main street. Friday afternoon they had a live musician which was nice and relaxing. Drinks not so reasonably priced, they charge extra when you ask for a Cosmo when the pour less than an ounce of a third ingredient. It gets crowded later in the evening but the DJ plays a plethora of music genres which is nice. They also have an outdoor patio with a food truck when you want to take a break. I love the big open window in front so it never gets stuffy inside the club. On Sundays they do a very nice drag show. This club is also friendly to ALL folks. read more

Stop in here while on vacation with my girlfriend and we had a blast! It was karaoke night

Great venue, overpriced. Shots are priced higher than drinks. Will pregame elsewhere in Dunedin before I buy a drink there.

Good dance club in the heart of Dunedin. Live music outside, DJ inside. Bathrooms not always the cleanest (can it NOT smell like someone peed all over the floor) and prices a little steep, but if you wanna get your dance on in Dunedin this is the best option. read more

There is something severely sketchy going on in this bar. Whether the bartenders are poorly trained and over serving already inebriated customers, or something darker is happening in here. I understand a saturday night, during the holidays people are getting drunk.... But 4 people in the same hour vomitting all over the bathrooms. Close to losing conciousness. 911 being called and security having to physically carry customers out? I have never, and I mean NEVER in my life seen anything like this. Not to mention the insane prices, horrible dj and dirty atmosphere. How and why is this place still up and running? Owner needs a reality check or just give this place up to someone who can take care of it and its customers. read more

Nestled in the forgotten heart of a small town where nothing should ever happen--but somehow everything does--is a nightclub that doesn't just bump jams. It detonates them. I walked in expecting a mild night of toe-tapping and light beer. I left a broken, blissed-out creature who had experienced euphoria so pure it bypassed my nervous system and went straight to my soul--and my bowels. From the moment the bass dropped, my body was no longer mine. My limbs flailed with the grace of a wounded animal, my hips unlocked like ancient treasure chests, and my feet betrayed years of orthopedic advice. I didn't choose to dance; the music possessed me. Somewhere between a remix of "Sandstorm" and an aggressive house cover of Dolly Parton, I transcended. And, yes, I lost a little control of everything. Worth it? Every squelchy, shame-free second. But let's talk about the people. The range. You've got college kids, retirees in sequins, a man who looked like he time-traveled from 1983 just to do the worm. It's not just a dance floor--it's a multigenerational fever dream. And it works. Nothing makes you feel more alive than doing the Macarena between someone with a student loan and someone with a pacemaker. I can't go another day without craving the way that place made me feel. It was sweet satisfaction, uncut and immediate. I still wake up in a cold sweat remembering the strobe lights and the DJ whisper-screaming "Are you READY?!" like he was commanding the tides. If you're ever within 100 miles of this blessed beacon of chaos, don't hesitate. Wear black. Bring wipes. Leave your dignity at the door. 6/5 stars. read more

I like to hang out on the back patio and listen to the live music. Drinks are way overpriced - $9 for a house vodka and club soda. We're talking about an 8 or maybe 10 oz. plastic cup filled with ice and then a little vodka and soda for $9. I'll continue to go for the music but I'm boycotting the bar. read more

Nice spot....very laid back. DJ plays all types of music from hip hop to dance. Casual dress code. Actually no dress code. Fun atmosphere and they sell food in the rear patio at reasonable prices. Closing time is 3am. read more

Blur Nightclub - Rear patio area - Dance Clubs Near Me - Dunedin, Florida

Blur was an absolute blast when we visited yesterday! While celebrating a good friends birthday, she expressed wanting to come see their monthly drag show brunch and we were able to reserve a table for our group of 7. We got there early, and found we couldn't go in until 12, but it was best to enter through the back as brunch was served from a local food truck. While we weren't super thrilled about the food quality for the meats in the burrito from that truck, it had nothing to do with the bar and we were happy and fed with lots of liquor and smoke friendly areas. Juno was the host, and she was fabulous. Lots of jokes spread throughout with several songs and lots of costume changes from both performers. Autumn was the co-host for the event, and she was just as incredible. Between the costumes, make-up, and pure athleticism, it's a show you don't want to miss if you enjoy drag shows or want to experience something new! There was opportunities for crowd participation as well that had my friends shaking their butts to earn free shots, it was a great time and everyone was super supportive. The bartenders were awesome as well, very friendly, always ready to get you a fresh drink, and had a really nice system in place for leaving a tab open. The whole establishment was very clean and there was never a line for the bathroom or lack of seating even with a good crowd inside and out. Although we're moving soon and won't be here next month, this was a fun and amazing opportunity to meet some incredible local queens and have a great time with our friends that catered to every aspect of our celebration. Couldn't have asked for a better time and better staff and hosts for this event. read more

Doormen are arrogant clowns. It's perfectly fine to ask folks for ID but they cannot even do this properly. Nothing but but mouthy, pompous asses ... how does one doorman piss off an entire line with his attitude and words. Management should be better on top of their staff ... lost of other great places near Blur ... don't waste your time unless you want some doorman to treat you poorly and talk crap to you for no reason whatsoever ... read more

( Security guy a doll!) Liz (former Bartender) Ybor City read more

Horrible and rude. Stay away the rude door guy there. Plenty of great places all around them to support locally. I'll never be back.

Date night with my husband. There is no charge to enter the club which is a plus. We got there around 9 Pm and it wasn't crowded. The music is fro80-90 and there are mix of all ages 21 and up. Inside it's a dance club and outside there is a band playing and it's more relaxed. We had a fun night. Update; we went back on a Friday night. First the clubb had some renovation to the bar area. ITs much appealing. Second, we came rot see the drag queen show. There are two shows on Friday night. At 11& 12. It was one queen show. Fun, but I am not sure I would come back for another show. Some of the people who come to dance are "interesting", I leave it with that...) read more

DJ is actually horrible. Every time I've been. They need to find someone who knows how to DJ instead of just playing one song after another. Music is horrible read more

The bartender was rude and there was no music. i was really hoping for a nice experience from the only gay bar in town but no.

Ridiculous, 8pm with 20 customers and for 2 margaritas he charged me 35$ while the menu has drinks with more ingredients for 9-12 each. read more

I come here as often as I can. Or at least, I used to. This last visit has me changing my tactic. The good: It's usually so fun. There is an outdoor patio with a food truck and heat lamps/ tables and chairs. You can still hear the music but it's at a volume that's conducive to conversation. Inside is the main bar with some seating and the dance floor. On a good night the floor is packed and the dancing doesn't stop. Ages range from 21 to 70. Everyone fits in and the majority are 21-45 I'd say. The bad: I just discovered last night that I had just happened to be super lucky the other times I'd come out. Apparently they have more than one DJ and the one from last night was borderline traumatizing. People kept leaving, numerous times we were left awkwardly swaying and looking around while on the dance floor, praying for decent music. Every single patron I spoke to was like "wtf is this nonsense??". I started sending clips to friends, a couple of whom also DJ and the responses were unanimously "yikes ". One of them was that song they usually play in Italian food commercials for Christ's sake. So on a good night this place is a 5 and on a bad night it's a 2.5. I rounded up to 4. From now on we know to check social media to see who is DJing. We will be avoiding any night that has Chris Crave . read more

This bar and their bartenders are assholes! How can a manager say to a customer that they are allowed not to serve you if you don't tip! Pay your people from the overpriced Vodka and red bulls you serve!!!! -100 stars read more

Friendly, decent bar-standard drinks, and nice bar staff. Great food in the food truck. Gets too busy on the weekends full of cute people trying to hook up, but maybe that's your thing. read more

Prices for alcohol are nightclub prices but the atmosphere is awesome. Show up early to get a table to watch the drag queen show at 10:30pm and midnight on Friday and Saturday nights. read more

I need them to bring the mirrors on the dance floor back, I can't dance I really needed that to check myself.

I have been to Blur Nightclub twice now. The first time was St Patrick's Day in March, and the last time was last weekend. My first experience with Blur was positive, my second not so much. Dunedin was hopin for St Patrick's Day this year. We saw the long line to get in and figured why not. My friends and I hung out on the patio most of the evening and met some nice folks while hanging out and drinking adult beverages. My first visit I would give a 5-star. But that is why I typically do not complete a Yelp review on a first visit. My second trip to Blur last weekend wasn't as pleasant. We started inside by ordering drinks and danced a little. We were pushed around several times by extremely drunk folks. So we decided to head outside to the patio where it wasn't quite as hectic. Or so we thought. I found us a table so we could relax. Within 10 minutes I hear some yelling from the table behind us. At first I thought they were drunk and just talking loud. But then it escalated very quickly. I saw the guy that was yelling who was the same guy that then stood up and threw a punch to another guy at his table. As soon as I saw the guy stand up I yelled at my friends to get up and move out of the way. We then proceeded to see the guy who was punched thrown out of the club. I'm not sure if the other guy was a regular or what was going on but this did not impress us. Not just the fight, but the fact that the guy that got punched was the one thrown out. Not to mention we went up to the security guy at the back of the patio to let him know what was going on and he simply gets on his walkie-talkie and calls for someone to assist. Instead of going directly to the situation as it was occurring. We quickly left this club and went to one next door. Night clubs should be more selective of the clientele they allow through the door. For one bad seed you let in three good seeds walk out the door. read more

My girlfriend and I stopped by on our last night in town and had a great time! Service was awesome, lots of space outside on the patio and a completely different feel from the indoor dance floor. Awesome place, will definitely be back on our next trip! read more

The drinks are good. The last time anyone who works here was nice to me was in 2019. Otherwise the staff treats you like you're bothering them -- no greetings, no smiles, not helpful in any way. The only reason I'll go back is if someone in my party insists. read more

The vibe tonight was amazing. DJ - LUV was on fire as usual and you can tell the difference - please keep him on as a regular - the crowd was loving him as well as his partner - totally different vibe for we djs read more

Love Blur, but holy sh*t is the DJ BAD (or maybe the playlist). Consistently. Every single time, me and my party make fun of how awful the remixes/ music is. We always wind up leaving early because of the music. Please hire someone else I beg you. PLEASE. read more

This place denies my 24 and 25 year old friends with out of state ID's because the General Manager refuses to come and double check an ID

It's a very popular place and dancing starts from 10 to 11 PM. There's a pool table in the back where you can shoot pool. There is outside dining behind the pool table. There is inside dining in the front. The dance floor fits about 20 people comfortably. read more

Fun, clean nice staff. Plenty of seating in case you want to. Two large bars and a food truck!

This pla e is really fun. The happy hour is great! Perfect spot to people watch and have a good time!

the dj plays intense edm music which made everyone leave the dance floor last night. we tried to request a song to honestly help him out because the crowd did NOT like the music he was playing. the terrible music honestly ruined our night and we ended up leaving early because we couldn't stand the hardcore dupstep. this is supposed to be a gay bar and that music is not what the people want to hear. GET A NEW DJ PLEASE add flavor like bad bunny or any spanish music or even some good sing along throw backs honestly blur, hire me. I can help play music. add a little mamma mia or some black eyed peas come on now read more

The place is small and crowded. The outside patio area is open, I liked that there was a bar inside and outside of the place, as well as two entrances. There's is also a food truck outside in the patio along with a pool table that's pointless to play as people hog it up. It's a place to socialize outside and drink, but not to dance. My friends and I don't smoke, it was NOT a pleasant experience being surrounded by so much of it.. We ended up going next door, another much better bar. read more

The quaint town of Dunedin has a decent nightlife! While the breweries and restaurants are great, if your looking for dancing, this is the spot! This "gay friendly" night club is small, but fitting for the town. It's not unusual for the club to be packed on a Friday or Saturday. If it gets to hot dancing in the club, you can take a step out on their back patio. This tends to be a bit quieter, and you may be able to snag a table! On hot Florida nights, they also provide a large fan to keep their patrons cool. There is also a second bar out there. The back patio is open and It links to Kelly's and the Chicaboom Room. Definitely a great place for a good time! read more

DRAG QUEEN BINGO! Need I say more? Traila Parks and Natasha Richards host this weekly event, and let me tell you, it is not for the prudish. These "girls" really do pull out all the stops to make it a fun night to be had. If you win in one of the early games, you get to spin the prize wheel which can net you anything from a "Tea bagging" to drinks on the house. We won one game and spun the wheel only to win long island ice teas! There were some awesome drink specials on Skittles and starbusts, and while they sound delicious, I didn't have any. Some beers were very cheap as well. It was a fun evening and I look forward to becoming a regular. There is a drawback though... because it is a bar, there is smoking allowed on the inside. If you're not a smoker, you need to be aware of this in advance. read more

Blur was meh! I know I have not been to a dance club in while. I use to live at them. It was in a totally different city with a totally diff vibe, but still. The whole idea is to forget where the hell you are, & live and breathe the kick ass music. I love some fun dance and techno music. This music, I can not even describe it, but all I could say was it sucked. I felt awkward here. Unlike every other music I hear, this music did not make me happy. I had a shot. It was pretty good. Perhaps if I had more, it would not have had mattered, but nope. read more

I think Caitie O. hit the nail on the head with her review. This is one of the few times where I actually have nothing to add out of what has already been posted to this business. La Chica and I rolled up in here after grabbing a slice from Tony's across the street because the bouncers outside were practically encouraging us to do so and we had a good time. It was 45 minutes before closing, which was just enough time to throw a few back, bust a move and head home. I like the the music and the staff, and will definitely be back. That rhymed... watch out Stacy Z! read more
